Sorry everyone for the long absence. I wish that I could say that we have been traveling around the world so I haven't had time to update our blog, but the truth is that we don't have the internet at our house so I decided blogging would have to be postponed for a while.
Life is good though. Ryan is still dedicated on working on the house, which looks great and hopefully will be finished in the next month or so (cross my fingers). Rylin is getting so big. She loves to take your fingers and walk around for hours. Yesterday she began saying Ba Ba Ba and I think Dad Dad too, which to the average Joe wouldn't mean squat since she is a baby, but to us means the world because we are use to only aaah's. Oh the joys of being first time parents. Also right now we are in the WONDERFUL stage of letting Rylin cry for endless hours in the night to try and break her habits of waking up for feedings. The doc says it usually only last for a few days...with our luck it will be a few weeks. She is worth every bit of it though.
Let's see...latest for me is that I am faithfully watching The Bachelor and Lost every week. Ryan is in on Lost with me but he thinks that The Bachelor is the biggest waste of time on the face of the earth. I honestly think that he makes up things that he demands that I do just so that I won't be able to watch it. Little does he know that my mom has DVR and I can watch it whenever I want. Um can I say that Naomi's family was PSYCHO! Thank goodness that he got rid of her. Anyone that puts on a funeral for a dead bird needs psychic treatment. On the other hand if Jason kicks off Melissa then he is an idiot and I won't watch the finale. On to Lost...I don't know if I am liking this constant time travel bit. I feel cheated at the end of the hour that I only got 15 minutes worth of important info. I hope it picks up soon. I have also been watching Studio 5 which give me creative ideas on projects that I want to start. I have officially made myself a family planner and now I am going to start crocheting headbands. Unfortunatley I never finish my projects as soon as I would like because Rylin is a huge momma's girl and likes to be held and to tell the truth she has me wrapped around her finger. I also want to make Rylin a quiet book, some headbands, and start sewing dresses.
So the topic of the week is Valentines Day. I'm sure you are all wondering what Ryan and I did, so I will inform you. Valentines Day is my sister-in-law Heidi's B-day...Happy Birthday Heidi! So she decided that it would be the perfect day for all the adults in the fam to go skiing together. Ryan's wonderful aunt and uncle took on the saintly duty of babysitting and off we went. What a day! From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. we were non stop shredding it through knee to waist deep powder. It was like we were floating down the mountain. It was awesome. Today on the other hand wasn't so awsome. I have muscles that I never even knew existed that are so tight and sore it feels like I was hit by a semi and lived through it. Worth it though. Next year we are going to do something a little more romantic though because Ryan needs to reconnect with his inner feelings.
Well I am now going to cuddle up next to Ryan and watch Dejavu and enjoy every minute of it until he realizes that tomorrow is Monday and he has to go back to work. Here are pictures of the last 3 months that you all missed out on.
