Peaceful

I didn't want to turn on the light in case it woke them up, so the only light is from the flash on the camera. They look so peaceful and serene.

Random

Ryan is such a sweet baby with a beautiful smile! We're home from church, doesn't he look handsome in his sweater vest?


Laura put her bear in the chair and got her a drink of water. Then she sat down opposite her and had a little conversation. Too cute!

Chick-fil-A

Today, Friday July 7th, was Chick-fil-A's "Dress like me and get a free chicken sandwich" promotion. Their mascot is a cow.
Joel wore the vest I sewed him for Halloween when he was Woody from Toy Story and also wore for Laura's first birthday party which was cowgirl themed. Laura wore her pillowcase dress that I sewed when we lived in Victorville. I didn't have anything with cow print and neither did Ryan.
Joel and Laura both got free chicken sandwiches since they were wearing their cow clothing. I had a coupon that if you bought a drink and side, you got a free chicken sandwich! So dinner consisted of 3 free sandwiches, a drink and fries! (And the fruit & yogurt parfait for Laura since Joel ate his and hers sandwiches)
The place was hopping (or should I say...stampeding!!) You've never seen so many cow costumes in your life!

Uh-oh

It was quiet...too quiet. Joel went to investgate...and found this mess. Laura had taken Ryan's baby powder and liberally sprinked it all over the carpet. Sigh.... At least it vacumned up. (And I was nursing Ryan at the time so I didn't have to do it!)

Our football player

Ryan is the cutest football player you've ever seen! Look at that smile! At his 2 month check up he was 13 lbs 10 oz and is in the 95th percentile for weight. He is 24 inches and in the 90th percentile for length! I'm just positive that he is going to be a pro football player! (Or maybe a wrestler like Daddy, Gramps and Papa were)
