Big Big Girl Bed

With Parker on the way, we let Ryleigh "pick out" her new bedroom furniture. She was already in a toddler bed and we decided to get her a twin bed with trundle and storage. We moved Ryleigh's old furniture into Parker's room to start getting his room ready. Ryleigh loves her new furniture...bed, nightstand, dresser and desk!


Trying to decide how to arrange it all!


Ryleigh helping Papaw and Bear fit it just right.


All smiles from Ryls!




First night in new bed!


Too excited to sleep

Announcing Baby BROTHER

We found out on July 5th that we are having a BOY! We are SO excited about him and can't wait for him to be here! We chose to let Ryleigh announce that she'd be a big sister to a brother. I couldn't think of anything creative, so I just had Ryleigh "draw" a sign that said "Brother". We practiced her opening the sign up to announce our news, but when it came down to revealing to everyone, she didn't want to particpate. After a little bribing, she finally played along. I didn't get many good pictures due to me trying to persuade her!



Practicing before everyone arrived.
