Moving!!

We're moving back to Kentucky! After much prayer and seeking after the Lord, Ryan accepted the Senior pastor position at Bloomfield Baptist Church this past Sunday. We actually just found a townhouse to rent short term while we look for a house, and we will be moving this weekend. For those of you who are familiar with Kentucky, Bloomfield is 10-15 minutes from Bardstown. Please be praying for us as we enter this new chapter in our lives. We will miss the people at Corydon Baptist, but we are looking forward to what lies ahead!

Snowy Days!

We got about 12 inches of snow this past weekend! Here are a few pics from our second biggest snow since we have lived in Indiana.

Don't worry, we only let Michael out in the cold for a couple of pictures.

Samson was pretty funny running in the snow!

Samson and Michael are buddies!
Check out Michael's cool new bib for eating cereal. I definitely recommend it. You can even put it in the dishwasher.

Daddy gives Michael BIG bites!

Growing up too fast!

I can't believe it is already March and our little boy will be 6 months old at the end of this month! He's changing so quickly! Here are some recent pictures of our little man.
He has started trying to get out of his Bumbo seat. Check out his Alfalfa hair!
And of course, we have to put some pictures of any new Bulldog outfit up.

Since our boy has started eating cereal he hasn't been spitting up near as much. He is now starting to get some thick legs! He's chubbing out!
The camera flash has already started making him blink.
Today was a beautiful day for a change so we went on a walk. This was Michael's first trip in his stroller without sitting in his carrier. He made it almost 2 miles without fussing and it was near his nap time! I guess he enjoys the outdoors. Hopefully we will have some nice weather again soon!

What's New with the Lyons Crew

We had some fun last week on our snow day! We got about 5 inches of snow and then ice on top of that, so it was pretty slick outside. We threw a tennis ball to make Samson chase it and slide everywhere. It was hilarious! Ryan even had to rescue him because he couldn't get back up the hill in our backyard.
Here's a funny face from Michael on our snow day; he was disappointed he couldn't go out and play.
Here's Michael sporting a new shirt on Sunday.
Michael thought I was crazy yesterday! He was in his exer-saucer burning some calories while I did Tae-bo. His face shows that he's not so sure about Billy Blanks!
Michael actually ate some rice cereal yesterday. I tried it a couple of times before and he wasn't interested. But yesterday he would actually open his mouth for the spoon. As you can tell from the picture, we still have some work to do on mastering cereal without making a mess!

Michael's first Valentine's Day

I was disappointed that we were not able to snap a picture of our little valentine with his "My 1st Valentine's Day" bib on yesterday. But he had his bib on at his visit to Ms. Jaimie's house. She babysat for a few hours yesterday while Ryan went to a meeting. I was so happy to see pictures from Jaimie in my email inbox this morning! Enjoy!Michael spent his first Valentine's day with a TV celebrity! Claire's picture was recently shown on the Regis and Kelly show.
Thanks again Jaimie!

Twenty-six

Happy 26th birthday Ryan!! I have the best husband in the world! Here's a picture of the cake/dessert I made him. I didn't have a "6" candle so I had to improvise.
