A couple of days ago, Daddy and Rylan spotted a raccoon in a tree behind our house. Rylan has a love for animals so he thought that this was especially cool. The raccoon hung out in this tree for most of the day and Rylan kept insisting on going outside to see him. I think we went outside about a zillion times before the raccoon finally left the tree. Even though the raccoon is gone now, Rylan still often looks out the window just to see if by chance he has returned. When he realizes that he hasn't, he waves his hand and says "Bye, bye!" We hope he stops by for another visit soon!
Since the raccoon siting, Rylan has developed a new best friend; our dog Libby's stuffed raccoon named Rocky. He's been in our house since before Rylan was born, but he never noticed until now. Thankfully Libby doesn't play with it anymore, because Rylan and Rocky are now inseparable. They snuggle on the couch together, eat together, and sleep together. I can only imagine what will happen when Rylan spots another animal in our backyard.

It seems like yesterday that Ry was born....I can't believe he is now a little man. I love watching the little stages the kids go through....especially the sweetest ones. Ry is so sweet and you guys are doing such a great job!

Haha, that is so cute! Maybe he will be an animal rescuer!
That is so cute that he has such a soft spot for the raccoon! Kids are so funny- I am always surprised at what Rowen decides he is interested in- never what I expect usually.
I have been thinking of you and hoping that your project is coming along and that you are almost done! We will have to get together to celebrate as soon as you are done!
How cute! I love how excited babies get with something new...great that he is an animal lover. Clara is too!
