At her first birthday party! Most little ones are walking at this age, but she had just figured out how  to crawl. What an amazing day!

This was taken this past weekend. Payton at 3 1/2 years with her not so little sister Emma..lol. Emma is 8 months(born one month early). Payton is still quite the peanut as you can see..lol

Rylee Starr was born May 21, 2009 at 31 wks weighing in at 2.7 and 14in long.  She was born early due to me having pre-eclampsia. 

This is her daddys wedding ring.  They wouldnt let me see her due to being on mag, I couldnt believe what he was telling me. (about how small she was) so he took off his wedding ring put it over her hand and took a pic.  He has a size 10 finger...

Rylee spent 1 month and 3 days in the NICU (no complication's thank goodness) she came home on June 24, 2009 weighing 4lbs 1oz.  1 month exactly from her July 24 due date.

and this was her in October during her 1st beach trip!

and her in her Halloween costume this past Halloween!

Rylee will be 6 months on Novemeber 21 and today she weighs about 14lbs.  She is developmentally on a 4month old level!  So far so good!
