a hug for you
Journaling:
Does it get any cuter than this? It was their own idea. Tyler and Sarah have become such good friends at the little league baseball games this year, where Ryan and Sarah’s older brother are teammates. They came up with this new game completely on their own. First, they run in opposite directions for about 20 feet. Then turn around and run full steam ahead to each other, colliding in a heartfelt hug (which, a few times, caused them both to end up tumbling to the ground – only escalating their laughter level even higher). What a sweet and endearing friendship!

my 2 favorite southpaws
Another one made with the June kit from The Scrapperie! I'm loving working with this kit!
Journaling: We saw signs when you were less than a year old, picking up Cheerios off your highchair tray – it looked like you were going to be a lefty!
Since Daddy and I are both right-handed, we figure you must get it from Grandpa Brown, who was more than happy to give you a left-handed coloring lesson, when he was here for a visit.
How fun for you to share that special little something with Pa-pa.
I love you both.

can you say cheese-y?
Made with the fabulous June kit from The Scrapperie!
Journaling:
Ryan and Jacob had such a great time together at Chuck E. Cheese! But they just couldn’t resist hamming it up for the camera with their cheesy grins and silly faces!

fear factor
Journaling:
Kids love Chuck E. Cheese, right? Am I missing something here? This was your reaction – a near hysterical meltdown – upon spotting the large rodent meandering about in the restaurant. Well, hopefully Chuck E. didn’t take it too personally. It was the same reaction that you have to all costumed large-as-life characters: Ricky Raccoon at Idlewild, the Pirate Parrot at PNC Park, even the Easter Bunny! I imagine you will grow out of it soon, just like Ryan did. In the meantime, Mommy’s arms are always ready and waiting for you.

(sometimes you need to get) a new perspective
This is a scraplift of Crystal Jeffrey Rieger for the Team Supreme challenge at The Scrapperie!Journaling:
"Upside down, Mommy... carry me upside down!" You have this love of being upside down lately, Tyler. So it didn't really surprise me to find you like this - watching tv! Just like you - my silly boy. May 2007.

What a great helper! You made me so pround, helping to encourage Tyler, by reading his potty books to him.
Rub-on quote on photo reads: a big brother is someone to look up to

Sweet Celebration
Journaling:A stop at Dairy Queen for an ice cream treat! What a perfect way to celebrate Ryan’s first day of kindergarten!
My Brother's Seeker
Journaling:I hope that you and Ryan always share this closeness, this connection. Sometimes the bus has barely left in the morning when you start asking “Mommy, when will Ryan be home?” with that sad and forlorn look of loneliness. It is, at the same time, heartwarming and heartbreaking. When 3:00pm rolls around, you eagerly insist on watching out the front door. As soon as the bus can be seen coming down the street, you excitedly share the news: “RYAN’S HOME! RYAN’S HOME!” Hardly able to contain yourself as big brother makes his way up the front walk and to the door, you are poised and ready to give him a big hug. True brotherly love at its finest.
Quote: More than a forever friend, you are a joy to the heart and love without end.
