Ryan 7 Months












So I thought I would blog a little bit about Ryan so that I have it written down at least. He is 7 months old now and some of the things that he is doing are he can roll over and scoot everywhere he wants. This of course has resulted in a couple of bruises from being angry at mom and rolling off the couch and of course the first time rolling off the bed. No more high places for him especially for short amounts of time...lol... You would think second child I have learned not really. Already in his young life he has lived in two different countries and traveled more than David and I in our adult lives... He is starting to be able to get up on all 4s and we think he will be crawling soon since he loves his sister and she never sits still long enough for him to play long enough. Cute things that he does is he loves loves loves his diaper changes when he is wet or stinky. He will giggle during his diaper change like it is the funniest thing ever it is stinking adorable. He also laughs at his sister's antics she can get hime to laugh all the time just by standing next to him. He will giggle at her attempts at tickling him and also trying to make him laugh!! He loves solid food and his sippy cup that he can hold and chew on. He hasn't started cutting his teeth but we are pretty sure that he is getting ready to cut some with the way he chews on everything. He is such an adorable baby and I love having my little boy to hug and love!! Here are some recent pictures.

Venice and 6th Anniversary





























So Dave and I decided that we would make the most of living in Italy and spend our 6th wedding anniversary in a romantic spot and be cool...lol.. So Venice we went with the kids so that they could experience it with us!! We took the train to the islands and walked all over the place in Venice. We were able to see St Marks square that is in every movie and ride a water bus on the Grand Canal which Savanna wanted to ride a boat all day so it was a blast. We went to St Mary Friar Cathedral with painting dating back to the 1600's so we of course couldn't take any pictures. It was amazing the history and beauty in the city built on water. Hope you enjoy our pics and our day in Venezia!!

Ryan's First Haircut































Both of my kids never lost the hair at the base of their neck so we decided Ryan needed to have his evened out. He definately did not enjoy the clippers but his hair looked better!!!
