4 months

Mary Ryan had her 4 month check up yesterday. She is a whopping 13 lbs 10ozs and 24 inches long. Still a little peanut but she is creeping up there! As you can see from the picture she was a little nervous about the shots, but she did great. She cried as they were giving her the shots, but as the nurse was putting the bandaids on her, she stopped crying and smiled! It was really cute. The doctor said to me many times ' you have one happy baby on your hands '. She is the best!!!

all bundled up

Mary Ryan is all bundled up and ready for winter! It's getting cold out there.

Hope everyone had a very happy thanksgiving! we certainly did. Brian and I hosted 2 couples, the Kirk's and the Sattelmair's, for dinner. Tim Kirk is 2 month's old and Mary Ryan and him are becoming fast friends! We had such a great time and are so thankful to have made such great friends out in KC!

christened

Godparents, Aimee and Mark


On November 23, Mary Ryan was christened. Nana & Papa O'Sullivan, Mama & Pop O'Neill, Aimee, Mark, Ryan, Stephen and Henry Fulchino all made the trip out to KC for the big day. Brian and I are so grateful for all of them making the trip out. It was a crazy weekend to say the least, but it was so great to have everyone together! Here are some pics from the weekend (i've also put some more on the slide show).

waking up.

It won't come as much of a surprise to anyone to hear that Mary Ryan loves her crib. It might be because she loves to sleep! When Mary Ryan wakes up in the morning, she loves to hang out in her crib for awhile before she begins her day. We'll hear her talking away to herself which is the cutest thing ever!!! I thought I'd share with you one of my favorite times with her - the morning.

p.s. excuse the baby talk!

Gregg!

Our good friend Gregg has been in KC for the week. He works for State Street so lucky for Brian and I we get to see him out here quite a bit. Gregg is one of our closest friends and Mary Ryan just loves hanging out with him!

p.s. Sorry for the lack of updates. I have started working again so getting the time to take pictures and update the blog is harder than usual. But I promise to do my best!
