It's coming....

Crawling....it's coming soon!!! It's just a matter of when he can move forward. He's got going backwards down pat!

Family Pictures- 6 1/2 months

We had a photographer take some family photos of us at the end of June when Ryan was 6 1/2 months old.  Here are some of the shots!

Piano Time

Lee and I have a piano that used to be my Grandma Coker's. Ryan really loves playing it! Hopefully one day he'll take lessons and learn how to play!

The Scoot

Ryan is beginning the crawling process and it is starting with a scoot backwards. Oh my....our lives are about to be rocked!!

Farmville

Lee humored the two women in his life and let me put this Feltman Brothers bubble outfit on Ryan for church on Sunday. It was too cute, just not Lee's taste. Here's a picture with his cousin Matthew too.

Farmville Friends

Last weekend we went to Farmville to visit Lee's family and while we were there we got to visit with some of Lee's friends from high school, Katy and Andy Tew and their kiddos. McKinley is only about 2 weeks younger than Ryan but he's got her by several pounds :) She's crawling all over the place and has been for a while so I told her she didn't need to show Ryan and tricks while we were there. Too late I think :) He's already started the scooting backwards. Here's a couple of pictures of the daddies and the kiddos.

A Night Out

We all got babysitters and headed out for a night on the town. 

Dinner and dancing....just like the old days.  Fun times!

 

 

Beach Week with Kiddos

Every year my very best friends from college come in town to visit and we head to the beach.  The last couple of years Eli has been the lone kiddo, but now there's more!  I must say it's a whole different ball game heading to the beach with 4 kids in tow, 3 of them being babies.  Wow.  Times have changed.  From the strollers, beach blankets, umbrellas, toys, diapers, food and all the other stuff we never had to take before, it can be cumbersome.  Thanks Jonathan for helping us mamas out.  You know we love you!!!  Jonathan took a priceless picture on his phone with all of our gear set up on the beach that I don't have on my computer, otherwise I would have posted it.  It was quite a humorous site. 
Here are a few pictures of the kiddos together:  Jenna, Jillian, Eli and Ryan.  This was also another humorous site trying to watch us adults take a few pics with all the kid trying to get them to look in the same direction and possibly smile.  Quite funny.

 

 

 

Having a baby conversation.....Hmmm...wonder what they are trying to say????
