Tonight we went out for dinner with the wonderful gift card Ryan earned for reffing salao. We went to Five Guys for burgers, and 99 for dessert. Yum yum.... I definitely ate too much! Afterward we wanted to walk around somewhere to relieve the extremly full feeling in our stomachs, so I suggested going to Home Depot.
That's right, my closet full of clothes and shoes might make me look like a total girly girl, but really I have a lot more interests. For example, Home Depot gets me so excited! I dream about building my own house, and creating wonderful landscaping, and a beautiful backyard. I love looking at the model kitchens, and the doors, and the lighting. Designing houses is kind of a hobby, except I only get to design them on Sims.
Todays trip was more exciting than usual because we were planning on what to do with our backyard once we get it. Patio sets, fire pits, vegetable gardens, flower boxes, lighted walkways..... oh the possibilities....

Healthy Baby
Ryleigh just had her 1 month check up at the doctor's. She is 8lbs 7oz now, and she is 21in long. I forget what her head circumference is. But the doctor said she is in the 25 percentile for everything. She was in the 25% when she was born, so she's growing pretty well and the doctor said she is proportional.
She also had a shot today :-( My poor baby. But she had it easy this week. Next time she needs 4 shots. That's not going to be fun.
So, despite what Ryan says, my baby is growing well and is not a porker!!

You are my sunshine
Ryleigh is definitely the sunshine in my life right now, but I miss the real sun! I need to feel the sun on my skin. Right now I think I'd even take a sunburn just so I feel warm for a change.
I'm so glad I will have a backyard and a porch to lay out and get a tan this summer. After living in dorms, apartments, and houses with open backyards where everyone can see you this will be a nice change.
Ryleigh hates being cold too. She definitely takes after me in that aspect... too bad we can't convince daddy that keeping the heat at 70 isn't going to send us to the poor house... instead me and Ryleigh just have to cuddle under blankets all day.

Snow bunny
Ryleigh's snowsuit is absolutely huge on her...
But I think it's okay because she's more interested in trying to eat the snowsuit than enjoying the snow.

Helpless
I know I blogged about how well things turned out for my sister.... well, she got some news, she can't start her military training until August, which means she doesn't get her money til August, which means she is basically going to be homeless.
She's all the way across the country, unable to come home because she has weekend training every weekend, and she can't just quit the military. She has no money for rent, or food, and with the poor economy she can't find a job. She's in serious need of some help. Please, please pray for her. My biggest fear is that my sister will end up on the streets. I would do absolutely anything for my sister, but when her biggest problem is money and I don't have much anyway, it's kind of hard to help. All I can do is pray for her, and pray that someone in our family will let her borrow some money.
