The few more I promised!

For Grandmas

These are specifically for Grandma and Great Grandma... If you have fun with it too, then even better.  Also, if anyone else has any specific requests, let me know!  These were all I could load for now.  A few more will be up a little later.

New Bike

Adyson is getting taller and taller.  Suzie just realized it this morning while at Caribou with the children.  She's almost as tall as Keegan, and she wasn't just a couple months ago.  This could also mean that Keegan is shrinking, we aren't sure.  So for now we will assume that it's Adyson that is growing.  Because of this growth, a 12 inch tire bike will work no longer.  

We made an adventure out of getting this new bike.  We went to Einstein Bagels for lunch first.  I met Robyn and Bethany there, and between all of us nannies we had 5 kids with us.  It was a great lunch!  The manager came to the table and said that he had never seen such a wonderful group of children enjoying themselves, and with great manners.  With that he gave everyone of us a free lunch coupon.  It was very exciting, at least for us nannies!  This means that we will be back there soon, AND that manners do matter :o)   After that we went next door to Toys-R-Us and tested a couple of bikes.  There was a purple and blue Schwinn that caught Adyson's eye, and the rest was history.  She's doing a great job on it, and hopefully by the end of the summer she'll be comfortable enough to take off the training wheels... we'll see.

Finally!

I know that many of you (my mom, because she's probably the only one reading this) have been waiting for a very long time to see us have something like this.  I figure if I'm on here reading my friends blogs all the time, I might as well have one.  

You may be asking, "Why title your site 'The Fitzgerald'?"... This is a great question.  I titled it that because I didn't want to limit the happenings or posts to just me or a various Ryner girl.  I want this to be more than that.  There are 5 of us living in this house, and I think it would be great if we all share from time to time.  

The Fitzgerald is what we have so lovingly named this house.  It happens to be the last name of the previous owners.  We never got around to taking their personalized knocker off of the door.  After a year we decided it just belongs there, and so gave it a special meaning to us.  Although we have never had the pleasure of meeting the Fitzgerald's we think of them often.  Like when we receive mail for them everyday even when we have told the post office and our mailman that they don't live here anymore, or when there's a problem with the house and we find that whatever it is, is being held together by duct tape.  I'm a fan of duct tape, but I've learned that you should not use it to hold your house together.  I'll post more on that fascinating topic later.  Well this is the first of many, and I hope that you enjoy!
