Ryan turned 6 months old today. Happy half birthday, Ryan (or how Carter says, Ry-E)! Gosh has time gone fast! I can't believe we're to this point already! I guess as a parent of two, you don't don't have a lot of extra time to stop and notice how quickly they're growing. Ryan is still as easy going as she has always been. She loves to be held but totally happy to entertain herself. She is willing to go anywhere and do anything. She is one HAPPY girl! Actually she is so pleasant we didn't realize she had her first ear infection until her 6-mo. check up at the doctor. P00r girl just doesn't complain about anything!
Latest stats:
Weight: 17 lbs. 5 oz (76%)
Height: 26.75" (85%)
Head: (22%) she still has her tiny peanut head!
Ryan is steam rolling now. She can also sit on her own for short periods of time. She loves to play with and giggle at her brother. I'm glad they get along so well because we officially moved her out of our room today and she is now bunking with Carter. With a 2-bedroom house, you don't have many options! Tonight's bedtime routine was anything but routine, but at least they are both asleep (so I think). Ryan is down to 1 (sometimes 2) feedings at night so hopefully I can sneak in, feed her and slip out without Carter ever noticing. Wish us luck!
Part 2
We had a wonderful Florida vacation with the Meek side of the family. 
We drove to Panama City Beach and spent 6 days/5 nights in a condo that sat directly on the beach. 
Surprisingly 10 adults, 2 toddlers and 2 babies fit into a 4 bedroom condo with little trouble! Aidan and Carter had a wonderful time together. They played and shared toys, watched movies, ate Popsicles and suckers and swam together the entire week without any major meltdowns. Carter struggled at night but I think that was more of a function of being away from home. 
Ryan (who we refer to as our extra luggage because she is SO easy) had no problem adjusting to a new environment. She enjoyed watching her older brother and cousins.

We swam in the pool and played at the beach every day. 
We went to an aquarium and a water park. 
We played putt-putt, took Carter on the go-carts, rode a train and carnival rides. 
Last but not least, we left with lots of great memories. It will be fun to watch these cousins (4 kids less then 4 years apart) grow up together!
