Every year in July, we Hobens make our annual trek to King's Island to celebrate the boys' birthdays and let Mommy and Daddy relive their childhoods a little bit (minus the Smurfs). This year was a lot more fun than last year for both Rylee and Mommy. Last year Rylee was only about 7 weeks old and she and Mommy spent most of the day nursing in the air conditioned Baby Care Center. When she wasn't nursing, she was sleeping. But this year? Oh boy! Rylee thought King's Island was pretty stinkin' cool. Minus the 150 degree days, of course. Here is a brief look at our two day trip.
Ready to get wet!

Our Little Foodie
Time has shown us that Rylee is definitely her mother's daughter. Since she has been eating solid foods (about 8 months now), she has proven time and time again that she is not your average baby. She is culinarily refined for sure... also know as being a "food snob." Take a look:
Loves yogurt. Vanilla? Nah. Sweetened with fruit? No thanks. Plain, old whole milk yogurt.

Here she is sampling Mommy's homemade buttermilk waffles. Mmmm...
Tomato Dill Soup Mommy recreated from a favorite restaurant. She practically licked the bowl!
She liked blackberries fresh from the farmers' market... a little too much.
Not any toast will do... 100% whole wheat only please!

Skating Rinks and Swimming Pools and Fireworks, Oh My!
First of all, we apologize for our absence. Rylee has been a very busy young lady. We tried several times to post videos, but whether due to user error or blogspot boboness, we are unable to do so at this time, so here are some pictures of what Rylee has been up to so far this (HOT!) summer...
First Bats game! Yea!
