Dood Job!

Not much goin' on 'round here. I just thought that I would do a little updating. Rylee is growing and changing so fast, I thought I better get some more pictures on here. Jim likes to accuse me of treating her like a doll, but what good is having all the cute clothes if she doesn't wear them. And she has to have a bow! She has these cheeks that just I just want to eat up every time
I give her a kiss. They are pretty hard to resist.
She is starting to suck on her knuckles which I think is very cute. I wonder if she will be a thumb sucker like her brother.
These next few pictures are a collection of Tanner. Every time I take a picture of Rylee, Tanner needs a picture taken as well. That's all fine and dandy except that he always stands really close to me and every time I move back, he moves forward. So I take the picture and this is what we get. Notice his thumb is always in or very near his mouth.

Who doesn't like a bath? She loves them!

Tanner is always looking for new places to crash. At least Rylee wasn't in there that time.

So Tanner is always saying things that crack us all up and I would like to share a couple of them. Yesterday my parents were over. Tanner had just woken up from a nap and my dad was giving him a hard time. Well, I guess he wasn't in the mood for that because he gave Papa KJ a stern look and said "I daddy's Tanner!"

Lately Tanner has been telling everyone "Dood job!" every time we do something right. For example he will ask me what an animal is called and when I tell him he says "That's right, dood job!" Well, my dad was giving the opening prayer in sacrament meeting and Tanner was being good and folding his arms. (Something that we are working on!) When my dad finished the prayer Tanner said, in a loud, proud voice, "AMEN! Dood job Papa!" It was so funny! Everyone around us were giggling for the next couple minutes. Oh, I love that
kid! I never have a boring day.

Tanner & Granny Gay

Tanner's Granny Gay is so nice to let him "help" her ice the cookies for Rylee's blessing. Not much of his icing ended up on the cookies, but that's a good thing because it was most likely in his mouth at some point during the activity. (For all those who ate the cookies, I'm sure you got the ones without Tanner saliva!)

When he started to flinging icing all over the kitchen, we decided he was done. Granny had almost as much on her as Tanner did. He didn't see a problem with that!


And directly into the bath he went. But he sure had fun with Granny Gay!

Rylee's Blessing

Rylee got blessed yesterday. She looked so beutiful for her special day.

I had to take a picture of her shoes!

Jimmy did such a good job with the blessing. We sure feel blessed to have this little girl in our family. We had alot of family come to support us and it was fun to have them here. Thanks to all who made the trip.
