Sweet Little Rylan


September 13, 2009

Very Sleepy

Time is flying by... I go back to work in 2 weeks. It’s crazy to think that it's already been 5 weeks since Rylan was born. I'm very grateful that I have had the time to spend with him now….all day, every day! He’s such a sweetie! Kyle works until midnight and misses out on some of the cute things Rylan does in the evenings. I take lots of pictures so I can show him later what happened.

One particular night last week after feeding Rylan, he was incredibly sleepy! When normally he would cry because he was tired plus kick and fuss as I changed him, he was completely out of it. I was able to change his diaper, get him undressed, and dressed again in his sleeper as well as lay him down in his crib without him opening an eye or even making a peep. (A very rare thing!) I moved him around a lot too in the process! I had to take a few pictures to show Kyle so he’d see just how sleepy Rylan really was. Below is a little “slideshow” to show the process of me changing him with him still sound asleep.

It was definitely off to bed with sweet little Rylan. :)

Blessing Day

This past Sunday Rylan had his baby blessing. It was a very special occasion and we enjoyed having so many family members here to visit!! Kyle seemed pretty calm prior to the blessing, I however was nervous for how Rylan would be during it. It's a good thing we have such a wonderful bishop who helped him stay calm by pushing in his pacifier every time he got fussy over and over again. We are grateful for all those who traveled quite a distance to see and hear his blessing. It meant a great deal to us to have you all here!





We had a good friend take most of our pictures so I'll post more (and better) ones later. :)
