Miley Miley Miley Miley Miley

The first pic is of Miley in the costume Riley wore his 2nd Halloween. Too Too Cute! The second is the costume I bought for her to wear this year at Walmart, which was way too small. I couldn't even get it snapped around her little legs. It didn't matter anyway - SHE HATED IT! But Mommy thought it was just adorable.

Miley got all decked out in ribbon for bubby's birthday but she was so mad at Mommy for putting her hair in pigtails. Again, Mommy thought is was irresistible.

The next pic is Miley getting ready for church one Sunday morning. She is such a little doll. I thought she looked a little too grown up in the denim.

Mommy got a hair cut! Miley wasn't too thrilled about this but has adapted. It's not as easy for her to pull out now.

She is taking steps and clapping, talking non-stop, and keeping us laughing. Oh My Gosh, I can't imagine life without her. She is such a blessing to our family.




Soccer Season Begins - AGAIN!




Riley was so excited to play soccer again. Last season we only got to play 3 games because of the rain. This season looks much more promising. He's already learned so much. Apparently City Stars were short on coaches and in order for Riley and Olivia to get to play, Kim and I ended up coaching their team. I know diddly squat about soccer but I'm learning as we go. Kim has coached before so she's in charge! I have to admit it's been pretty fun and I know Riley enjoys me being out there with him. He is also very excited that he gets to play on the same team as 2 of his closest friends, Olivia and Emma. Go Blue Birds!

Riley Turns 6










My baby boy turned 6 on September 13th. Both sides of the family and Riley's best friend ,Olivia, met at Chuck E. Cheese on Saturday night for pizza and games (and cake & presents of course). We all had a great time and closed the store down. Even Curtis's Dad got in on the action. All Riley's LITTLE cousins (Bryton, Talon & Emma) were there along with little sis, Miley.

Olivia Lee

This is my Best Friends daughter, Olivia. She is a clothes fanatic. There is no limit to this little girls closet. She loves to "pose" for the camera each time she puts on a new masterpiece. Of course, she's always adorable and each outfit has it's matching shoes and hair accessories. She will be a fashion consultant for Miley throughout the coming years.

Rainy Days & HOMEWORK!!!!




Riley was so excited it was raining today because he wanted to use his ducky umbrella. He didn't think he needed to take his raincoat since he had his umbrella but I won that arguement.



HOMEWORK - IN KINDERGARTEN, come on!
Riley has had some sort of homework everyday since school started. This poster was suppose to be done over our holiday break - but MOMMY forgot, oops! Anyway, we got it done last night and it's so cute. Riley did a great job on it.

He had to cut out pictures from magazine of things he liked and disliked. I was a little surprised at some of the things he came up with.

Things Riley Likes: Candy Bars, Gummy Worms, Baseball Trophy and Baseball (for Baseball), Dad, Mom & Baby (for his family), a dog, Scooby Doo & a Book (Riley has always had a fascination with books).

Things Riley Doesn't Like: Toothbrush (He doesn't like to brush his teeth), Cleaning Supplies (He doesn't like to clean, especially the bathroom so he cut out a picture of toilet bowl cleaner), Medicine (because he doesn't like being sick), purses (because he hates to hold Mommy's for her), green peppers, coloring book (because he doesn't like to color).
I THOUGHT MOST OF THESE WERE PRETTY CREATIVE!

If he could make 3 wishes what would they be:
1. To drive a race car
2. To eat gummy bears anytime he wanted to
3. To be able to buy anything he wanted

He had to draw a picture of his family and a picture of what he wanted to be when he grows up: He of course chose a race car driver. Drawing this one puzzled him so I gave him some stickers to help make part of his picture. This is too cute, you have to click on the poster and see this one for yourself.

We also had to weigh and measure: Riley is 49" tall and 65lb. He has brown hair and blue eyes and is 5 years old. Great Job!
