End of March and early April antics

More of the amusing, precious, funny things Rylan and Maylee did at home...

Mei Mei loves to kiss her dolls and pictures of babies... including her reflection in the mirror :)

While I was changing Mei Mei's diaper, RyRy decided to take all the forks out of the drawer and line them up on the counter!

Still loves bath time

Looking handsome on our way to church


Blankets are Ry's favorite "roads" and "parking lots" for his cars

Having fun together inside the play hut


RyRy's National Geographic Little Kid's magazine, yum! Mei Mei would chew on/eat 
paper all day if we let her.

Rylan loves to give Alejandro treats and feed him.

Ten months old today (April 4)! Still incredible to see how much she's grown 
(she's sitting next to one of her preemie onesies).


Tickling her brother!

Thanks for the Easter goodies, Grandmama!

Yum, chocolate eggs!


Ry can fit lots of trucks in his mailbox.

Like father, like daughter

Time to hide the wipes box... Maylee knows how to pull all the wipes out!

RyRy (with daddy's help) brought me some flowers... melted my heart!

We love Maylee's laughs!!

Ry loves running and jumping onto couch cushions!


All dressed up for church... thanks Grandmommy for the cute shoes!

Maylee loves her Daddy!

This book of baby faces is one of Maylee's favorites

Playing and sharing, yay!

With standing came the move from the cosleeper to the crib... 
after a week of adjusting Maylee was right at home.


And here are a few photos of Rylan at 9-10 months...




Scooting, cruising, and crawling

Maylee decided she really wanted to move back in March (9 months), and went from scooting across the floor a bit, to pulling up to her knees, to pulling up to standing, to cruising, to crawling for the first time, on March 30th.  What a month!!  She started crawling at the same age Rylan did.  We're so proud of our sweet girl!

Pulling up to stand for the first time!

Kneeling in the middle of the room... look Mom, no hands!

What a face!

Almost crawling!




Our happy little cruiser



Yay! First day crawling!


Hiking with friends

After a hiatus from posting I'm working on catching up... And there is LOTS of catching up to do!

We went on a great hike with our friends Chris, Shelly, and their little guy Isaac back in April on the Tiger Mountain 3 Trail... we just went part way up but it was a lovely day and we all enjoyed it.  It was our first hike having both Maylee and Rylan in packs.  Rylan rode up in the carrier, but was ready to get out and walk/run on the way down.  We love getting out on hikes!
