3 Joys...

2. My kids laughs. I love hearing it. Its the best sound to wake up to.

3. My Family and Friends.


3 Fears


1. Heights... HATE THEM!!!!!!

2. Something bad happening to my family. I don't like when Robert is out of town because then my mind goes crazy. I have crazy dreams about what or how I would get all three of my kids out of a burning house. I know psycho.

3.Not doing enough with my kids and teaching them all the things they need and I want them to know.

3 Random/ Surprising Facts

1. I love clothes but I hate getting dressed in the morning. If I could get away with it I would be a 3 yr old in her favorite outfit every time I left the house. As that is the one that makes me feel pretty and young.

2. I have to make my bed everyday. And yes my husband thinks I am OCD. As if it didn't get made in the morning and I am going to bed I will make it before getting in to sleep.

3. I hate spending money on myself I always feel guilty after...

Robert says to put down that I never moved when I was a kid I was born and grew up and my parents still live in the same house...

Swimming Lessons

So Riley started swimming lessons last Tuesday and HATED it. Would cry and cry the whole 30mins. Ok no she isnt new to the water and no she doesn't hate swimming she actually loves it. Being told what to do in the water, however, is another thing. All she is being told to do is to put her face into that water, and when she does she just screams. So we just finished the first week and I actually got a smile in a couple of these pictures we took on Thursday. Robert said that on Friday she was actually swimming back to the wall. I was shocked! Was this the same girl I had taken to the pool on Tuesday only to have scratch marks all over my arms and neck because she was afraid I would let go of her; or the girl on Wednesday that cried so much after having to go under the water all the way that she ended up throwing up on the side of the pool? Thank you Bleach! Wow how much the difference a day can make.



Note from the husband: Please don't look at the pasty white man in the pictures. The purpose of the photos is to see Riley, not to be blinded by her fathers white body.

And the winner is..........

NIKKI!!!!

Happy Birthday Brody!!







So today was Brody's 3rd Birthday and it was a great busy day. We got up early so we could get Riley to her reading class and then we ran to the store and got a few things for our trip to the pool. And then were off to pick Riley up which is Brody's favorite as he gets to play on the playground outside until she is ready.

Then we headed home and got our swim stuff on and the cooler stuffed with goodies and out the door we went to Kelden's house to get him and his mommy to go to the pool. And we played and splashed and had a picnic lunch at the pool we where there for 3 hours it was great.

Then we got to go to dinner at Brody's favorite pizza place and came home and ate his race car cake. I found the idea on the Internet one day after asking him what kind of car do you want. I think it turned out cute and yummy. What do you think? Thanks to everyone who help make Brody's birthday such a special one.....

Brody
