Pool

Well summer is in full swing at the Purdy house, and every chance Rylan gets he is outside in his new pool. He doesn't care who is with him; Momma, Da-Da, or a friend. Ms. Allison got him this pool and he LOVES it! The tail of the giraffe is where the water spray's out, and yes that is the part that Rylan loves to play with. When the water has gotten a little too deep I will turn off the water and he will get out. So, I turn it back on and he will go and get back in. The only problem we have had is that he has put sand in it a time or two, and then we have to dump the entire thing, clean it, and fill it up again. I guess that is the downfall of having a pool and a sandbox in the backyard.

Ms. Allison, thank you so much for such a great gift!

Stranded

I will start by saying "Yes, I was home". Now and days I can't turn my back for two seconds and Rylan has found something new to play in. This morning he was being particularly good. He was going from toy to toy, playing and laughing. As you all know, when it gets quite you know they are up to something. Well lets just say he got real quite while Mommy was doing the dishes. I titled this blog stranded because the next time someone has to use the restroom at our house they may be stranded and in need of some toilet paper. The pictures pretty much explain our little man's surprise when Mommy caught him.

Rylan never seizes to make Mommy laugh. By the way I left all the toilet paper where it was so when Daddy got home he could see Rylan's masterpiece!

Memorial Day Sale

It seems as though it is the tiniest things that can bring you great joy! Well this is a tiny/silly thing that is now bringing Tyson and I COMFORT! We sporadically decided to buy a new mattress. We have had aching backs and been sleeping terrible for a while now. We had first thought that it was because we were now parents however, Rylan has been sleeping through the night for 8 months now, and we still don't sleep well. Well we woke up Sunday and saw all of the great deals (Memorial Day Sales) and thought now is as good as time as any. So we decided it was time to get rid of our 20+ year old mattress and make an investment in a good nights sleep. It was delivered yesterday and I have to say "AWE". It feels nice to wake up refreshed.
