7 months old and so much to be thankful for!

It's crazy to think that Ry is now 7 months old! This time last year I was buying my first pair of stretchy pants! She has been up to so much lately. She loves to sit up and play, laying down is for babies and she no longer likes it! She's eating all kinds of baby foods, squash is her favorite and peas will nearly make her throw up, she knows what she likes and what she doesn't. Her new best buds are Hondo and Tobi, she just chatters and swings her arms around when she sees them. She just can't get enough of her puppy and kitty. We're sad that the weather is turning colder because we'll miss our afternoon walks. She LOVES to be outside!



We had an exciting holiday weekend. We spent our time with family and lots of Aggie friends. Rylynn is really starting to enjoy playing with her cousins as well. Right now there is just a lot of grabbing and talking, but it won't be long till she's chasing after them all.
We spent Thursday and Friday in College Station with the Martinka's and the Riojas' eating lots of turkey and watching our Aggies.

Rylynn enjoyed the tailgating, but it wore her out!


Friday we went and took a few pictures around campus, she was in such a good mood! I think I will do all of her pictures outside from now on.

Saturday was Rylynn's big day! Although she was baptized when she was only minutes old, Saturday we were able to have a baptismal ceremony for her with our families. It was such a nice feeling to formally present her to God. She was great through the whole ceremony and was mostly just interested in taking the Priest's paper out of his hand the whole time. Here are a couple of pics from the day.

Rylynn with her two Godmothers. I know they will be a great inspiration for her Christian faith.

This weekend Gilly and I are looking forward to celebrating our 5 wedding anniversary! It will be so much more special because this year we will get to celebrate as a family. We also can't wait to get our Christmas tree up and the house ready for the Christmas season!

With love. . .
