LIfe in July....

Ryker decided to celebrate his first Fourth of July in style and where else can you do that but....

GREEN LAKE OF COURSE!!

Last minute - we all decided it would be great to get away for a few days - so we packed up Maddie and Ryker (and Aunt Brooke, Laura, Bob, my mom and Le) and headed up to Wisconsin.

We stayed in a new house this time (more of a log cabin feel) but it couldn't have been more perfect. While we were there - Ry decided to really start sitting up on his own which has brought a new sense of freedom for him (and for me!) :-)

our first day at the lake....

his beautiful (and VERY active) cousin Maddie

Nothing better than quick nap with Grammie by the Lake...

Life in June...

Let's catch up on life in the Nguyen Household. In June Ryker made the trip to California to meet his West Coast Grandma and he was definitely a hit!

His Aunt Beatrice loved to see him as well!!

While he was there he figured he would take a quick dip in her kitchen sink!

He was definitely a trooper! He did great on his first plane ride too! He slept two hours on the way out there and slept the whole way back.

We packed just about everything but the kitchen sink - but we made it!!
