Happy Thanksgiving

Since I had to work for Thanksgiving, Dave decided it wouldn't be fun just to sit at home on Thanksgiving so he worked too. My mom and dad took Rylee out to eat with my aunt and grandma. She wanted a "cute" outfit to take her out in so this is what I came up with. It's a new outfit that Dave's mom got her last time we visited (well the leggings are the new part). They had a great time out to eat and Rylee just loved talking to everyone. Maybe she is starting to come out of her shell a little bit with strangers.








Also since it's getting cold...here's how my mom dressed her the other day...

A New Toy

Rylee is now starting to get big enough to play with some of the toys passed down from her cousins. We tried a new one with her the other day. She wasn't too sure about it though.







And just for an update...Rylee's teeth are really starting to come in now. You can see them very well with her smiling.



Dave and I are going to visit Stacy in Columbia tonight and Jessie and Daniel are keeping Rylee. Hopefully she will be good for them and they will take lots of pictures!

Teeth!

Rylee is finally starting to get some teeth! Her bottom 2 are coming in at the same time. I can't say that she's a whole lot fussier or anything with them but I have noticed a little more drool. I started to notice them last weekend and got a few pictures of them today. It's really hard to get a good picture of them since every time I try to get her to open her mouth she sticks her tongue out too. She is also starting to give kisses now....but they are open mouth and she just sticks her tongue on your cheek. She thinks it is the funnies thing though.

Here's the pictures






I tried to crop this one where it would show up bigger and you could see better but it's a little blurry

And Dave is trying out a new hairstyle today.





One last picture....my Granny came over this week to my mom's while she was watching Rylee. Here is a picture of them together.

Playing with her cousins

We finally got around to going and visiting with Tyler and Julie. We used to see them all the time when they lived around the corner from us but now that life has gotten busier with 2 kids for them and since they have moved we haven't seen them in forever. I think the last time I saw them Allie was only a week or 2 old. She is now 4 months old and JP is 1 1/2. JP was so cute and sweet. He kept wanting to give Rylee a kiss. The first time he tried she leaned forward and they bumped heads and she pretty much decided she didn't like him after that. She cried every time he came around after that point. Allie was such a good baby. She didn't even hardly make a peep. I guess the 2 other kids running/crawling around just kept her pretty well entertained. Here are some pictures of everyone.




When Rylee still liked JP


She thought he was alot of fun at first


This is where the kiss and head bump happened


Julie and Allie


Rylee, Allie and me (right after the head bump...hence the tears)


An unsuccessful attempt of getting them to all look....

We had a really fun time with them....we just didn't get to stay long enough since Rylee was tired and fussy. We can't wait to get together with them again sometime soon!

Playing

Rylee has gotten pretty good about playing by herself in the floor now. We have a basket of toys that we put down there with her and she just has a great time. Today she pulled all her toys out of the basket and decided it would be a good place to play at. Here she is

New videos

I finally caught Rylee on camera today babbling. We're pretty sure she is now saying bye bye and da da. But she just says them over and over again.














And in attempts to out-do himself...Dave purposely dressed Rylee up in the most hideous outfit he could find.

Happy Halloween

Since last night was Halloween I couldn't resist dressing Rylee up and taking her trick or treating. I had to work...but got to go home early and we took Rylee to my mom and dad's neighborhood. We took her to a couple of houses to see all the neighbors. Then we came back to our house(getting here was a zoo! everyone was trick or treating in our neigborhood!) and saw a few of our neighbors. I must admit that Rylee was the cutest of all the kids and the cutest cow I've ever seen!

Sorry for picture overload...but I just couldn't narrow it down anymore!
