Up to no good....

Ryan's personality is becoming more evident by the day. On the one hand (positive), we have a very fun, talkative, independent, smart little girl. On the other hand (perhaps the one that gets into trouble), we have a fun, talkative, independent, smart little devil.

Hoping mom doesn't think this is a 'no-no' moment. What? I should be able to climb into drawers of my liking. Chill out mom.

Sucker, mom left the Halloween candy lying around. I'm just going to take a quick look.

Well maybe I'll move this bag, grab the other one and try to hide in my room.

As strong as I am, these are heavy. Better to just sit down and dig away right here in the kitchen.

Aww shucks mom - stop telling me what to do!

The below pictures are proof as to how I have mom and dad eating out of my hand. As devilish as I can be, I am an equally amazing charmer when it suits me....

A fall preview...

Searching for the perfect pumpkin...

Hanging out with mom

Dad's turn...

My first John Deere experience...

Drumroll please for the Halloween preview - what could possibly go wrong if her initial reaction is any indication?

*Probably not best to pick a costume that happens to accomplish 2 of Ryan's biggest annoyances: anything on or near her head and no access to her fingers. But hey, it was Jack's costume last year and was precious on him so she'll just have to deal.

A little bit of this, a little bit of that...

We have been severely lacking in the blog-updating department..... Here are a few oldies but goodies from the summer before we get into all of Ryan's fall pics.

First trip to the barber shop; obviously not for the 5 strands of hair Ryan has, but to keep dad company for a bit.

At the park with mom - enjoying the 'wa-wa':

Grandpa and his two favorite peeps at Bagel Day.

Jack's face pretty much sums up his relationship with Ryan. Always in fear of what she may be up to next....

The greatest babysitter Lowe's has to offer. Ryan LOVES Lowe's (or Home Depot) and is even more obsessed with the bath tubs - it's quite the nice little break for mom and dad.

Fun. Seriously.

Pooped after a long, fun summer - time to rest up for a busy fall.
