Birthday Party

Luckily Grandma Kathi had the camera out for the party, because Matt and I were busy hosting and did not take nearly enough pictures. Rylee was extremely blessed to have so many people she loved come to her party and bring her such nice presents. Matt described our house after the party by saying, "It looks like Toys R Us threw up in our house!" But, Rylee loves all her presents and has had so much fun with everyone that came to visit! - k

Pool Time

Aunt Erica, Uncle Jeremy and Cousin Megan got Rylee a pool and some toys for her birthday and she loves it. We played out there for almost an hour the other day and she just slapped the water and played the entire time. - k

Golf

Rylee had a great time golfing with us yesterday. She practiced putting for the first time and went 5 for 5 on her putts, but her favorite thing was being outside and in the golf cart. -k

Birthday Cake

Rylee had a FUN birthday party the other day. She was not quite so sure about eating the cake, but with some encouragement from other people she dug right in. She dumped the cake upside down and then had a great time playing in it. Rylee would take a bite and then a take another handful and offer it to other people. She was a bit of a mess, but it was lots of fun! - k

Las Vegas

Rylee and I headed to Las Vegas for another soccer tournament, and we brought Aunt Erica and Megan in to baby-sit and play! The trip did not go as we planned, but we had a great time with each other. These are the pictures on my camera; Erica has different pictures on her camera. We did lots of fun things, but it ended on a sad note with all of us coming down with a stomach bug. Hope you enjoy!! - k

Open and Close

This might not be the most exciting post for everyone, but it was fun for us. Daddy had Rylee standing on the counter and she started pulling on the microwave. The two of them opened and closed the microwave together for a long time and had a great time together. - k

Has Anyone Seen Rylee?

Crawling Soon

It won't be long now, watch out Aunt Erica we might be moving in Las Vegas.

Roller

Any wonder as to why she sees no point in crawling?

Attempts at Walking

We are trying our best to help Rylee learn how to walk, and tonight she finally took steps. Normally when we try to help her walk it is us walking and dragging Rylee with us, but tonight she took little steps! We were pretty excited. - k

Bike Shopping

Mommy and Daddy have decided to take up biking, but first we need bikes! We haved dragged Rylee from Sandy to Park City looking for bikes and she has been so good. These pictures are at the outlets in Park City where we took a little break to let her play. - k

mmm...These Taste Good

Who Needs to Crawl?

Rylee is into everything and she cannot even crawl yet. My feeling is she doesn't see any need to because she is such a good roller she can get into everything and anything. Today she started at our couch with a pile of toys and then she was playing with Daddy's X-Box and getting into the TV stand. A minute later she was next to me pulling the computer off of my lap, she is a fast little bugger! Oh and who can forget that mischievous smile she gave me when I asked her what she was doing, man am I in for it once she can "really" move! -k

Walk With Mommy

It was a beautiful day and we couldn't stand to be kept inside any longer, so the two of us headed out for a walk and a swing at the park! Rylee likes to look at me the entire time we are walking, so she peaks through the little window on the shade of the stroller. She also loves to "hang out" while she is in the stroller. She lounges all the way back and rides with one of her feet hanging out the side! We had a great time at the swings and on our walk, we are trying to soak in the sun until it rains on Wednesday! -k
