Rylan's First Camping Trip

We decided to take Ry camping as we both have great memories of camping as kids and knew he would love it!  We were exactly right, he LOVED it!!! He keeps asking when we are going to go back and when can we stay at the campground again!  We hiked, drank warm apple cider as it was CHILLY at night, snuggled in the camper and read books, went to a local pumpkin patch and spent lots of time watching Ry VROOM! his cars/trucks around in the dirt!  He sure is a BOY!!!!

Fall Break

We did many fun things over fall break, trips to the park, the Science Museum, painted pumpkins, and the zoo!  It was a great week together!!!

Disequilibrium. . .

I am writing this so Rylan doesn't forget what he put Eric and I through when he was 2.5 :)  Let's just say that Rylan the Ferocious returned about 2.5 weeks ago and stayed for exactly two weeks.  It was an interesting two weeks, he was quite demanding, and not the sweet boy I am used to.
During this two weeks he managed to bite me (hard), pee on his bed, pillow, and carpet until Eric and I finally decided to package tape his diapers on..... seriously?!  Now we just put his pj's on backwards and have cut the feet off of them so he can't unzip them - just got tired of cleaning up pee and thankfully it was only pee!!!  Ry is usually a pretty good listener and would not listen to anything, in fact he would basically do the opposite of what we asked him.  STINKER!!!!!

Luckily this was only a phase and I can chuckle as I write about it now as it is over (but will certainly return again!!!) Just had to document it for his reading one day! HA!!!

We love you buddy, to the moon and back (even if you are going through a phase!!!!!)
