Now, how could that sweet bird be a piece of work?!

Dontcha love it when they stretch their wings & feet like that, though?

he is SO cute, i love ryan! i missed seeing photos of him, thanks for posting.

Ohhhh! Thanks you guys! Ryan is 7 months old today. He is my sweet boy, but he is also my little devil. Camille, Ollie is driving you bonkers? I know the feeling! It's strange, almost like he goes thru phases of being really good and then he's tearing my house apart. He will forever find something that he is not supposed to have.

He's also talking up a storm. He doesn't just say hello, he yells HELLO!

The mirror is on one wall of my living room. I was thinking of taking it down but that would be a huge project. It was there when I moved in.

Oh my gosh, yes! The terrible 2's have hit hard! Not a day goes by where I'm not taking deep breaths and counting to 10. So far today she has flown to the top of my bedroom door 7 times. She KNOWS she's not supposed to do that! She's also picked up the most annoying noise EVER and she does it constantly. It's so bad that I have to go to a different room and turn some music or the tv on to drown it out...it physically hurts me to hear it. Ah, this too shall pass (hopefully!).

Camille, I feel your pain. I now have a monster on my hands too. It could be the terrible two's or maybe it's something in the air! Ryan picked up a new sound too which drives me to drink. Really, it makes me drink. And then I put on music, as you do, to drown him out. He eventually he stops and sings to the music.

Pour yourself a glass of wine next time, it works wonders.

Not a big wine drinker, but I'm sure a margarita would have the same effect!

Yes! A margarita! Well, now I've got my plans for the evening.

Oh me too!!! Although I may not stop at just 'a' margarita...

what a fancy guy!

Camille, you crack me up! I must admit, I skipped the margarita and went straight for the vodka and tonic. So far, so good. But then again, he's eating.
