Just a Quick Note

Friends and Family,

Things are going well in South Bend. Ryan is getting ready to start his second semester of Law School. So, we are trying to spend as much time together as possible...before he disappears behind his desk for the next few months.

Ryan Patrick is getting so big. He rolls all over the place....and actually pulled up to a stand today while sitting in the laundry basket. (His daddy thought the laundry basket was a good place to play.) He loves to eat. Right now, his favorite foods are pears and greenbeans....although turkey comes in at a close third. While he isn't the best at it, he is starting to get the hang of his sippy cup.

Ryan and I are so blessed to have such a wonderful baby boy. We couldn't be any happier.

More pictures soon,

Amy, Ryan, and Ryan Patrick

Merry Christmas

Hello,

Sorry it has been so long since we have posted any pictures. I tried to post a few extras to make up for it.

We spent Christmas at the Skipper's house this year. Ryan Patrick got to visit with his Nana and Papa John. He also met his Uncle Randy and Aunt Charlotte, as well as his cousins Lena and Little John. He even got to meet his Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa Shirey. (Not to mention all of Papa John's cows!) Ryan Patrick was very happy with all the presents Santa and family gave him. He received books, sleepers, all kinds of toys and of course the much appreciated college fund contributions. Thanks everyone!

In other news, Ryan finished his first semester of Law school. We are still waiting on grades, but at least we had the holidays free of studying. (Do you like how I use "we" when speaking of law school....?) Ryan is really looking forward to Constitutional law next semester. Hopefully, he will still be excited about it in March or even May for that matter.

Also, we finally sold our house in Corpus - so that is a gigantic relief.

More good news: Ryan's brother Ronny finished his second tour in Iraq and is on a ship heading home. He should be back in the states by mid-February.

We hope all is well with everyone. Hope you had a very Merry Christmas and a great New Year.

Ryan, Amy and Ryan Patrick

Go Navy, Beat Army

Not much new happening this week. Just wanted to post a few new pictures and share the good news about Navy's win. BEAT ARMY!!!

Go Navy, Beat Army!

We went over to a fellow law student's house (West Point Grad) for the big game. We're sure Ryan Patrick's shirt had something to do with the big win. BEAT ARMY!!! Posted by Picasa

Toes are YUMMY!

Ryan's newest trick is to put his toes in his mouth. Silly Baby! Posted by Picasa
