Hi Everyone, did you have a nice holiday weekend? Mine is going well so far. I am about to get up from my nap, but thought i'd sneak an entry in. mommy is downstairs talking on the phone and I think daddy is in the basement packing.
packing you ask?
packing.
we are moving at the end of june! I haven't see the pics, but apparently the house is bigger, the yard is bigger, and we are going to be much closer to family. no more treks up and down the jersey turnpike!
so, pennsylvania is our destination state. it probably means alot of changes. I think daddy is going to somehow keep his job while mommy is going to look for another. hopefully one where she is not out at night all the time. lucy is going to be without her favorite dog walker, but she is going to spend more time with daddy instead. new rooms for all of us too, lots of packing and unpacking in the coming weeks. hopefully my schedule will stay pretty constant though!
we are going down this coming weekend and daddy adn mommy are going to the home inspection.
so, thats the news here.
had a nice weekend, spent a lot of time with mommy and daddy. today we went into town to watch the duck race and saw some of our neighbors there. yesterday selena and dave came over for a cookout on the new deck with the new grill. it was a blast! today i heard that aunt jen might be stopping by and chances are granpa is going to come over and see me. wow! what a weekend!
hope you all had a good one too! cya

Tues - bam bam
RAAAHHH!
Got your attention eh? my newest trick. scream as loud as i can to get people to react. Works ever time.
Here is the scenario:
Your in a room, everyone is watching your every move. Cracking up at your antics, marveling at your cuteness. Then all of a sudden something happens to shift the focus of the room, say a conversation, or a visitor comes. All of a sudden, you are standing there with no audience.
RRRRAAAAHHHH!!!
Whammo, your audience is back! Works everytime folks.
I don't see a lot of older people doing this. Though daddy does a lot of yelling around the house at me and lucy. the man needs to come down a bit! sorry daddy if you are reading this, but hey, lucy is only 2, i am only 1, someday we will be the perfect angels you want us to be, just not yet! ;)
had a great weekend at the cystic fibrosis walk and the dinner before. got to see most of my aunts and uncles this weekend and cousins too. getting ready for the baby barrage that is coming this summer and fall. my newest cousin riley is still pretty queit and not much into playing, but that will change soon. after the walk mommy and daddy left to look at more houses again. they came home somewhat happy.
things are happening fast around here though, it seems like everyday is a new thing to talk about with all the houses.
miss C is going on vacation tomorrow and won't be in school. its a shame cause she is so nice to me, and always gives me food! fooooood!
ok peeps, talk to you later!

wed - is it hot in here?
ok...so i am sitting here in daycare waiting for mommy to come pick me up. i have a 102 fever so it looks like i can go home early today and hang out with a much missed mommy who has had to work for the last couple nights in a row...
coincidence? you decide.
a mommy a day keeps the doctor away! sorry daddy, your great and all, but you ain't mommy! hee hee
so, what is cuasing this fever you ask? probably those two huge needles the nurse stuck in my legs yesterday! daddy says they were booster shots and it wouldn't be that bad, but i didn't see any needles going into his legs! doc said maybe i get a fever from these shots. i think i got one!
as for the rest of the 15 month checkup, my weight seems to be leveling off, I weighed in at 27 lbs 5.5 oz. Getting closer to average, and my height was pretty average at 31 inches. they measured my head, and i think it was in the 42 cm range, but can't quote that one.
all in all the appt wasn't too bad. me and daddy played ball while we waited for doc to come in, then he let me play with his blue tooth head set and let me wear it. he said i looked cool.
thats it for now, though I am hearing about a moving date of june 28th. not sure yet what this means, but more to come on that.
buh-bye.

Mon - Back to School
Well, did everyone have a good weekend?
I did. It was nice and relaxing. It started off Fri night with a nice quiet evening on Friday, while daddy was working on the grill and mowing the lawn, i spent most of the evening with mommy. then we had a visitor, she looked familiar, but as it turns out, she is the one responsible for selling our house. apparently our first potential buyer has decided not to buy the house. daddy and mommy seem ok with that. then i noticed that no one was paying attention to me, so I spoke up!
sat was an early morning for me and daddy. i just couldn't wait to get up! We played for awhile and then we all went for a walk while some guy came to check out our house. He seemed nice enough, but he was late, and I could sense mommy's impatience. She probably saw that I was getting sleepy and this man was stealing my nap time! But alas, he came, we went out for a walk, and got home. I went for a nap and found out that the man wants to buy our house. Hooray! Then we went to home depot to get some propane for daddy's new grill. That thing is nice lookin.
Sun was the big day. I again decided not to sleep in. Mommy told me that daddy was getting up with me again because it was mother's day and she was goign to sleep in. She also noted that daddy was going to be out late that night, and he would want to get up early to see me! So...we got all of mommy's mother's day cards and presents ready for her so when she came down we could surprise her. I am glad that she was happy to get the gift and cards. Then we gave daddy his birthday cards! It was a nice relaxing day though and we topped it off with ice cream birthday cake, a great steak dinner, and a quick trip to Rita's. I got a taste of all of that and hit the sack!
Now I am relaxed and ready for school this week. Its picture day today, so I think i am going to get my picture taken! gotta look good...
cya!

