OK, so it has been a few months since I updated this. Hey...I work full time and have two small kids. Who has time to update blogs??
Anyway, all is well here. The kids are growing like weeds. Ryan is getting to be such a big kid. He talks like his mommy - all the time! Yup, he is mine for sure. If you ask him a question, you better expect a 10 minute answer. He is getting really smart - he seems to absorb information like a sponge (which he gets from his daddy). Sometimes his questions amaze us and we wonder where he comes up with them.
He was a ring bearer in a wedding (Karen and Andrew) in the beginning of June. He did really well. Actually, he joined the band and had a great time. He looked so cute in his tux. He also did well walking down the isle, until he got to the end and thought he would walk back down the other way as the bride was coming down the isle. Oops. Anyway, he danced the entire night and had a blast. At one point the band leader let him get on the microphone and and he said congratulations to Karen and Andrew (and then to mommy, not sure why) and then said "I love you mommy... I love you daddy". That's my baby!
Sienna is growing so fast, we can't believe it. She turned 1 on 6/13. God, the year has flown by! She started walking right before her b-day and has not stopped. She loves to climb on anything she can. Her favorite thing to do is to stand up on her little chair without holding on. Of course, then she falls over flat on her face and cries. 2 minutes later, she is back up on the chair.
She is eating everything! Well, everything except broccoli. Last night I have her steamed wonton and broccoli. She seperated all the broccoli and then started to throw just those peices on the floor. she out eats her brother every meal. A few weeks back at day care, she had a snack at 3:30 in the afternoon. 1/2 a box of mac and cheese. Then she came home and was hungry for dinner. Amazingly, she had her 1 year appt this morning and she is only 1/2 pound more then Ryan was at her age and she is only in the 25% for weight (50% for height).
She is also talking a bit. Basically, momma, dadda (which she says all the time), and hi. She will go back and forth with me saying "hi" for 5 minutes. Apparently, she said "more" yesterday at day care, but I have not heard it yet.
We took our 1st family of 4 vacation Memorial Day. WE went to Myrtle Beach, SC. We stayed at a friend's condo on the beach for a week of sun and fun. The kids had the best time. We took them for walks on the beach every night and Ryan really enjoyed playing in the water and sand. It was Sienna's first time in the sand. I don't think she was 100% sure that she liked it. But, by the last day she was much more comfortable.
Well, that about covers it. Mommy and Daddy are both good. We are both working a lot, but hey...that's what pays the bills. We treasure the time we spend with them.
Here are some pics from the wedding Myrtle Beach and Sienna's 1st b-day.
Love to everyone,
Suzanne, Lloyd, Ryan and Sienna
