What a Scare!

Well our week was full of scares. Rylynn got a sinus infection and we had to go to the doctor on Wednesday. But Tuesday night we decided to put the Vicks Vaporizer in her room. We turned it on and shut the door. About 12:20AM we heard the fire alarm going off! I jumped out of bed and picked her up. Ryan realized it was only going off in her room. I ran outside with her to check to see if the whole house was on fire while Ryan tried to get the fire alarm off. We couldn't get it to go off. We realized it was from the steam on the vaporizer...so one lesson learned, never shut the door if there is a working vaporizer in the room.
The on Sunday we were coming home from working at youth group. We had a green light....and all of a sudden then car comes out of know where and runs a red light I started screaming because I knew we would hit and Ryan slammed on the breaks. But I know it would it been bad had he hit us....he was flying and would have hit on my/Rylynn's side. So again...what a scare.

Sunday night I was reflecting on the week as I was rocking Rylynn and I just thanked God over and over for giving us a chance to spend more time with Rylynn and each other. I literally saw my life flash before my eyes on Sunday and I was scared to death on Tuesday. It's crazy how your life changes once you have a child and you realize that if something happens to one or both of the parents what decisions have to be made.
Have a great week. We are hoping for no more scares this week.

The Weekend




Well our weekend was filled with fun! Ryan had 10 softball games in like 48hrs! Rylynn and I watched two of them, and that was good for us. Rylynn is still not feeling well. She has a cough and running nose. We thought the runny nose might be from teething since she is also drooling a ton, but we aren't seeing any teeth, just lots of drool, which you can also see in the following pictures. It was a great weekend, and she is keeping us on our toes. She got to spend the day with grandma and grandpa Sipe on Saturday because Ryan worked and played ball and I had a Tastefully Simple party. Well I am including a couple pictures. One is of Rylynn watching her daddy at the ballpark and the other two are of her drooling like crazy after her cereal. have a great week

This is one of Rylynn's 6 month pictures, she loves to stand up. She will do it when we ask, "Where's mommy's big girl"
She just loves to smile, this is a picture in her newest bonnet at Becca's suprise birthday party.
One of my favorites! She is in the bathroom just looking innocent as can be.

Rylynn is 6 months old!


Rylynn is 6 months old! She is growing so fast. She loves to blow bubble, talk (I wonder where she gets that), laugh, giggle, and be outdoors (she is fasinated with nature) We had her pictures taken on her 6 month birthday, she did a pretty good job. And on the 10th we started her on baby food. She experienced peas first. This Saturday or Sunday she will get to try squash. We have decided to make her food, so I made her peas, and am working on carrots tonight (not sure when we will introduce that) We just want to make sure she gets the best, and we want to save some money for something we would really like to spend it on. I am going to try to include a picture of her eating peas for the first time...we will see how this thing works.


Hi family and friends

I have decided to create this site, because we have several people who don't live around the corner from us. That way you can come to our site at anytime and find out what is going on if you are interested and we don't have to do mass emails all the time. I am going to do my best to update this every week and share how Rylynn is growing and what she is doing, that is the main reason I wanted to do this, I hope all of you enjoy it, let us know what you think!
