Growing up

WOW!! Time has gotten away from me. Life has changed and grown and I wouldn't trade a minute of it!

Landon is now 15 months old. He's very outgoing. He insits on playing outside until it's dark. He loves his sitter, Kym. Especially when he goes over there and gets to see Madison, his friend who is a couple of months older than him. His sister, Rylee, is still his favorite person. When she is there, he is attached at the hip to her. It brings a smile to mine and Ryan's eyes to see our kiddos grow. But as I looked over this blog, and all the pictures of Landon and Rylee, tears came to my eyes. He has changed so much, and yet I still see my sweet newborn in his eyes. He is such a beautiful little person. He learns new things all the time. He smiles so sweetly. He laughs in his sleep. He hugs my neck at night. He smiles when he sees me in the morning. He runs when he sees me in the evening! He cackles when he chases the cats, as they run for their lives! He's shy when he meets new people. He grins when he gives a high five, or when he "riverdances". He laughs when he knows he's being funny, or mean. ;) He's the best thing that has ever happened to me. I love every minute of being that child's mom. That is what I was put on this earth to do. I just am so very blessed.

As this school year is coming to a close, Rylee is preparing for the CRCT tests this week. She is very nervous and anxious, but we all know she will do wonderful. She is the smartest girl I know. :) She is a little business woman. She has set up her own website for dog sitting. Not bad for a 9 year old girl. It's amazing to watch her grow into a young lady. She is just as girlie as can be, but will get down and play with the lizards and bugs too. Very well rounded.

Ryan and I are doing great. We are getting ready to celebrate our 6 year wedding anniversary in a couple of weeks. He's the love of my life. I am so happy! I love to watch him with our children. I love to hear "dadda" come out of Landon's mouth. I love that he is a daddy's boy. I love the man that he is, and the inspiration that he is to our children. He has so much love to give them, and so much to teach them. They are very lucky to have such a wonderful dad. And I am so grateful.

As you can tell, I love my family and have never been so happy. <3
