What a month it has been.....

So much to catch everyone up on.
Lucy finally got into pre-school at our church.  She goes Mondays and Fridays.  She is really liking it.  She also started ballet, she goes on thurs for 45 at the church as well.   We are still waiting for her shoes and tutu!

Fall is starting to hit us now in Georgia, this is the tree in out back yard, but don't worry we still have new roses blooming too!

 

We tried Ryann again in the door jumper, Lucy thought it was so funny!

 

 

We went to the Georgia-Carolina state fair on 10/19, it was a really nice day out.  We thought that Lucy was going to LOVE the rides, but she was super nervous and would only go on the merry go round and ferris wheel. 

 

 Ryann loved the jogger stroller, she looks so big!

 

 

 there's something about Lucy, LOL!

 Her hair is always NUTS!

 

 

It's not all smiles in this house, LOL!!!

 

 

 My sister Shannon went in for major back surgery on Oct 23, part of her spine I believe was broken...  I don't really have all of the details, there was a lot of big words, she is having a really hard time, as she had to miss my grandpa's funeral, please send extra prayers her way.  Her surgery was successful and now she is on the road to physical and mental recovery.  We love you Auntie Shanny!!

 

 

RIP Grandpa (bee-pa) we will always love you and miss you so very much!!

My Grandpa (dad's dad) passed away on Oct 24th...

 

Here are the best videos of Lucy playing and singing with him!

 Ryann was tired, she was resting her little head on the stroller!

 I'm tired!!!

 

8 Months Old!!!!

 

 

 

 

After being home for awhile in Charlotte, it was nice to get home.  We took the girls to Mistletoe State Park this past weekend.  It was chilly, but it was nice to get fresh air!

 

 

Now we have 7 days until we leave for the beach.  We really cant wait to be with the family, it will be a time of healing, cries, laughs and sand!  Cant wait to share Ryann's first beach memories!!

 

Thank you for everyone's love and support!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pre-Halloween, a 7 month old, a baptism and an Anniversary

Hi blog, sorry we have been neglecting you!
So much to tell you about.

So we are realizing that Ryann is going to be bigger at her holidays than Lucy was, so in order to take the same holiday photos of them, I had to take some Halloween pictures early.

Lucy is on the right and Ryann is on the left!

 

Ryann wouldn't sit nice with her pumpkins, all she wanted to do was eat them!!

 

 

 

 

 

 Ryann moves to much!

 Ryann was to big for the flower, I could only fit the top part on her head!

 

 Lucy's first sweet potato!

 

Ryann is starting to eat baby food now!

 

 sweet potato lipstick, its the new thing!!

 

 flying baby!!!!

 

 

We also had Ryann's baptism!

Ryann's baptism was also the same day as her 7 month birthday!  Cant believe that she is 7 months old!

 



 

We had to head back up to my parents house for the week of Sept 29 - Oct 6th.  My grandpa's (dad's dad) health wasn't the best, he got a very bad infection in his new knee and had to get a spacer knee put in, he was finally released from the hospital this past Monday and will have to be on a serious antibiotic for the the next 6-8 weeks, once they are able to get rid of the infection he will have to go back into the hospital for a new knee again....  so, life has been alittle crazy these past couple weeks.  Nick had a four day weekend this weekend for Columbus day, we are headed back up to my parents house and will get to see my grandpa out of the hospital which will be nice, since the girls weren't able to see him, except for the day before he went into the hospital.  Since they couldn't see him, I made him a collage of pictures from the girls, to help him smile and speed up his recovery!!

 Lucy wasn't being cooperative!

 

So it should be a great weekend.  Nick and I are supposed to go on a lunch date for our anniversary.  Wild Wing Café to watch the Packer game on Sunday, since we wont be home for our Sunday ticket!Which is today, Happy 4th Anniversary!!!
