First snow of the season
Hello everybody. I just thought I would post these few pictures I took. Check out what I woke up to this morning. Yip, the 1st snow of the season. It's still fall but yet.. it's Pennsylvania weather for you. It wasn't much snow but it did snow all day and the ground was wet but if the ground was frozen it would have stuck to the road and caused some freezing and slipping and all them kind of problems associated with snow and vehicles. HEHE!! Tuesday of this week we had our 1st flurries of the season.. a few big flakes here and there. Not today... HEHE!! Oh well. Gotta love it. NOT!! I like snow but.. I like it on Christmas Eve and Christmas day and well that's it. Ok maybe I liked it more when I was younger and we had snow days and get out of school but well I don't get those anymore. I am sure my views will change once Rylie is older and on school while I am at work begging to have a day with her to myself. Anyway.. I got off track there for a second excuse me.. Enjoy the pictures
More videos
Thought I would try and post a couple more videos taken. It was a slow day so we didn't have much to do. Plus I wanted to try and capture my lil Cheeks on video. We don't have enough of them.

Video from OBX trip
Hello all, I thought I would try yet again to get the video posted on here. I sure hope it works. This is probably the 4th or 5th day at the beach. Anyway she really enjoyed her time at the beach. I am sure there will be more years to come where we head to the beach. Whether at OBX, Seattle.. whereever the ARMY sends us, I am sure we'll always find our way back to the beach. I love the beach, John loves the beach, Rylie loves the beach... HMM maybe we should live at or by the beach. HEHE!! Anyway hope the video works. It does have sound so make sure your speakers are turned on. Please send comments letting me know.

Another month gone
Well here it is November 1st. I can hardly believe it. Another month gone which brings us closer to John coming home, leaving Pennsylvania, closer to seeing Justin and Sarah in the summer and many many more awesome things. October has flown by as a lot of other months did for me. Since I havent been worrking, the days just run into each other and I find it hard keeping track of what day it is. Whether that is a good thing or bad thing I am not sure. October seemed a big month for us as Rylie has said her 1st sentences. Yes she did it finally. My little girl is growing up. One night while in the room with mom and dad she said "Pappy geyou, geyou Pappy." Which in translation Pappy close the door apparently. HEHE!!! I dunno. Spelling of course is always an ifie, I try to spell how she says but anyway geyou sounds like get out to us but apparently it isn't. She also said "pee poyie" which one can only know what that is (for those who can't think- pee potty). She knows her color yellow and purple.. all other colors are yellow. When asked how old she is she will tell you 2 and try to do the fingers (to no avail). Somethings she says we wonder how she can say that and not others... i.e. "nanie" is for Amanda and banana. Well if she can say nanie then why can't she say Anni (for our dog).. Anni is of course "hedie" (again the spelling). Yea we don't know why. Since Rylie was 8 months old she has had nothing to drink but water and milk.. no formula or bottle I mean. Well she has yet to say milk. HMM... I don't know. Naps (my worst fear) are dwindling down. Although she went from taking naps at noon to 1530 (330 for civilians) to taking them at 1300 (1 pm) to 330.That is ok. Still its good time. Well now a days we're lucky if she is sleeping by 1400 (2 pm). Well mean ol' mommy over here says oh no we don't do that, mommy needs rest time. So although she isn't sleeping she is still in her crib during what we have now called "quiet time". She is still content with it although she is louder than before. Oh well as long as I have an hour to get some things done or even to relax. Umm... oh yea.. another thing.. yea we had another Emergency room visit just a week ago. While visiting my nan (she isn't doing very well and had to go back to Pittsburgh) my cousin Amanda had her at her house. Well Rylie apparently was visitin Mike in their garage. Shera (their dog and I have no clue on the spelling of her name) apparently jumped up on her. We don't know what happened next. When getting ready to leave my nan's we saw the cut on the cheek. But we didn't see the marks above the cut. Oh well I said it happens. Well the cut was bleeding pretty bad so we cleaned it out 2 times and put ointment on it 2 times. The next morning she awoke with a huge swollen , red and purple cheek and had a 100.1 temp. So off to the ER for us. Now after having some antibiotics in her, it looks good. Still a cut and still a little hard under and around the cut. But it looks good. Sorry I won't post any pictures of it.. Well, I think that is about all that has happened in the month of October. Can't wait to get started with this month and get it finished (except for the eating part-mmm holiday food).
HAPPY HALLOWEEN (yesterday)
Well I hope everybody had a Happy Halloween. It wasn't so bad for us. We were only gone about an hour but in an hours time we had an Elmo bucket full of candy and a juice. I think she had fun, was kind of confused as to why people had large bowls and buckets full of candy and then only giving her a couple pieces. We only had 2 kinda scarey moments for her. The first time was when we stopped at uncle Chris' house.. actually he isn't her uncle he is cousin Chris on my brother-in-laws side. HEHE!! But anyway, he goes all out on Halloween every year. And well it was ok until she saw him. He was all decked out in a Dracula costume and paint and eyes and everything. HMM.. enough to scare anyone. But she cried and said "bye bye" so we got the candy and left. Then a little bit further down the street we saw a little boy ( I think it was Patrick- my niece and nephew's cousin) wearing a Freddy Krueger mask and hand. She didn't like that either. Other than that she did fine. At home we searched through the candy like good mommies do and gave her a couple pieces to eat. Then it was time to get ready for bed. Cha right after eating candy? HEHE!! No she did good. Pictures follow of course.
Pumpkin Carving
On the 30th of October, Rylie and I decided to do a little pumpkin carving. Well It wasn't so easy for me so I enlisted some help from Pappy. HEHE! After I made the little face on the pumpkin with the sharpie, We proceeded to carve it. Hmm... what fun. It was just a little pumpkin so Rylie wasn't able to take the guts out by hand, she used a spoon. I think she enjoyed it although.. can you believe she didn't get any of it on her except when she picked up the seeds. HEHE!! I was going to dry the seeds out and have her try them but I decided not to. Anyway Pappy came outside to help us out some more. Later on we were able to put a tealight candle inside. WOW!! Her eyes were big. It was funny. She kept trying to play with it but we told her once its lite we don't touch it's hot. So that wasn't fun it brought on a fit. Anyway.. that was that. Enjoy the pics.
