Lately.....

Rylie's been "cheesing" more at the camera Rylie's gotten into the habit of picking up ALL of her friends and carrying them out of her room every morning.
Mom and dad have been playing with toys. Here's mom's log cabin.
and dad's...I think he said it was some sort of fort out of which you shoot weaponry or something like that.

Lately...

Rylie's been making LOTS of funny faces!
and doing lots of funny things.
Lately...

Rylie's become a big fan of Elmo. Here she is watching the all-too-important-in-her-life-these-days, Elmo's Song. (just look at the satisfaction on that face!)
And doing more cheesin' for the camera.
Lately...
Rylie's been having more intense chats with Monkey

and mommy fights the winter weather daily by pulling out spring clothes.
Rylie grins and giggles over the smallest things.

Lately...

Mom's been feeling very domestic.
