Pictures

Greetings! I posted a bunch of pictures - a lot from today. Others from earlier in March. Ryan sure has my hair. My hair grows straight forward over my face and it appears he inherited that. He has a perfect combination of Paul's eyes and my eyes. Paul has brown eyes, I have blue... Ryan's are brue? I don't have a name for his color, but I suppose if we were to mix brown and blue we'd get what he has. We've reached the challenging phase of toddler-hood. For a while there I thought I had the most agreeable, easy going toddler ever. First time mother oblivion? He had four molars come in all at once and with that came a toddler, "terrible-two" attitude. I don't mean to complain about it - I kind of enjoy it.... unless it's screaming loud enough to hurt my ears in a grocery store... or when I am trying to keep him out of a mud puddle and my hands are full.... he pulls the - toddler, I have lost all my muscle control move. I enjoy it because I see him gain independence, learn new things and strengthen his personality. Being a parent is pretty cool.
I love this picture of Paul and Ryan.
Paul is still doing the job hunt. The interview he had last week does not sound like it is going to work out, sadly. It was the closest things he's had to a job possibility since he got laid off. He's frustrated. I'm frustrated. Fortunately we are not taking our frustration out on each other!
I want to mention that two of my favorite people are having birthday's in the next few weeks. My nephew Michael is turning 17 April 7th, and my niece Kelsey is turning 15 tomorrow. Happy Birthday you two! You've grown up before my very eyes - stop making me feel so OLD!
