Puppy Love

The family that we rent from ( The Johnson's) wont let us get a dog. I can understand why, but we still want one! Rylee has always loved dogs and puppies, but just in the past 2 months has she really gotten obsessed with them. Grandma Dina, Grandma Jen, and Great Aunt Judy all have dogs that she has fallen in love with. The Johnson's have a dog too that Rylee loves to hug on.
Their dog happens to be SCARED TO DEATH of lighting and thunder. So, whenever its lighting and they aren't home we gladly take Rugger ( their dog) in! Usually if they aren't home Rugger sits on our doorstep. Last week there was a huge storm, and Rugger showed up at our door. The Johnsons have trained him that when he goes inside their house that he lays on the rug in the front of the sink. He does the same thing at our house too. He comes right in, gets a drink, and lays in front of the sink. Well, you know who loves that.... Miss Rylee Jean!! She thinks its so funny when Rugger comes over. She will sit by him, pet him, play in his water, kiss him, and scream at him. Rugger is so old that he just kind of sits there.

I guess until we can get our own dog, we will help take care of Rugger!

...Jumpin & Fishies...

A couple weeks ago my friend Madi was in town to visit her family. Of course we had to get together and let the girls play. We decided Jumping Jacks would be the best place to go. Rylee had never been, but she loves jumping on Grandma and Grandpas trampoline. It was a hit!! She jumped her little heart, and had a blast going down all the slides... even the big ones! 



Trying to conquer the stairs... maybe next time!

No more pictures!!
 



The only picture of Ry and Kimber that I got.


After our jumping experience we ventured over to Walmart to do a little grocery shopping. Somehow we got sidetracked and bought a gold fish!


What do you do when every employee speaks spanish and has no idea what, " Can you get me a fish" means? Thats right... get it yourself!

She loved the fish so much.


Too bad he only lived 29 hours. Oh well, we aren't fish people I guess!

... A Little Pre Halloween...

So October is here and I LOVE it. I have always loved the fall (besides the year of fall from hell when I was pregnant. I wont let anyone forget how awful that was!) The weather has finally cooled down, the leaves are changing, that crisp air is here, the smell of fires... you get the idea.

I think Halloween might be one of my favorite holidays too. I love to decorate for it, get dressed up, make fall treats, go to the pumpkin patch and Aunt Judys Halloween party, and to top it off Rylee makes it all a 100 times better!

Here are some pictures of our Pre Halloween events!

I decided to take some pictures of Rylee to put in my living room. I love pictures and have to have different ones all the time! Here are a few of my favorites!

Aren't her eyes beautiful?!








Last year Grandma Dina sent us a Halloween package with some fun things in it. Ry was too little last year to understand what they were, but this year she had a blast with them! There were window clings and a coloring book that Rylee played with until they didnt stick and there were no more pages!


Little Miss watching me clean. She just fit in so well with the decor that I had to get a picture of her!

Playing with the pumpkins. We picked a bunch of little pumpkins from Dad and Karens garden a few weeks ago. Rylee has had a blast playing with them. I got them to put on out steps, but Ry thinks they are toys!


Hmmmm... take a nap or make cupcakes? We chose cupcakes!


I had to hold her hands so she wouldnt put them in the bowl while it was mixing. She had fun helping me pour everything in and then watching it mix up!


A few weeks ago we made sugar cookies for the neighbors for Family Night.

Grandma Karen got Ry these super cute leggings!

Some of our decorations.

... NEW THIS WEEK...

I have to write down everything new Rylee does or else I forget, so you dont need to read this, is more just for me to have.

NEW WORDS THIS WEEK

Aube ( Aubrey)

I no know. ( I dont know, she tilts her head and shrugs her shoulder when she says it)

I lala ( I love you)

Papa ( Popi and Grandpa)

Hot

NEW THINGS THIS WEEK

If I say "whats stinks" or "dads stinky" Rylee will plug her nose and laugh.

If something is hot she will scowl and say "hooot"

She says "awwww cute" when she sees babies, clothes, shoes, or herself in the mirror

If I ask if she wants to eat she says yes and runs to her high chair

She LOVES to eat yogurt out of the yogurt container by herself

This one is kind of grose, but when someone toots she turns to them and laughs. If its her she just starts laughing and walks away

When I ask her if she wants to go to Chevron she runs to the front door and waits. She loves to get her sippy cup full of water... sometimes on a good day she gets lemonade.

She likes to hide and wait for you to say call her name. Its fun I guess, excpet for the times when it takes her a minute to laugh and I panic cause I cant find her!

If I ask her to go get her David book she runs in and grabs the David book... she is a smart one.

She can climb into the bathtub now. That scares me!! I have to be rememeber to shut the bathroom all the time!

She loves to pretend she is on the phone and talks talks talks!

If you ask her to say I Love You, she will either say it, or point to her eye then her heart and then say you. Its the cutest dang thing ever!!!

 
Thats all for this week! We sure do love this little girl!!

September

Here are random pictures from September! We had beautiful weather all month long, almost too nice... I was ready for sweater weather!! We were able to play outside alot and go for tons of walks!!



This creepy looking doll was my moms when she was little. I played with it and now Ry has adopted it!

We love to fingerpaint!

Matching Socks

Rylee loves to push her babies everywhere... sometimes just her stroller!
The chair has become Ry's favorite spot. She has learned to climb up in it and out of it too!

Poor Molly

Our nightly reading


Helping with the laundry

My new table Chasey made me!

Sunday Dinners at my moms house.

Ry loves to go visit Grandma at work.

Chasey fell asleep and so Ry took the oppurtunity to play Barbies on his back!

Once again... Poor Molly!

Ry gets on whatever she can and then jumps off.
Folding her arms for prayers. Is it not the cutest thing?!

Making cookies with Grandma

My Little Bug!

We got out all the Halloween stuff,and accidently brought the winter clothes too. I bought Ry all her winter stuff last year for way cheap, so I wanted to see if it all fit her. She looks hillarious!

Conference Sunday we went to my moms house for lunch and then to dads after conference! It was a great day!

Grandma Karen and Rylee

Trying to watch conference and entertain the kids!
