Bad News!

The Cabinet guy came to install my one last cabinet and of course it was the wrong wood and slightly the wrong color...  

(opposition in all things)

Pictures of the house!

{the light isn't very good in any of these photos}

This is our house...  BEFORE...

Notice the lovely stained glass window!

We were worried that we would need a whole new window but

luckily it was just a plastic tint put on to make it look like stained glass.

It was the first thing to come down!!

And After...

Living room

This is the view from the front door.

Under the window by the bookcase is where we are going to put the piano.

{Tylers Grandpa is giving us a baby grand, which I am so excited about.  I'll post pictures when it comes}

Master Bedroom

Master Bathroom

it's not done yet...

Ryans room

If you look close you can see red sox's on the ribbon that the stars hang from

I know I'm weird!

Ryan is obsessed with the baseball fan!  

He loves showing anyone that comes over!

It's my favorite room and I love how it turned out!!

Ryders Room

The curtain is a new addition.

I'll have to take pictures of the kitchen and family room. They should be completely done with the kitchen tomorrow.  We have been waiting on the last cabinet above the fridge.

Oldies but Goodies!

These are Tyler's old pj's.  Of course Ryan loves them because it's  Winnie the Pooh playing baseball.  This morning after his bath he didn't want to get dressed...  so he wore these all morning.  Don't worry though I made him change before we left the house.  

Thank You!!

Thank you to my husband who helped me get both of our 

boys sleeping through the night!!  

I don' t know why Ryan uses  a pillow instead of a blanket??  Funny Boy!  

Deja Vu

Ryder & Ryan 3 months old!

I totally had a deja vu yesterday.  I put Ryder in his bumbo chair, he was sitting on the table wearing the same pj's that Ryan used to wear {all his clothes Ryan used to wear, sorry bud "hand me downs"} ha ha!  Anyway it totally took me back to my sweet little Ryan...

July 17-20, 2009

Tylers parents came down last weekend for Tylers White Coat Ceremony.

We LOVED having them here.

Grandpa O. got Ryan some new balls. He loves them!

He and Grandpa played baseball.

It was pretty cute to watch!

This is what Ryan does,,,

Also Mark helped us with some projects around the house. These cabinets are so beautiful in my garage! I am just so thrilled that they are out of my kitchen!!! And now we have a home for all of our tools!

Thank you Mark and Tyler!

{Also thanks for hanging our bedroom door, and oiling all the others}

{July 20, 2009}

We are so proud of Tyler, he has wanted to go to Dental School for as long as I have known him. All of his hard work has finally paid off! Grandpa Ron and Carol came too. It was nice to have Family there to share in this special event.

Mark and Stacey...

Thank you so much for being here! It meant a lot to us. We sure love you and hope you come visit soon because it was really hard to say goodbye!!!

Rice Cereal!!

I started Ryder on Rice Cereal this week.  He absolutely loves it.  He makes cute sounds the whole time.  I swear he is saying "Mmmm Mmmm".  He also smiles between bites.  It's pretty adorable!!

This was his first time with a spoon...he does better every night.  

Summer?

Even though it's 117 outside I always have to keep a blanket on Ryder because he gets so cold with the ac on.  Ryan seems to think that he needs to do everything that Ryder does.  It's an attention thing!  So here are my boys with blankets in the middle of the summer!!

Three Months!!  

Ryder is the best baby I could have ever asked for.  

He still doesn't cry, he sleeps through the night 

and he loves eating Rice cereal.  

He is a true joy to have in our home!

Ryan and Ryder wear the size diapers... Size 3!!  

I think it's pretty funny... 

but I really just need to get Ryan potty trained.  

I tried to get some cute pictures of the boys together but

Ryan just wanted to play... 

Here he is riding his Hummer over Ryders tummy!

Ryder didn't mind at all.  

Ryan is such a good brother!  

I love watching them interact!!!

Moving and WICKED!!

We moved to Arizona on July 8.  Tylers mom and sisters came with us.  THANKS again for all your help!  We couldn't have done it without you!  The Girls kept the boys for us and Stacey helped us unload all the boxes!! 

{also thanks to all Tylers cousins who helped unload the trailer}

{Chrissy, Me, Stacey, Brooke, Amy, Marlee, Kenzie, and Alli}

 On Saturday July 10 all the girls went to Wicked!  This was my first musical and can I say that I absolutely loved it!!!   I could see this play 100 times!  

Now I know that I LOVE musicals and would love to see all of them!!

Ryan is so tired!

I think it's so cute when kids fall asleep when they are eating.

Ryan didn't get a nap this day.  By dinner he was so TIRED!

More from the 4th

Playing Rook... I love this game so much and this year

Tyler learned how.  He's is pretty good too! 

 Ryan always wants to hold some cards and be involved!

Ryder looking HUGE.  I can't believe he started out so small 

because he is chunkier than Ryan...  I love this BIG guy!!

FIREWORKS with my family and Paul, Holly and kids!

Swimming/Tanning!  Do you like my hat?   After my facial 

I didn't want to get any Sun on my face! 

 Attractive... I know!

I love it when people dress to match the Holiday.

Red white and Blue For the 4th

Red or Pink for Valentines

Green for St. Patricks

Fall colors on Thanksgiving

Red and Green for Christmas....

I know I am totally weird!  

Spa Day July 3, 2009

THANK YOU MOM AND DAD!!

{I wish I had more pictures but this is all we got}

I know I am way behind on Blogging but I will try and get caught up.  We just got the internet hooked up today in our house so here we go...    

We had a little get together with all my brothers and sisters over the 4th of July Weekend.   My Mom took us girls to the spa for a day...  It was FABULOUS!!  We all got pedicures, manicures, massages, tanning, facials, and our hair done.  It was so so so much fun.  Thanks again to Brooke for keeping my kids for the day!   I wish that I wouldn't have had an allergic reaction to the facial... but other than that it was perfect!

4th of July

4th of July... I have lots more picture but they will have to wait until Monday when we have the internet at our new house.  We are in Arizona now our house is SLOWLY coming together.  I'll post pictures as soon as I can.  I will have lots more time when Tyler starts school next Monday.
