Just a swingin'!

Here are a few pics of when Ryker and Sophia wanted CeCe and I to take them to the park so that they could check out the swings!


I guess Ryker hasn't figured out how to be a thrillseeker yet!
I think we were interrupting his nap time!


Sophia sure did enjoy herself!






Then finally as we were leaving he cracks a smile!
Bailey still loves her Ryker!

I need your opinion!

I know if you are on this blog right now, you are expecting new Ryker pictures, I will get some on here soon, but in the mean time I need everybody's opinion. I can sign this blog up for a program called Adsense. It allows google to puts ads on the blog that are relevant to the subject matter, then if you loyal lookers (or cyberstalkers as I like to be refered to) click on the link created by the ad, I earn money. I am sure its not very much money, its probably only a few scents for every thousand clicks, but I thought I would give it a try, under the understanding that all the money I earn will go in a college fund for Ryker, unless of course it amounts to thousands and thousands of dollars, then I might keep a little, because am not convinced yet that Ryker will go to Harvard or Yale.

I know this seems like a crazy idea, but there is this one lady that has a blog about her life and her family that has become so popular her and her husband do not work and make about $40k a month from the ads on her blog, and she has gotten so popular she even has written a few books. Now I know my little blog about my little man will never be that popular, I am not that good of a storyteller to have the thousands of followers that she has, so my goal is not to be a professional blogger, I am just curious to see if I can get a college fund started for Ryker.

So here is where all of you come in. Please email me with your opinion of all of this and if I should "monetize" my blog, or if you all think its a bad idea, and also let me know if you will agree to occasionally click on the links just to see if it will pay off. My email is LJ868@aol.com, or put a response in the comment section. Please be honest, you will not hurt my feelings. I know I have quite a few cyberstalkers out there, you know who you are! Please let me know what you think!

Thanks,
Ryker's Mommy

Bailey's favorite place!

I don't know why she likes Ryker's toy so much. Is she jealous and wants a this toy for her own? Does she feel safe under all of the thingamajigs? Does she wish or thinks she is a baby too? Does she like the noise all of the thingamajigs make? I just don't know, but I do know this is her favorite place to be!

Ryker and Sophia at the zoo!

Just a few snapshots from when Ryker and I went with my friend CeCE and her daughter Sophia (Sophia is 3 days older than Ryker) and a few other friends to the KC zoo.



I guess he just not that into her yet! Maybe when he gets older!
Sophia is so pretty!
So is her mommy!

My good ol' Chloe girl is famous!

A few months back I entered a picture of Chloe in a calendar contest at Rocky Mountain Great Dane Rescue, I never heard anything about, so I thought I must not have won. Then this morning I got an email saying the winners had been decided, but it said nothing about who the winners were, only a link to look at the winning pictures, boy was I surprised!

Good ol' Chloe made the calendar!!!!

Let me know if you are interested in purchasing a calendar when they come out, all the money goes towards rescuing these gentle giant, and I will let you know when they come out and how you can get one! I think I am going to order a few for myself!

Ryker is 5 months old!!

Here are some recent random shots and another attempted photo shoot. I'll get better at them sooner or later!

Yes, he really is standing by himself, leaning on the couch! But he had help getting there.



Since Ryker has discovered how roll over, he likes to lay on his side, like he is cool or something! LOL




I can't leave Bailey out! Check out how big she is getting!


And yes, Bailey still loves her Ryker!
Do you think she realizes how spoiled she is?

Family resemblance?

Pappa and Mammoo (Richard's Parents)  were here this weekend!  Pappa sure is proud!





Richard's mom brought these pictures of Richard when he was little.  I don't think there is any denying who Ryker belongs too!

Hiding under the couch!
Does he have a lot of toys or what!  He hardly fits in his playpen!
Richard's first steps!

That darn Bailey always making sure she gets love too!
