Merry Christmas 2012

Well this is Ryleigh's second Christmas, but the first one that she could actually participate in. She really enjoyed opening every one's gifts including her own.

Ryleigh was so excited for Christmas she woke up at 6am! I am sleepy just thinking about it! While opening up her gifts she had such a look concentration and determination. No smiles...just a serious look on her face the whole time. I know she loved her gifts because she had to stop and play with each and every one of them. It made for a very long, but entertaining morning.

It was so wonderful having David's parents in town to celebrate Christmas with us!

Samson helped Ryleigh open her presents

Just like that...she is 17 months old!

I have reached full capacity and made my way to the end of the blogger world. I can no longer upload picture to my blog without paying for more storage so sadly I will be deleting many of my postings so that I can continue to post all of Ryleigh's silly faces and fun moments . The good news is I found a website that will transform my blog into a book so at least I will have a copy in some form.


Things Ryleigh is doing now:
~ Loves her babies or Buh-Be as she calls them and kind of with an accent. Other new words she is saying or trying to say include Jacket (jick-jack), book (boo), and tree (tra)
~FINALLY-no more bottles and now that she does not get a bottle she does not need her baby rocker anymore. So we are able to pack up yet another piece of baby gear.
~ Favorite food is still cereal bar or yogurt
~Enjoys dancing





Just hanging out with her toys

 

Hmmm...wonder where she learned to do this?

 

She has started liking bows and hats now. She insists on wearing a bow after bath time.
