The Smith Boys

Now aren't they good lookin.......
Just wanted to make a shout out to my sweet husband, my awesome father- in- law, and my cute brother-in-laws....Thanks for being so great!!!

Ry and her cooking adventures!!

We went to my mom's this weekend because Shane had Drill for the Army in Salt Lake!! We had a lot of fun hanging out and relaxing!! Rylee especially loves my mom's cat, his name is mouse(ironic I know)... We listened to my brother's(Chad) baseball game via the internet on Saturday and they won!! He is playing baseball for Cerro Coso, its a school out in California!! We also did some cooking as you can see and Rylee wanted to help do everything, I'm surprised she wasn't more of a mess...But she wanted to dump everything in the bowls and stir it up and of course taste it, just to make sure it was good. She had a ball, we might have a mini Chef on our hands.....haha
When we went to leave on Sunday night Rylee cried and cried because she didn't want to leave....it was a relief in a sense for me because Shane and I are leaving for a week in May to go to Washington D.C. and we aren't taking Ry bug....so now when I leave her for that long of a time, its good to know that she loves being at Grandma's House!!!

Fun with Ry Bug

We Jinxed Ourselves

Saturday started out fun, my mom came up from Salt Lake to spend the day with us and just hang out. We went to the mall for a little while because Rylee likes to play on this ice-cream playground thing that they have. Well all was fine and dandy until it was time to leave and Miss Rylee didn't quite agree. We were walking out of the mall and I had a hold of Rylee's hands and she was walking in front of me, throwing a famously known Rylee tantrum....when she does this her whole body goes limp and falls to the floor, yaddy yaddy yah...well this time I had a hold of her hands when she did it. The minute she did her little thing she started to cry. I picked her up and walked her to the car, thinking nothing of it, just that she was mad at us for leaving. When we got back to my house, Ry was rubbing her eyes with just one of her hands and kind of favoring the other arm but not long after that she was asleep, I was worried but I never felt a pop or anything so we were just going to wait for her to wake up. However, when she did wake up she couldn't move her arm, ahhhhhh..... I broke her arm I thought, we wrapped her up in a blanket and took her to the InstaCare. I called Shane to tell him we were taking her there and so he left work to meet us. We asked Rylee where her ouchie was and she'd point to her arm, because usually she points to her fingers where she burned them.....(Man trauma month for the Smith Family) Anyways we finally got to see the doctor and she felt Rylee's arm and said that her radial bone had popped out of its socket. Ouch!! She said it was a common thing with these little ones and took Rylee's arm and bent it all funny and stretched it (While Rylee was screaming of course) and put it back in. The second she did Rylee jumped down and went to the door and was ready to get out of that place, the good thing was she reached for the door with her hurt arm, and the doctor said "K she's ready to go"......... I mean seriously what a month!! She falls at my neighbor's and cracks her head open, grabs my flat iron and burns her hand really bad, and then I go and help to dislocate her elbow....There are only three days left in January and I'm praying that we don't end up back at the doctor before the month is over....goodness!!

Rylee Adventures

Well the beginning of the new year has been an eventful one so far....Rylee is getting into everything including falling into window ledges and splitting her forehead open! The doc said she could use some stitches but we couldn't get her to hold still long enough so they resulted to just gluing it back together. Random.

She also decided to try and straighten her hair with my hair straightener but that resulted in a pretty good burned hand. The blisters came within minutes along with screams for a long couple of hours. I hate being helpless when something like this happens because there isn't a whole lot you can do other than try and comfort them. Shane put some burn cream on her hand and we tried to wrap it but that didn't last :( We called the doc just to make sure there wasn't something else we should do and they just said to do
what we had already done. Ry fell asleep finally for
about three hours and when she woke up it
was like she forgot that it happened, thank goodness.

We had one final doctor visit for the month and hopefully its the last one. It was Ry's 18 month check up! She rang in at a skinny minny 23lbs but flew off the charts with a height of 34 1/2 inches!! I can't get her to eat anything but I guess the tall gene thing is working. Random.

So at night when all is quiet and Shaner and Ry are fast asleep in bed, I like to sit down and have some quiet time for myself..... And this is what has become of that quiet time lately!!! PHOTOSHOP, ahhh I'm addicted and I have been having so much fun trying to create something fun! I really don't know what I'm doing, Shane checked out this Photoshop basic book for me and well I've just kinda pushed some random buttons.... I still want to know how to do so much stuff but so far these little card creations is all I can come up with!!! Now who said I couldn't be crafty? ( hahah)
