Elephant Swimsuit
Okay friends I am on the hunt for a pink elephant swimsuit for Elle! I saw a little girl wearing one and I am desperately searching for it. If anyone finds it either online or in a store there will be a reward in it for you. I HAVE to have it for my elle-phant :)

Yet Again
Yet again I start another blog with the words this is long overdue...
Well not today, but soon I will write a New Year's letter to our blog friends and catch up on the last few months. Nothing really exciting to tell. Our computer is fixed and we are working on getting the pictures on the external hard drive so I can load so on here and then put them on the blog, so that's good news. My babies are just too cute not to share :)

Where Do I Start?
Wow, well this could be a long one and without pictures because the mac is sadly out of commission for awhile-an expensive repair to be done :( I start with an update on each one of us...
Rylan turned two at the end of September! The day of his party it was well over 100 degrees fortunately it was a swim party, but the cupcakes melted and so did most of us. Elle went swimming for the first time and was as happy as can be. Looks like we have two water babies on our hands. Rylan is such a good big brother despite the short time of adjustment he had to having a baby sister. He is starting to put a few words together in short sentences and is curious about everything. Yesterday Kenny got him up from his nap and he was giving his doggy "Steve" lunch holding his shirt up and the doggy up to his tummy(nursing). That boy is too funny. He has a sense of humor just like his dad-silly, teasing, laughs at his own jokes. He is a great helper and loves to do "making" (cooking). He is full of love and smiles and I just can't get enough of him, I even miss him when he sleeps.
Elle is changing daily. She has been rolling over for at least a couple months probably longer but my mommy brain just hasn't stored the date, thank goodness it's written down in her baby book! She is my beautiful mommies girl. She rode in the wagon for the first time today, hard to believe she is that big already-bittersweet for me. She absolutely adores her big brother. Her shiny little eyes follow him everywhere he goes and let me tell you he is a busy one! She is learning how to use the toys on her jumperoo and is over her swing in about two minutes, time to but away the newborn gear. We are just about to start cereal with her-another bittersweet moment for mama. As excited as I am when she shows off a new skill, my heartstrings tug a bit that my sweet baby will be a toddler before I know it.
My wonderful husband has been working so hard for us the last month and a half. He has shown his love for us time and time again with a crazy work schedule and still able to have lots of fun family time. I don't know how he does it, I suspect it's a lot of prayer and caffeine :) He hasn't been able to ride either of his bikes at all and I appreciate the sacrifice in that as I know how important that time is to him. We have been trying to get to the beach as a family, yes even Kenzie, more frequently and have been having a blast. Not very much exciting to tell about me. As you will see whenever I am able to post pictures I now have dark shorter hair-cut about 10" off. Other than that I have zero time for hobbies, occasionally trying a new recipe, but I'm pretty busy with two little ones.
In September we also had a couple visitors come stay with us and celebrate Rylan's birthday. Then the beginning of this month we went on an amazing vacation to Washington. We were able to spend time friends and family, went on a couple ferry rides, played, shopped-a tiny bit,but kid free and was a nice treat for me to spend time with my mom, we went to a pumpkin patch-saw animals and went through a corn maze, and I was able to have lunch with a friend from Seattle that I've known since fourth grade. We had a great time at my cousins wedding and of course the kids were adored and SPOILED! Thank you to all our family and friends that made the trip so special for us. Our travel day home was a total disaster but we won't dwell on that.
Not much on the horizon for us at the moment. Rylan still fits his costume from last year so he will be a UPS man again and Elle will be wearing leftover duds from Rylan's birthday party last year, but she'll be the cutest darn pirate I ever saw if I do say so myself. Tomorrow is Grandma Sugar's birthday and we were so fortunate to spend time with her last month as well as the rest of the Pulliam families. Rylan loved spending time his Grandma Sugdah as he has been saying. We are working on the "ar" part of Sugar still. He'll be excited to call her in Texas tomorrow to tell her "happy party day".
What else can I say, I know I will remember things I wanted to post as soon as I step in the shower tomorrow and the water hits my head, but this will have to do for now. I am a blessed mama and wife. My family is the love of my life and I thank God for them everyday. I have sweet moments everyday that I am trying desperately to store in my memory and heart. All the cute little chatter, the intoxicating baby smell, the touch of soft Innocent hands, and smiles that bring me more joy than I ever knew existed. I can't believe how quickly time passes and that I have a two year old toddler and a 5 month old baby girl. As the days are beginning to feel like fall-finally-my blessings are at the forefront of my mind and I find myself sentimental in an instant. Fall is my favorite time of year and yes I have enjoyed some yummy pumpkin bread and delicious coffee drinks. Happy Fall friends!

Almost Fall???
Hard to believe it's almost Fall, although the cooler weather will be appreciated by all of us. Fall means Rylan's 2nd Birthday, trips to Avila Valley Barn, hopefully going WA for my cousins wedding, cooler days, yummy treats, and more sub work for Kenny-yay! We welcome the Fall with open arms...
To say the summer has been hard would be an understatement. We've been incredibly blessed by our wonderful friends in so many ways, we honestly would not have made it without them. The Blakes, Croxalls, Uppenas, Hamons,Soderins, and many more that have prayed for us and come alongside us with encouragement, invitations for dinner, provision of needs, laughter, fellowship, work, and much more have turned a very discouraging season into a season of valuable lessons learned and hope for the coming months. We thank you all from the bottom of our hearts with complete humility and sincere gratitude. The kindness and care shown to us will not soon be forgotten, not only will we forever be grateful but we will absolutely pay it forward. As one of our dear friends wisely reminded us God provides not a moment to soon nor a moment too late.
Elle will be three months old tomorrow and my heart breaks a little because it's going so fast. She is no longer a newborn but a sweet and fun little baby. I cherish every moment with my precious girl. At her two month appointment she was 12 lbs 8 oz and 23 inches. She is laughing and rolling to her side. She is sleeping so well, rarely waking up early morning to nurse. I can't say enough what a great baby she is, just another gift for us during stressful times these last few months. She has brought so much joy to our family.
Tomorrow we leave to go to San Fransisco for Rylan's fourth treatment. My parents are meeting us there and thanks to priceline we found a great place on fishermans wharf for reasonable price. We are excited for Rylan to see all the boats, interesting people, carousel, and everything else fishermans wharf offers. Last time we went he was not as aware of all the fun things happening and I was 30 something weeks pregnant so our time was brief. We are hoping tomorrow will be fun for him and all of us will enjoy the day. After his early morning treatment we will head home and my parents will follow us back down here for a few days. We have a couple fun things planned while they are here, a special way to end the summer. Rylan is such a busy little guy, running, jabbering, taking care of his doggies like we take care of Elle, cracking us up everyday, and loving his baby sister.
We are so excited Grandma Sugar is in California and that we get to introduce her to her namesake. We are headed down to the desert in a couple weeks for a quick trip to have the little ones spend some time with Sugar. The last time she was out Rylan was only four weeks old, we've been so anxious since to see her again. Thank you Grandma Sugar for making the long trip from Texas to California for all of us. We love you!
That's pretty much the latest and greatest from the Pulliam house. Someday we'll have a fabulous camera and flood the blog with photos of our adorable babes! Bring on the beautiful fall colors, fun days, and pumpkin bread!!!
