The Irish Times

Ryker reading The Irish Times in front of the fireplace, a typical Dublin activity for Sunday morning.

Keelin Dressing Up

These dresses were from Avo.

Bathing Beauties

Keelin and Ryker took a bath together.

Two Teeth

Ryker has two teeth on the bottom now. I think the top ones will be in soon.

First Bike

Andrew put Ryker on his first bicycle. Here he is in the backyard in Dublin. We pushed him from behind and went to the store with Ryker riding along. He had a huge grin on his face and everyone pointed out how cute he looked. One little girl ran up and kissed him on the cheek.

Of course, he particularly loved eating the tassels.

Brother and Sister!

Keelin and Ryker had lots of fun together. She liked to push his stroller, help feed and change him. They took a bath together and played with the rubber duckies too.

Playing Dress Up

I brought lots of dress up things for Keelin to play with, some of them were from my mom, "Avo." Keelin had loads of fun dressing up as a princess. She made all of us dress up. Daddy wore a bridal veil, I had a tiara and Ryker got the works: tutu, fairy wings and a flower head band.
