Preface: This week was very full. I know there are far too many photos but I couldn't seem to narrow it down any more. Next week I start my new job and Ryko starts school at the same place. So pictures will slow down.
Ryko has a new found love for money. He loves to get our change jars, dump them out, play with the money, and then put it away.
He loves to take good care of his baby, especially cleaning her.
She keeps him company during lunch.
He loves his Tata Bear and being under blankets. Especially when he is still waking up. :)
We spent a family night at the packaging plant "helping" dad work. :) It was a nice night.
Ryko finds the craziest place to keep his baby. ;)
He naps so beautifully!
Ryko watches the tractor work on our backyard. The septic system is being replaced with city sewer. Hallelujah!
Counting change again...
Talking to Bumpa
My garden is growing so beautifully. I love watching it change.
My flowers still live and thrive. :)
We took a family walk to the park. It melts my heart to see Ryko following his dada.
Some AWESOME (in my opinion) sky shots I took on our walk with my new outdoor lens.
Ryko climbs the slanted rock wall completely on his own. BIG boy!
He gets only a little help from dad for the vertical wall.
Swingin' Time!
Happily watching our boy.
Walking home...
An attempt at some fun shots of the moon.
Ryko wears earplugs to watch the tractor some more. He loves tractors.
Balloons from Metro Tech. He loves balloons...points them out whenever he sees them. :)
Ryko wearing dada's bling and hugging his bear.
Playing with Simon while mama get her hair trimmed. Ryko is next!
Multitasking as usual...
Look into the depths of this brown eyed boy. :)
He reads and then puts the book back in his backpack. LOVE!
He reads my new plaque like a book. ;)
Ryko is ready to rock the town of Globe but for now he is contained on the patio of our B&B room. :)
The A-J Family arriving to celebrate a cousin's graduation.
Ryko ruins The Indian Ruins.
Devours cake like a maniac.
The dancing begins...Ryko wants to rock out but the music is too loud.
The itsy bitsy spider on Ryko's arm.
The Avalos clan...
Great Tios & Tia...Pilars of our family!
Cousins
Another generation of cousins
Ryko is still full of energy the next morning. So we play in the Sanctuary at the B&B.
And another generation of cousins...
It was wonderful to see and spend time with so much of my dad's family this weekend. It was even greater that they finally had the opportunity to meet my husband and son for the first time. :)