TGIF - whatever that means
Hi Everyone! Its friday, and the weekend is just about here. Had a rough week, came down with a heavy cough. probably caused by my parent's need to transport me from place to place. lucky its mother's day and daddy's birthday on sunday, so i will forgive them. that should be gift enough...
hopefully it will be fairly relaxing this weekend. this week i noticed a lot of tension in the house. i think mommy wants to buy a house really bad but daddy wants to see if we sell our current house. geesh, what a balancing act. pending offers leads to lots of tension....
not too much else going on. daddy has been trying to teach me more and more words, and he was pretty impressed when I said bye bye the other day. i can also say "door" pretty good, and he has me working on "window". that one is much harder. the other hard one is "light". daddy says i can't say "L" words yet. I guess he is expecting that I will be developing that skill soon.
so, happy mothers' day to all of you mommies out there! most of my readership is motherly figures, so i know you are all looking forward to a great Sunday! hopefully your children won't disappoint. i know my mommy is getting something special, i have been saving up with daddy and lucy. i hope she likes her gift. mommy and dadddy said i had to buy them dinner too, they want to order from Church's chicken that night since it is a special day for both of them. I might be able to swing that with a few extra photo shoots. Lucy has a bit of savings too, so maybe I will hit her up for some. i have been sneaking her food every day since i have been eating, so she defintely owes me!!
ok everyone, have a great weekend!!

Mon - Rest Please
Wow, some rest...please...i am just a small child. Carting me around here and there is very tiring for me (and you, I am sure). Here is a synopsis of my crazy weekend.
Fri yields an early pickup from daddy, and not only that, but Lucy is there with him. He pulls out a cup containing my yogurt drink and says, we are going to see Mom-Mom. But doesn't Mom-Mom live far far away? {yes, she does}
So we hit the road and head down to DE. It was a fun ride, I slept about half the time, but since it was a nice day, daddy turned up the music and opened the windows and sun roof! We had a great time. When we arrived we got to see Aunt Beth and Uncle PJ, and my new cousin Riley. She is pretty quiet and didn't seem very interested in her favorite cousin, but I will give her the benefit of the doubt. She seems to be doing well and is rather content most of the time.
Sat I decided to get up a little early (5:30) to see who else is up at that time. Turns out that when daddy (against his own will) and I went downstairs (after my refusal to lay back down), nobody was there but us and Lucy. Geesh people, wake up, start your day, the sun is shining! By 8:30 we were on the road to Pop Pop and Debbie's. Mommy and Daddy left, and we played for a while then visited Kristen at her soccer game. She was pretty good, she had a couple saves in goal. Got to spend some time with Haley and Anna, also Aunt Jen too.
Then I was whisked back to Mom-Mom's and mommy and daddy gave me lunch. Mom-Mom and Pop-Pop Bill were no where to be found, i think they went to Florida for sun and relaxation. Hoepfully my 5:30 wakeup didn't drive them out of the house. Anyway, had some lunch then me and mommy and daddy headed over to Jake's bday party. I had a great time there, and Jake, sorry for the smack on the head. According to my development phases, I do things now to get a reaction because I am learning about cause and effect. Had some cake adn ice cream then it was back to Mom-Mom's for a nap. Before I knew it we were off to dinner at the Outback with Pop-Pop and Debbie. Uncle Jim and Aunt Tracy got to join us too. Had a great time sipping on my straw from the water glass!
Back to Mom-Mom's and into bed!
Tired yet?
Then, Sunday morning was back to Pop-Pop and Debbie's. They took me to Church, fed me some lunch after and we played outside for awhile. I got to ride around on a little tike bike which was pretty neat. Walking really opens up a lot of doors!!
Finally mommy and daddy got home. they were house hunting and were not sucessful in finding one. sounds like they are changing strategy though and have a new outlook.
So, daddy took me, we picked up lucy and headed back home to NJ. Mommy stayed because she is meeting with some people from her work today to talk with them. She will be home tonight. Daddy adn I stopped at McDonalds for dinner since the traffic was so bad. We finaly got home and it was bath time and then bed time. Wow, finally the long weekend was over.
Today I am still very tired, but recovering. Probably take a few days though. Daddy says that on Sunday is mother's day so get ready. Mommy says that Sunday is daddy's birthday so get ready. I guess maybe I have to get them presents or something. Hopefully some more guidance on these events is coming soon!
Hope you guys all had a great weekend and talk to you soon. It was great seeing almost all of my loyal fanbase!!

Wed - Just A Taste
well, this is a tad embarrassing, but...
yesterday miss pat had to call daddy because i took a small taste of "A" at school. he is my buddy and all, but sometimes we fight too. yesterday he took my crayon, so i had to go get it back. i admit it though, it was a moment of weakness, i lost my self control and took a little bite at him. this is apparently really a bad thing to do, and hey, now I know. daddy made me say i was sorry to "A" and hopefully today he won't get me back! ah the crazy world of school every day. you just don't know what you are going to get there each day...
mommy has a new nickname for me though, "animal". don't know about you, but i kind of like it!

Mon - How was your weekend?
rocks...small oddly shaped objects that are hard and feel good in your mouth. i am learning about rocks, throwing them, hitting things with them, tasting them. the outside just has to much to offer.
i wish daddy would let me spend more time in the garage. the other day i carried the broom all the way to the front of the house. it was great. adults take stuff like that for granted i think. no one seemed nearly impressed with my feat, but man, consider the fact that 2 months ago, i could not even walk. in a few weeks i will be ready to sweep!
daddy and mommy are starting to realize that i do understand things. confirmed by this conversation:
Daddy: Ryan, where is your other sock?
Me: ehh (points to sock)
Mommy: See, he understands what you say to him.
Daddy: Yeah.
Mommy: Ryan, where is Lucy?
Me: eh? (points to Lucy)
Mommy/Daddy: Yeah! Very good!
Daddy: Ryan, where is Mommy?
Me: eh. (points to Lucy)
What I can't convey is that I was only joking on that last part. Don't worry mommy, i know which one you are! i guess i have daddy's kean sense of humor huh? he he.
before i go, happy birthday to the Jake! He turns the big 1 tomorrow. Soon we will romp around together, and can't wait to hang out.
