bummer...

we got the exciting news we might get a bigger rent house....but it wasn't all that great other than a good back yard. i do wish we had a fenced in yard...plus, the rent money she was asking was way too high $675 in clinton oklahoma. oh well. i just have to have patience.

i forgot to tell a story about ryan. we were getting ready for dance class...since i am maternity clothes size now i was looking for some awesome maternity jeans. i asked ryan "have you seen my fat pants....mommy is getting big, don't you think?" she was looking at me cause i was throwing clothes everywhere....i told her "the baby in mommy's belly is getting big...did you know mommy has a baby in her tummy?" she looked at me and said "UH-OH" and showed me her belly button!

i haven't really written about ryan much...she is just a talking away!! she is going to be a dr for halloween...now she says "doctor"...i counted and she says over 60-70 words. i worked with her age kids what seems forever...i never got why parents were so PROUD of their kids saying words...i just think it's the natural process of growing up...now i know where they were coming from. another thing she does is count. i must count a bunch and seseame street counts a bunch too...i was like "oh yea, she hears me counting and she's repeating"...nope, the other day i watched her try to count bugs....of course it isn't all together...she counts 1-6 and skips 4.....also, when she high five's she says "five....six".

potty training is right around the corner...i was trying to see if she might be ready about a month ago...she would sit on the potty and once she got up she would go!! BUMMER! so, i thought i would wait closer to 22 months...try to have her trained by her birthday....but a couple days ago she went number 2 and pointed at her bottom!

dr. mann gave us a speech when he was discharging us about how to cherish her being so little because with a blink of an eye they grow up...have to admit...dr. mann is definitely right!! seems like it took forever for her to walk...but when she did...she simply woke up that day and walked everywhere!! seems like waiting for her to really talk was forever...but a couple weeks ago she went from 20 words to 50! i guess things click and the rest is history. i remember her tiny and able to pick her up with one hand...now...she's half as tall as me!!

well, thought i would post updates that we aren't moving!! bummer. but i know God has some plan in store for us a new house and the new business to take off!! chao!
