The first of many...

Hi everyone. Scott, Jill and Ryley are settling in for the long winter here in the great Northwest. Scott's studying Visual Communications through Eastern Washington University. He'll be working in the advertising and design industry. This could mean designing blockbuster movie graphics or simply working in a design studio creating ad campaigns for any size company. That's it in a nutshell...

Jill has been fantastic lately, taking care of Ryley during the day. She takes her on "field trips" to the library, the park, aunt Nicole's house, or simply cuddles with her while they watch Blue's Clues. I'm very glad to come home after an 8-10 hour day of studying to be with them.

Ryley is now walking on her own. She'll take a tumble then get right back up and keep going. She is sooo proud of herself when she does. She's very aware of her surroundings, reads books on her own, and tells us via sign language when she's thirsty, and then "thank you" gesture. She's 16 months now and is anxiously awaiting her baby brother Kiraly (spelling is under consideration).
