Ryan and Nolan on the news!

meeting little Helen

Ryan's younger sister, Pamela, had her second child a few weeks ago, Helen Ruth Spurlock.  Ryan was sick the weekends following her birth, so we weren't able to meet her until this last weekend.  She is such a quiet happy little girl and we are so glad to have her in our family!

Left to right: Phin, Reagan, Pamela holding Helen, Sheri, Ashlan, Cailan, me and Nolan.  Its all the Johnson grandkids with their moms.

Nolan and Phin playing.  This is the first time they have gotten to really "play" together and they both seemed to really enjoy it! Nolan loved following Phin around, and I think Phin loved being followed.

Below are pics from Nolan's first birthday!  We had dinner at Chuck E Cheese and Nolan seemed to have time time of his life!

Nolan is officially a cute baby . . .

It appears that Nolan is officially cute . . . we entered a picture of him in a baby photo contest recently and he was a winner! It was for a charity findraiser for the Brehon Institute and they have an 18 month calendar coming out with the winners featured (Nolan is October 2010.) We also get to walk with him in the Springtime Tallahassee parade which is coming up in March and Ryan and I got tickets to their annual charity ball. The picture that won was from our visit to the pumpkin patch in October and I think you can still see it if you scroll all the way to the bottom of the blog . . .

Here's a few new pictures, I hope everyone is doing well!

Again, Daddy is responsible for the hair

Nolan looking curious

A few new pics . . .

We're still here and haven't forgotten about posting on the blog . . . we're still staying with G until the house is done (hopefully in the next few weeks fingers crossed . . . ) so things are still a bit crazy . . . Heres a few new recent pics of Nolan . . . I hope everyone is doing good!

We're still not back in the house but (fingers crossed) I'm hoping theres a light at the end of that tunnel :) I'm just going to post some recent pics from the last month or so . . . I hope everyone is doing well and staying warm!
