Ok, so It may take me a while to post new pictures, but I figure I might as well at least keep up the writing before too much time passes..... let's see how much I can remember since I currently have what they call "mom brain" and can't seem to remember anything lately!
I guess I last left off at the end of July and beginning of August. My friend Sheri came to visit us from North Carolina and she stayed with us for a few days. We took Rylee to the ice skating rink where Rylee and Daddy watched Sheri and I as we reminisced of our younger years and went ice skating. (I promise to add pictures when the time allows) She did so good there with Daddy and she enjoyed watching us skate. We also stayed at Uncle Mike and Aunt Joanne's house, whom by the way, we asked to be Rylee's Godparents :) and they happily accepted.
On August 9th, Rylee had her 2 month check up with Dr. Yarcking and she has grown almost 3 inches since she was born and 4 pounds!!! She now weighs 12pounds 12ounces and is 23 1/2 inches long. Our baby girl is really growing up fast!! She got her vaccinations and she was a big girl and only cried for a minute, however it did break momma's heart to see her in pain. She handled it very well!
Mommy returned to work on August 13th. It was a very sad first day. Mommy cried the whole way to work and missed her terribly but we are sooooo THANKFUL to have the best person caring for Rylee. She goes to stay with Mrs Sara during the day. Sara has a 3 yr old son named Logan and a 2 year old daughter named Caitlyn who are Rylee's new Best Friends!!! Rylee has so much fun staying with them. She gets to read stories, sings, dances, goes to the library, plays outside, plays peek-a-boo, tummy time, and gets a lot of love and kisses from everyone. Rylee even told Logan she loves him :) 'wink'. Logan and Caity love to help their momma watch Rylee and look forward to her arrival every morning. We know Sara and her husband from highschool. It's wonderful knowing that Rylee is in good hands! Sara keeps a daily log/journal for us and she tells us everything Rylee did for the day and we look forward to reading it every day when we get home, it really makes us feel like we were there the whole time!
We have been taking Rylee swimming a LOT lately!!! She loves it soo much and Grandma and Grandpa Reedyk's pool is the perfect temperature right now!!
Rylee is also soooo very close to giggling, we are anticipating that very much!! She smiles sooo much now and really responds to a friendly voice. She also follows objects with her eyes now and it is so fun to watch her do that. Morning times before work is mommy's favorite time, that is usually when Rylee is the happiest. She is ALL smiles in the morning and she talks a lot!!!! It makes it hard to leave to work when she is being so cute!
Rylee is also wearing 3 month clothes now and we have officially retired all of her newborn clothes :( it's so sad to see an outfit that was once so big on her little body not even fit her anymore!!! Why do they have to grow up so fast? It's a lot of fun though to go in her closet and get to pick through all the new clothes in the next size!!! Mommy is having fun dressing Rylee up in dresses and hats and headbands!
well..... to be continued next time :) and I hope to add pictures soon!!
