The latest

Sorry it's been so long! There are only 2 weeks of school left so things have been really busy. Not a whole lot has changed. I'm still growing every day and I can tell the baby is getting more cramped as movements are more painful for me. Rylan has been sleeping really well lately. Some nights he'll never get out of his bed during bedtime, and other times, he'll only get out a few times, but just telling him through the door to get back into bed will usually take care of it now. He's been talking so much more lately, mimicking everything you say, it's so fun to listen to him sound out words and say new things. I will have to get it on video of some of his newest words, because they are so darn cute! He also has been getting frustrated when you don't understand him, which is hard because then all he does is cry and then I just have to start guessing until I get it right, then he'll calm down.
We were quite busy this past weekend, so here's the scoop and a bunch of pictures. Nick's sister's fiance graduated from college this past weekend so his family was in town and we all hung out together. We all went bowling together on Saturday afternoon and had a great time. Rylan hadn't taken a nap and I was worried about keeping him close by and not all over the lanes. At first all he wanted to do was play with the bowling balls, and was getting mad that he couldn't pick them up, but eventually, he just sat on my lap and watched everyone bowl the whole first game. He would watch intently and then cheer no matter what happened. During the second game, Nick took him for his turns and as you can see from the pictures, he LOVED it! He was even quite patient waiting for his turn.



He would just sit there and watch while it rolled down the lane.

No matter if it hit the pins or went into the gutter, he would stand up and clap all the way back.

Drying his hands like the big boys!




I also had a wonderful Mother's Day. We went to Nick's parents for brunch, but I had a nice relaxing morning getting ready as Nick took Rylan and Ace on a bike ride to Grandma and Grandpa's house. We had gorgeous weather so we ate and played outside for a bit and came home around 11:30am for naps. Rylan went right to sleep and so did I. We both took a good 2 hour nap and then Nick and his dad took Rylan golfing so I had a few more hours to myself to relax and do a little shopping. It was so relaxing. Then we all went to Nicks' aunt and uncle's house for an awesome family dinner. I had a wonderful day and couldn't have asked for more! Here are 2 pictures we took before bedtime.

I love Rylan's face on this one. He was saying cheese, but you can tell he was getting sick of it! What a sweetie! Oh yeah, and I look huge because I am! Does this baby make me look fat or what! Haha!
