The Beach

We returned to Rosemary this year and it was wonderful!  The water was the prettiest I've ever seen it!  A & R were so much fun.  We enjoyed fantastic weather, great food, and lots of time with family.   Alayna was in the pool for hours every day and Ryan enjoyed pool time too although he wasn't a big fan of the sand. 

Branson

We took a family trip to Branson in April. It was nice to get away for a bit and focus on my family and not worry so much about "To Do" lists and such. The resort we stayed was really nice so we spent a lot of time there. Any time we asked Alayna what she wanted to do, "GO SWIMMING!" was the reply so we visited the in door pool daily, or a few times daily. Ryan was super! He pretty much was agreeable to everything we did, as long as we kept him fed.

A & R, 7 Months Later

It's been awhile but I thought I would surprise anyone who may still check this blog with some new pics and updates on the kiddos. A has been the best big sister! I am thrilled with the way she interacts with R and he LOVES her! She is 3 & 1/2 and cracks us up daily. For example, we went to the golf course today for lunch. On the way there, she asked when we would be at the "ball horse." Slight misunderstanding but she didn't seem disappointed. R is 8 months and he is just the sweetest little guy! He is crawling and pulling up on furniture/toys and has 1 tiny little tooth. The entire family is impressed by the amount of food he can put away. Sweet potato fries are his favorite.
