Ryan Turns 7!

Ryan turns 7 today and I say year after year I have no idea where the time went. He really is an amazing child, mouthy and ungrateful at times but is smart and funny and darn right loveable. He makes me laugh, he makes me cry, he frustrates me sometimes but all in all I don't know what I would do without him. I am grateful that every day he is part of my life. Fred, Ryan & Landon complete me, I am HAPPY! Anyway... Happy Birthday to my first baby- I love you very very much!

Swearing....

So Ryan asked Fred the other day if he could swear but use it in a good way. They had just arrived home from open skate at the ice rink and Ryan had done an awesome job there. Fred was so proud and came home bragging about how well Ry had done. So Fred decides to hear Ryan out on this whole swearing thing.... so Fred says okay buddy what do you want to say. Ryan says, "On Tuesday I am going to skate so fast they aren't even going to see my ass!" So Fred says okay, buddy no more swearing and looks at me and we both just started laughing.....

OH- WINGED FAIRY!

Oh, WINGED FAIRY! Ryan lost his other front tooth on Monday, March 5th. The Tooth Fairy forgot to come Tuesday morning- maybe she went to bed early? But on Wednesday- there was a letter and $2 from the Tooth Fairy!

Landon had a field trip with his class on March 1st. We went to the Strong Museum of Play in Rochester. My mother-in-law Chris (AKA Ree Ree) went on the trip with us since she had never been there. Landon had a blast and I can say that I had a great time too! I love the picture of Ree on the bike! I think I may photo shop a witch hat on her head and a cape... I told her I was going to! It was a great day. I even got to drop and pick up Ryan from school that day!

Grumpy Badger's Christmas

Landon loves the book- Grumpy Badger's Christmas. We got it out of the library before Christmas and then returned it a week later. Landon kept asking for it, so I requested it from the libray because someone else had it out. Well, it took two months for me to receive it and Landon couldn't get enough of it. Ryan read it several times to him and Fred and I did too. I just returned it to the library this week and Landon has asked for it again. I decided to buy it and now amwaiting for Easter to give it to him. I am guessing we will have it out of the library again before then!

Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day was fun! The boys and I had heart shaped red pancakes that Fred made especially for us! They were good! The boys I also made cut out heart shaped cookies and decorated them. They were delicious!
