Ryan's Latest...

This post is a little late! Seems I have been having this problem of poor time management. It feels like I never have enough time to do everything! I know that sounds nuts being that I am able to be a stay at home mom for now, but I am telling you that I DO NOT know where the time goes! I washed my sheets yesterday and forgot they were still in the washer when bedtime rolled around... things like that! Maybe I need to start writing things down. ANYWAY, Ryan had his cardiology appointment for his murmur he was born with. He still has it but his EKG was fine and the murmur is considered a functional heart murmur. He may have it forever but it will not affect him. He also had a check up with his pediatrician. He is 27 lbs 13 ozs and 35 inches tall! He has only gained one pound in the last 2 months which is unusual for him but he is walking.. well running :).... now so he is burning those calories! He is doing so well and getting so big! Back to the whole where is time going thing... I can't believe my baby is 16 months old!

Easter and New Cousin... Baby Kyle







I honestly don't know where the time is goin! I talked to Scott yesterday and even HE asked me when I was going to update our blog! We went up to Bellville for Easter to visit Auntie Jojo, Uncle Jamey, cousins Evan and Kyle, Papa, and Great-grandma Ruby Jo. I was a fantastic time even with all the chaos! Ry didn't feel too great on Easter but he had a good time none the less. He found that he loves basketballs and babies! Two new words he learned and hasn't quit repeating!

Staying Busy on the 3 Month Mark!!



































Third month down! We are missing daddy terribley but have found that keeping busy helps pass the time! Today we went out to the Flour Bluff High School to enjoy the Special Olympics. It warmed my heart so much to see these special people have something so much fun to particiapte in. They were so excited to be able to perform and win awards. All in all it was just one of those moments when you get all mushy inside! Our friend Monte was helping hand out awards so his wife, Stacey, and daughter, Hendrix, went too! We had so much fun and I think the kiddos did too!





Then it was lunch, nap time, and BEACH TIME! The Montejano's, Ryan, and I loaded up and headed to Padre Island National Seashore! We all had a great time and we are planning on going again tomorrow or Monday!!

My How We Have Grown!!














Ryan's friend, Jovani, came over to play not to long ago and since he is still a lil fella, I got out Ryan's old chair for him to sit in. It was still out yesterday and Ryan wanted to play in it so I put him in it and at that moment realized just how big he has really gotten!! Here is a picture from yesterday and one from a year ago! Oh, Ryan wanted me to add a disclaimer. He was pooping in the first picture and didn't want his photograph taken BUT his mean ole momma thought the look he would get on his face while doing such was too funny not to capture! Where has our lil boy gone?!?!?!






We had a nice little treat this morning when we checked our email! We had more pictures from daddy! That is two days in a row! We miss him so, and it makes it that much harder to see what a horrible time he is having! ;)

Live from Kuwait!







Daddy, or Scott as some of you like to call him, finally sent us some pictures from his current deployment. As some of you know he is actually deployed with an Army unit this time which accounts for the different looking uniform. He continues to do well and is so thrilled that they formed a softball league over there so he gets to take part in his favorite activity (besides napping of course)! Some of you have asked if he needs or would like anything sent to him, and well... I asked and he said... wait for it.... wait for it.... COPENHAGEN! Can you believe it?? He swears up and down that the stuff they get overseas is different therefore making it unacceptable.



Ryan and I are doing well also, just passing the time until daddy comes home to us!
