Addy starts School

First Day, she had to being her backpack!

Addy started Preschool 2 mornings a week and is becoming such a big girl!

Addison the Swimmer

On top of being a big sister, Addison has had a busy summer and start of fall. She has been taking swim lessons and is a true fish. In just three months, she can float on her back by herself, turn over, go underwater and collect toys, kick her meet and use her big arms. We are so proud of her and she is a true swimmer after her daddy's heart. Thanks to Mary, her swim instructor for all her time and patience working with Addy to allow her to excel with her swimming skills.

Rylan

Our new little guy, Rylan has brought so much joy to our family. He is an easy going, calm, cuddly little guy who's smile and heart makes your heart melt. I can not describe how wonderful this little guy is and we are so blessed that he is ours. At 3.5 months old he smiles and laughs all day, puts up with his sister, and goes with the flow of our crazy lives. He loves to coo and "talk" and will give an expression where he raises one eyebrow that is the cutest thing ever. Here are some of my favorites from the last 3 months. of Mr. Rylan, our handsome man!

Addy's a Big Sister!

Rylan Connor was born on July 2nd and Addy's world was changed. She is no longer the only center of attention in our world, yet will always be our little character and little girl. Upon meeting Rylan, she was a little unsure of this new little guy, but soon warmed up to him and proceeded to give lots of kisses and wanted to hold him. Little did she know at that moment that he was here to stay. Addy appears to adore her baby brother and on a daily basis wants to hold and help out with him. On the other side, she is also the first to poke, pull his arm or leg and pounce on him. This must be the start of sibling rivery. We keep telling her that just to wait when he gets bigger and gets her back. Here are some shared moments of our two little precious angels together.
