Thank you

So Taylor inspired me to read http://adailyscoop.blogspot.com/ this blog. It is about a women who lost her 14 month old baby in June. It is tragic and amazing. Her words and thoughts are beautiful. She has touched so many lives. She has asked us all to write down the little things your child does and your favorite things they do. After reading her story I have learned to love , admire and appreciate every moment with Kamryn. Her smile takes my breath away and her laughter brings me back to life again. Here are what we call Ryn moments . . .unforgettable:

Her piercing blue eyes and magical smile
How she looks up at me and says, "I love my mommy"
Her perfect golden ringlets
How throws her head back when she laughs . . .and throws a fit!
When she yells "faster" on the 4wheeler with daddy
How she "needs" everything, not wants
Her love for animals
How she holds your face when she give mooches
How concerned she gets when she hears another child crying. She tells me to fix it
How she covers her face with a blanket and tells me that I left Ryn at the splash park
How she pawned her new Princess Bed off on her daddy
When I am sad and she tells me "I hold you"
How she rubs her daddy's back and monas for him
When she tells strangers that she is shy
How she tells me that every kid is her friend
How she lays in our bed and makes us giggle for hours
Her stinky little toes and how she giggles when I smell them
When she holds my face and tells me to "look in her eyes"
How her face lights up when she see's her cousins
How she claps when I go potty
Her excited expression when she hears her daddy's truck

Oh Duck!!





All of the boys are away so Nama, Aunt Jen and I decided to take the kids to feed some ducks at a near by pond. Oh the kids and Aunt Jen had a blast. I have to be honest Aunt Jens was hilarious! When we were growing up we would love to feed ducks so I just figured Jen would remember, well she didn't! When we first got to the pond and she saw all 200 of the ducks she looked at me and said "really?" Then she told me to leave my car running and her door open so that if she needed to run from the ducks she could. I of course laughed at her turned off my car and locked the doors!! After a few moments she realized that the ducks just wanted her bread! The kids all picked out their favorite duck and couldn't feed them fast enough. I am pretty sure we will be doing this again soon so please stay tuned for Oh Duck 2!!

Hanging out with my buddies at the Splash Park!!

OOPS!!



So after dinner on Sunday night at my moms, Ryn wanted to play Peek-A-Boo with Justin. (Justin is her boyfriend, actually Caitlins boyfriend, but Ryn thinks he is always there for her!) Well instead of playing Peek-A-Boo we played OOPS. It ended up being pretty entertaining. As you can see we called it OOPS because that is what we said to Ryn when she couldn't get her head out! After laughing for a good 5 minutes and taking pictures we decided we better get her out. It only took a few minutes and the chair is still in one peace . . . OOPS!!

Ryn decided that it was time for her to have her very own 4 wheeler! Now deciding between the Pink Princess one or the Purple Tinker Bell one was very serious matter. At the store she had to sit, touch and ride each one. She would have been happy to take both, but daddy made her choose. She told him that she need to have two of them so she could share one with him . . . . . it was a very good try! I am glad to say that Tinker Bell won! Ryn was been cruising all over the neighborhood. She has even taught herself a few tricks, like kicking her feet up on the handle bars, kneeling on the seat and even standing up will cruising . . . very talented! When it is time to come in for the night she parks her 4 wheeler right next to daddy's in the garage . . . she said that is so daddy's 4 wheeler isn't scared at night :)
