Rasin' the kids together




It is such a special experience for my sister & I to be raising our kids together at the same time & them being so close in age. So neat and so fun! Ryder, 8 months Ayla, 5 months.











New Shades







Grandma Ranch got these shades for Ayla. We were laughing because she looks like Elton John. HA!

Give Me A BIG Kiss!




Ayla started eating her first solid foods this month. She LOVES carrots.
Not too fond of the rice cereal though, we have to sneak it into other things. She sure is growing and changing a lot now. She is rolling over and trying to sit up on her own. Dusty & I are enjoying each new stage with her. She also likes to go go go. She started doing this scream tantrum thing and when Dusty's Grandma Ruth visited she started laughing and said Dusty did the same thing! HA, and he thought she got it from me! We still aren't exactly sure what color her eyes will turn out. Some days they look brown, some days green, and some days hazel. Hmmmm, guess we wait. Auntie Karlene has been watching Ayla while we work and Ayla just adores her. We are so lucky to have family be able to watch her while we work. Only 5 more weeks until school is out for the summer for me. We have 6 days cut off our school year due to the budget shortfall this year, so we are getting out a week early. It is not looking good for next year either and they keep threatening to layoff teachers. If they do that I guess I will have to be a stay at home mom with Ayla and then sub when I want (oh darn). ;) All is well with Dusty. He is still working at the hospital in the ER. He is also the EMT Director at KCC, and most recently he has been chosen to join the new Air Lift emergency transfer unit they brought here to Klamath Falls. He really likes that. There were a lot of people who applied for it and didn't get it, but Dusty did and they really like him! He has been all over in the airplane and helicopter they have. He works as the Paramedic on board, then they have a flight nurse and pilot. Ayla & I went to visit him during one of his 24 hour shifts out at the airport and we got to tour around and get into the plane and helicopter, it was neat. We are a pretty happy little family! :)
