Sorry it's been so long since I last posted. I haven't had much time to sit down at the computer in the last two weeks. Kris was out of town for 6 days over the last two weeks including the weekend, which made for some really long days for me. By the end, I was exhausted and in need of a break. Not that I ever get it since I'm nursing Emma.
Kris has a great Father's Day here. The saturday before he ran in a 5K race for the library, beating his best time. We went to down to watch him and congratulate him when he was done. Luckily with a 5K he was done in under 30 minutes, so it wasn't too hard to keep Ryan busy! We spent the rest of that morning in Covington, going to the park and out to lunch. On Sunday, he took Ryan swimming at the gym and had a great time.
On the 18th, I had my follow up doctors appointment and was cleared to return to the gym. So we were there the day after Emma turned 8 weeks (they wouldn't take her until then). She slept the whole time!!
We've had many playdates that have kept us busy including swimming and a birthday party with animals. Around here, me have played at home, opened our new swimming pool and played in the sprinkler and with the hose. As you can see, we have a lot of fun all around.
Ryan has been 'playing' with Emma too. He loves to show her toys and today he decided to play doctor with her (in a correct fashion). She is in awe of him most of the time. She loves to watch what he is doing until he gets too rough and then she wants nothing to do with him. Lately, Ryan has had a little trouble listening and understanding that Momma can't do everything when he wants. This creates a lot of whining and tantrums, which gives mom a big headache!
I wish I could remember all the funny things Ryan has been doing lately. I read in a magazine about someone who took their wall calendar and wrote the funny thing from that day that happened on it. I may do it, because I always see him do stuff and think it's hilarious but then forget about it. Of course, I won't forget the hose in the face since I have the pictures of it.
As for Ryan's speech, he has been adding a few words here and there. More has become a favorite word - which is no suprise since it was his favorite sign also. We're working on 'me' this week, which he almost has down. He's also been saying Nana and Buppa (once he called him Bob when looking at pictures) but not consistently. We only have another month of speech then we have to wait until school starts (come on Sept 2nd).
Emma had her two month doctors appointment on Friday. She was at 15lbs and 25 inches long. Not as heavy as Ryan was (17lb, 2oz) but a hefty girl none the less. The doctor said everything looked good. We followed that up with a trip to Baby's R Us (if you know my troubles trying to get the coupon they promised me, I finally got it 9 weeks late!) and to CiCi's pizza for lunch. Kris was off work so it was a nice family day. Too bad Ryan wasn't feeling well and gave it to me! Now we just need to get over these colds!
