Here we are!!

Whoa, just logged in and realised that it has been a year since we last posted a blog post. As you know, a lot has happened within that year and Ryan the Lion has entered our world.

Ryan is now 9 weeks old and a little soldier. He's had a few little health probs here and there but he's getting through them and still smiles at us each day now.

We went out for coffee today and there was a customer who could not stopping commenting on Ryan and his hair and kept talking about him to her husband and having him to look. She was very taken but he couldn't care less. Of course Ryan is gorgeous and his hair is cute, the colouring and the fact that he doesn't need product to keep it sticking up. It grows very quickly and he'll need his very first haircut very soon before it gets too long and he'll look like a son of celebrity kid where they actually look like girls because their hair is too long!! Elle Macpherson's ring a bell? Actually, Cindy Crawford too - come to think of it, models need to get over the whole long hair thing!!

Anyway, Nat's been enjoying spending each and every day with Ryan (something wrong if she didn't) and we just don't know what happens to our days, and our weeks. They are flying by and before we know it, it is Saturday again and we say 'Ryan is (x amount of) weeks old now' and before we know it, he'll be a year old.

Nat was thinking how she can't wait until he's at this milestone and that milestone but today, she really realised how much she needs to enjoy it day at this age because she may miss it when he is older and running around. Overall, we LOVE each day!!! Ryan is the light of our lives. He keeps us on our feet now, imagine when he's on his own feet!

Anyway, we are looking forward to dinner with Zoe and Joe this Saturday night. Ryan is sleeping over at Grandma and Grandad's, so Nat will look forward to having a couple of drinks. What is funny is the other day, Ryan was having a bad day where he would only sleep for 20mins here and there and Grandma dropped by and said 'you won't do that for Grandma's' and he was looking at her at the time and as if on time, he had a huge smile on his face. She made a separate comment and again, a huge smile - as if on cue. We were laughing....

We're looking forward to a grown-ups night. Nat was always one to say that she doesn't want to be one of those mothers that talk about their kids all the time but as much as she wants to help it (by stopping) by having other things to talk about, she has come to realise that at this stage, you really don't have much to talk about but because your day and night is taken up by this little gorgeous boy and you really do lose out on alot of general conversation. But, i suppose, it is how you make it!!

Anyway, thinking that is enough for now as it is late and the eyelids are closing involuntarily because they are so heavy.

Til next time, and hopefully it won't be as long.

Cheers,
J&N
