Creative Storage Solution

Who needs a block bucket when I have my sweater to store my blocks in?

Special Delivery

Caroline got a very special Fed Ex delivery a few days after Ryan left.
See? Addressed to her and everything.

It was a special DVD of Daddy reading Pinnochio!

Caroline read along with him.

These last two aren't real great, but atleast you can see Ryan on the TV.

War Eagle!

The game didn't end well for us Auburn fans, but they sure did play a good game!

Its great to be an Auburn tiger!

R & R

Ryan came home in early November for his 15 day R&R and we enjoyed every cotton pickin' second of our time together! Caroline was only shy for a few minutes before she was loving all over her Daddy like he'd never even been gone. We all had a wonderful time getting reacquainted. Here are a few pics...

Playing in Daddy's shoes...



Family portrait...one of my favorites!


Notice Ryan's cell phone in her hand...that's gonna be a hard habit to break!

Caroline even let Daddy put her to bed a few times!

At the airport at the crack of dawn

Saying goodbye for 5 more months...

p.s. Caroline always seemed to be wearing these monkey jammies when pictures were taken. I promise she doesn't wear them every day! =)

October in Review

OK, I know it looks as if my blog has been abandoned, but I assure you it hasn't! We have been busy busy in the Cryer house and I just haven't taken the time to update. To avoid 20 posts, I'll try to update as succinctly as possible. =)

Some Things We Did in October...
I know you can't tell from these pics, but we went to the zoo with our neighbors...


These babies were all born within a two week span!

We also went to the Pumpkin patch with our neighbors Nicci and Allison
