Augusta

In the last post I talked about how I took Riley on his 1st airplane ride.  You may be wondering where we went......I took him to see his favorite Aunt!!  We went to Augusta to visit Colt, Amber, and Jason!  We hadn't seen them since November....5 long months!!  I wish I had a money tree so we could go see them every month!! :)

Since these two little boys don't get to spend much time together I have more pictures than you can even imagine!  They had a lot of fun, but they also had their moments....I mean, they are only 2! 

ENJOY!!  Who knows when we will have more pictures of these cute boys together!!  :)

Riley's 1st Trip on an Airplane!

In April, I took Riley on his first trip on an airplane!  I had been thinking about doing this since last fall and finally talked myself into traveling that far with him by myself.  I am not sure why I was so worried because I know he is such a good boy.  He had so much fun seeing the airport and riding on the plane.  We even had to switch planes and ride the train in the Atlanta airport!  He got to ride on a big plane and a little plane....and he loved that!  Since Daddy didn't get to go with, I took lots of pictures!

 

Must be a little chilly!

Riley had to put his coat on to go outside this time and he thought the dogs needed their coats too.  We have coats for the dogs, but they never wear them.  I thought it was so funny when he insisted that they needed to wear theirs too!

Such a silly little boy!

My little Fireman/Cook

I might be really spoiled, but my son LOVES to play on his own.  He does have times when he wants us to play cars with him or jump on the trampoline with him (yes, this does happen!), but sometimes he will go off to another room and play by himself.  Sometimes thinking about a 2 year old playing in another room by himself might immediately make you think....TROUBLE!  And sometimes.....you're right!  But most times he is just having a great time!  This particular day I couldn't help by smile when I found him doing this.....

I JUST LOVE THIS LITTLE MAN!!

St. Patrick's Day

Just thought I would post a picture of Riley and I on St. Patrick's Day.  Another homemade shirt from Mommy!  I am not real creative....but I try!

All I could do was laugh....

With the weather getting nicer out, I am finding it is even more difficult to get work done inside the house.  Riley loves to be outside so on laundry days it can be hard to get anything done.  Once we are outside....he doesn't want to come back in!  One day we were out on the driveway drawing with some chalk.  I convinced him to go inside to change his trainer, but he wanted to take the chalk in.....ok fine, we are going to change the diaper and come right back out!  Riigght. After I changed the trainer, I remembered I needed to change the laundry too, but forgot he had the chalk. I came back to the kitchen when we were going to head back outside and this is what I found......

All I could do was laugh!  Of course I tried to be a good mom and tell him he should not color with chalk in the house.....but how could I blame him?!?  I DID let him have the chalk in the house!  :)

Outdoor Fun!

So it has been a crazy year so far.  I can't believe it is almost JUNE!  I promised earlier that I would get everyone caught up so here goes!  The first of many catching up blogs!
 
We were very spoiled in March and Riley got to spend a lot of time outside, which he loved!  One of this favorite things to do outside is play with Bailee & Dougie.  They live across the street.  Between our busy schedule and their busy schedule they don't play together very often, but when they do...look out!  :)


Enjoying the nice weather!  I can't help taking so many pictures of him playing....he makes me smile!


Helping Daddy landscape!  Riley had so much fun with this.  He hasn't really ever played in the dirt before.  He can sometimes be weird with being dirty so I wasn't sure he would like this very much, but boy did he prove me wrong!  See for yourself....

Playing on his playground.  We bought this for him last year at a garage sale and he still loves it! 

 Hope you enjoyed seeing some of what we are up to when it is nice out!
