Little Ry is 6 months old

My little giant turned 6 months old this week. He is weighing in at 23lbs. 7oz. 29 1/2" long. He got his first tooth this week too, which means I didn't get much sleep at night. :( Otherwise he is doing great. He is a happy/active boy. We put up the Christmas tree today finally and he likes all the lights. Big Ry is keeping busy with wrestling. I am getting back into the routine of teaching/ being a parent. Not enough hours in the day!!!

2+ months

I can't believe my (BIG) little baby is all ready 11 weeks old. Ryan and I are having so much fun being parents. Right now RJ (nick-name that has stuck) is smiling, laughing out loud, makes funny noises trying to talk, sitting up, sleeping, and eating a lot-as always!
I am having fun staying home with him this first quarter of school. I don't have to go back teaching till November 1st. I know I won't want to go back then, but I am enjoying the days that I have right now with my little dude.
Ryan is back teaching and coaching football. RJ and I went to the first football game of the year. RJ did pretty good, he slept 8 1/2 hours after! :) More football games for that kid!
Other than that, just enjoying the nice warm weather and enjoying life.

The proud papa.

All wrapped up nice and snug.

Ryan junior was born 2 1/2 hours after the Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup. He had a Stanley Cup victory beanie waiting for him, thanks to Hannah Zimmermann.

It's a Boy!!!!

On June 10, Ryan James Lyle Jr. came out to meet his mom and dad. "Little" Ryan was 10 pounds 3 ounces, and 21 inches long. He has a bunch of dark brown hair, huge hands, and looks a bit like his dad, especially his ears. He likes to be wrapped up tight and stay very warm. He was brought home Friday, June 11th.
