Just wanted to post a couple updates....First up: Ryleas first Christmas!

Rylea, loving her new toys and the MILLION books Santa brought!
This little girl is going to have her own library soon! |

Christmas was a lot of fun, we were all very spoiled! Aaron gave me P90X, which was at the top of my list (I'm not as blessed as his family is with the skinny gene, and the baby weight doesn't just 'fall off'...in fact it's clinging on for dear life!) along with a new ring and matching pendant, and what girl doesn't want new clothes? So I got some of those too. Aaron got a lot of clothes because he is SO easy and fun to dress! There were a few more things I wanted to get him but I had already spent too much so they will have to wait for his birthday. :) Rylea loves all the new toys she got and is currently putting them to good use! Rylea also got a little confused and gave both of us the movie Inception, silly little Cheek-in!

| The aftermath! |
Soon after Christmas Rylea learned how to crawl, no more army crawl for this girl! It's so cute to see her cruising around the house doing whatever she wants. Tonight she was in the living room and saw me in the kitchen and started coming towards me so I thought she would be at my feet in a few seconds begging to be picked up, but no, she went right past me, through the kitchen, through the hallway and into her room to pull herself up to her activity table and just play by herself....maybe you had to see it but I thought it was dang cute!

A has been working a crap-load, and making some good money, but we both miss Pop being at home more often. Rylea misses him a lot, she gets SO excited to see him when he comes through the door and he gets just as excited as she does. It's kind of bittersweet though, he's always sad when he gets home after her bedtime and then has to leave soon after she gets up in the morning. We definitely appreciate him working so hard for us, but we miss him at the same time.
Well that's it! Hope everyone is enjoying 2011! ....maybe some of you should update your blogs too...I'm just sayin is all....
Rylea is now walking! She started walking at the beginning of April (10 months old) and now that we're in the 11th month she is walking everywhere! She doesn't crawl AT ALL anymore! It's so cute to watch her walking around the house, and she's so small it makes it even cuter to see. :) I have a video but I don't know where it is on the computer so here's one of her on Easter in her pretty little dress.
