Yesterday we were playing out front and they were all being so sweet and cuddly with each other I desperately wanted to capture it. Alas, that didn't happen-but the pictures are cute nonetheless. (This is how Ryan looks in every.single.picture--what does it take to make a 2 year old boy smile--for real--in a picture??? Geesh.)

This morning I hit Old Navy at 7:30 (it was freezing and shopping that early always makes me think it's Black Friday, but whatever). Anyway, from 7-10 am their sweaters were $10 and their clearance was 50% off lowest marked price--score! I had to go so early so I could get to the ball field at 8:30 to volunteer in the concession stand. (Insert rolled eyes that three of us were there for two hours to handle the four customers we had.)Anyway, at least Leigh-Ann and I signed up together (and God bless her, up all night with 3 sick kids and still came!). My mom came up to help Chris with the kids and cheer Anna-Kate on since I couldn't be at the actual game. The kids were so surprised and excited to see her (and more than once commented that they sure missed their Poppy!). We had lunch afterwards, Chris took the boys home and Anna-Kate and I knocked out the majority of my Christmas shopping. Only have Chris and a couple of things for the kids to buy still. :) Yay, I love being done with gifts wrapped in November so I can enjoy December. We spent the rest of the day outside enjoying the weather--chatting with neighbors, playing, grilling and eating outside. Lovely.

Looks like Ryan is saying, "Cheeese" I don't know who started that practice generations ago, but it makes for "Cheesy" smiles. Dad
Ryan is adorable no matter what he is doing !! Pls. tell your grandfather that we are praying for him Ganny (Chris' grandmother) had a knee replacment and she said you have to measure your progress in months...not days or weeks. Tell Chris that we all enjoyed his mimicry of Mai Lee He'll know what I mean. and your ears must have been burning this weekend because everyone was talking abt. how much they enjoyed you blog.
