Ryan's 2009 Christmas Program

Ryan had his first Christmas program December 18th. He was pretty excited because he got to hold up baby Jesus. I can't believe my baby is old enough to be in a Christmas program and heading off to Kindergarten next year. Where does the time go?

Nice Winter Day

Here is what happens when dad and Ryan are playing tackle; while watching Teagan in the yard.

Teagan 15 months

Teagan is 15 months already. She weighs 21 pounds 13oz (35%) and is in the 85% for her height. She is running all over the place and starting to talk up a storm. Her favorite word right now is ball. She can say "please, thank you, Ryan, dog", and a few other words. Everyday it seems like she says new word. If she does not get her way she lets you know how she feels about that. Ryan was always so calm and layed back; Teagan is the opposite. She loves her brother so much and wants to play with him and his toys, and Ryan doesn't always want her to play with him. The week of Sept. 20th Ryan went to Phoenix with Nana, Papa, Aunt Theresa, Uncle Lewis, Kennedy and Cole; they had a great time. He said he didn't want to leave Phoenix. While Ryan was gone Teagan went to her first Ava's game. We sat three rows off the ice, she loved it. She danced, clapped and then fell asleep. In a couple of weeks we are going to DisneyWorld, I can't wait and either can the kids. Mom and dad get some well deserved time off of work and time with the kids; and the kids can't wait to play. More pictures to come after our trip.

Ryan 1st Day of Pre-K

Here is finally an update I have been so busy I have not had time to update the blog. Ryan started his first day of Pre-K at the end of August. He goes to St. Louis Catholic School, same school as his mom. Ryan really has fun and is learning a lot. He can write his name and is working on all the letters and numbers.

Teagan's Birthday Party

On Saturday, June 27th Teagan had her birthday party with family and friends. The weather was hot and perfect for the kids to play in the pool, slip n' slide and the water table. Teagan slept through the first part of her party then she had some cake, after Ryan and I showed her what to do and how good cake tastes. What a fun day!

Teagan's First Birthday!

On June 25, 2009 Teagan turned one! I can't believe how the time has gone by so fast. We celebrated that night with Blue Parrot spaghetti and Teagan got to open up birthday presents from us and her grandparents. Ryan was a good helper showing Teagan how to open up her presents. She has her one year check-up next week so I will update at that time.

Summer

This last week my friend Maris and her daughter Alaina came to visit, we had so much fun. Ryan also finishd his first session of swim lessons and passed from pre-pollywog to tadpoles. I can't believe what a swimmer he is all of a sudden. Teagan also celebrated her first birthday this week.

Ryan's First T-Ball Game

Yesterday, Ryan had his first T-Ball practice/game and he had so much fun. Ryan picked number 3 for his number, and played third base. He really got into the game, chasing the ball, hitting and running. We can't wait for next week.

Teagan 11 months

Teagan is almost 1 year old, but here are some pictures of her at 11 months old. She has 7 teeth, is crawling all over the place and walks a little with her walking stroller.
