New things

Rylan has been busy this week with many new things. He had his first night staying with Adam's parents while we went to the coast. He also is learning to suck his thumb. He mostly sucks on his whole hand.

We also borrowed a mega swing from some friends. We kept insisting that he doesn't like swings, since he cried every time we put him in his little swing we have. However, the moment we put him in the "daddy of all swings" he immediately stopped crying and got happy. I guess what he was trying to say was "I don't like cheap swings mom and dad! Get me the big one!"

He has also started to stick out his bottom lip and whimper. If something upsets him he will do this but in the next second might be smiling again. Oh the drama!

Happy Baby

Despite some serious congestion, Rylan has been pretty happy this week. Couldn't pass up the opportunity to record some serious smiles :)

Adam's Haircut

Our clippers have been busy this week! Adam challenged the church to get 100 people to particpate in the annual Crop Walk and to raise $5000. He promised to shave his head if UUMC reached one of these goals. Fortunately I have a lot of clipping experience!

Annie's haircut

It has been hot here lately. Not just warm, we're talking 90 degrees hot. Poor little Annie has been wearing a winter coat so I finally decided to shave her thinking winter was over. Here are picts of the progression. Sadly it froze today and the little girl was shivering. Next year I will wait a few more weeks before shaving her!

Brandon's Visit

Brandon came to SA two weeks ago to meet the little guy. We were happy to introduce him to life with Rylan...feed, change diaper, cry, nap, cry, feed, cry...I think Bran wants to wait a while before having kids!
