What?....

Jett and Riley went to parent teacher conference last night and I have been irritated ever since, what do you think? He has always done really well in math but the teacher says he is falling behind so Jett proceeds to tell her how we have been doing his homework and obviously we are way off. This is the way Riley is being taught to do subtraction and addition problems...the only word I can find right now is WHAT?

Just so you know this is what the teacher wrote out on the back of the paper, I am not making it up.

The letter...

So Riley comes home from school yesterday and tells me he wrote Jett and I a letter but the catch is we can't read it until we are together. Jett comes home and we open it to find this, as we read it we were cracking up. He keeps pleading with us for a cell phone and even tries to talk my Mom, Dad and sister into changing our minds. Sorry buddy but you are only 8, but we sure love you!

Riley's special day!

On the 28th we had a big event in our home, Riley was baptized. It was such a great day and everything went so well. He had asked Jett and I to give the talks and wanted Kalli and Ava to sing. However, we did hit a minor snag for a moment he broke his arm on Wednesday playing soccer at school but lucky for us they now do water-proof casts, yay!
I can't believe how quickly 8 years has flown by,it makes me sad but at the same time it is so much fun to watch him grow and develop we could not be any more proud of our Riley he is such a wonderful boy in every way.

4 months old

Our sweet, Kamryn is four months old today. She is just becoming so much fun!

Here are just a few things she is doing at her ripe, old age:

1. She is constantly smiling.
2. Grabbing at everything.
3. Loves her Mommy (my favorite:)
4. Taking down 8 oz. of formula (which explains the chubby cheeks)
5. She is in love with her Daddy, the second she hears his voice she instantly gets excited.
6. Let's Riley carry her all over the house.
7. Loves when Kalli sings her "Put your hands on the Future" song (Amy you will understand that one)
8. Learning to hold onto her toys
9. She hates her tummy
10. No kidding this baby wants to sit up (or she is working on her ab muscles?)

We just love her so much and enoy having a baby bless our home again.

Riley's smile...

Well today our Riley went and got his long awaited "expander" and a few braces. He was so nervous but that was quickly put aside when Dr. Taylor explained that it would not hurt and they don't have a single shot in their office. If you are looking for an orthodontist let me know we found the greatest and he has such a great office staff, we just love them. Thanks to Dr. Taylor we are on our way to a new and improved smile for our Riley. You were so brave buddy!!
