Smile for sister Trev

Riley loves to make Trevor laugh and smile. And she's really good at getting him to do it too.
Trevor loves to watch his sisters...most of the time... that is when they're not hanging on him or right up in his face. We try to explain to Cami that brother can't see you when you're so close to him that your noses are touching. Maybe someday it will click.
Riley is such a great big sister. She loves to hold Trevor and she has loved it since the day he came home from the hospital. But now it's looking as though he's getting a little too big for it.

Bath Time

Trevor usually loves his bath but everytime I'd grab the camera to take pictures of him in the bath he would cry. So here you have pictures of a crying naked wet baby boy. I love this little lion towel. I got it as a girft at a shower and I love it. Trevor on the other hand is not too keen on the idea of putting it on after he gets out. He kind of looks a little humiliated and I can already hear him complaining of embarassment years down the line. But he looks cute now.

The End of the Ladybug Dragons



Riley had her last soccer game of the season today and she did so good.She is an awesome soccer player.At every game we've had parents come up and tell us how good she is at turning the ball around and at stealing the ball and about how fast she is. She gets it from her mom I'm sure. Their team name this year was the Ladybug Dragons because half wanted the ladybugs and the other half wanted the dragons... so they compromised. They still did good and it's been so fun watching Riley get better and better as she grasps the concept of the game. I can't wait for next fall for the next season.

Are we having a roast?...

For family night this week Riley really really wanted to roast marshmellows. She kept asking us " Are we having a roast?" So finally we told her we would and Chad went out and lit the fire. 3 burnt marshmellows, 7 broken crackers, 6 good smores and 4 smokey smelling people later... we were done.It was a good time and we all enjoyed being outside and not freezing.

Happy Mother's Day



Today was a great day. It all started with a breakfast in bed served by my beautiful girls Riley and Cami. The breakfast consisted of Pancakes with whipped cream and syrup my favorite and a glass of milk. Chad let me sleep in this morning and helped the girls make the breakfast. Then after I finished, Riley and Cami sent me on a scavanger hunt.Three clues later I found a book of art and poems by Riley that she made in her class. She was so proud of herself for setting all of that up. I guess they actually hid all the clues and book two days ago and Cami kept asking me when I was going to find my present the book. Everytime she would start to say something about it Chad and Riley would intervene and kindly remind her that it was a secret and that mom would find it on Mother's Day. It was a great day. I love my beautiful family.
After church we went to Chad's parent's house. Here's Cami enjoying a creamy with Grandma King. We love going over to Grandma's and Grandpa's on Sunday afternoons. It's so much fun to live close to family.
Riley loves to play sports. Today she played basketball while eating her creamy. She's getting better at dribbling. We've got big plans for her.She's such a good girl.
What pretty girls!! Cami of course has more ice cream on her face then anywhere else. She doesn't care though she's having a great time. They played with their cousins today and had lots of fun.We missed all of you who weren't able to be there with us today. We wish we all lived closer so we could see everyone more often.We love you all.

Family Pictures

We got our family pictures taken again so that we could have Trevor in them. I think they turned out alright. All of us were smiling... except for T-man of course.It wasn't too bad of an experiance either. I was pleasantly surprised with how smooth everything went.I had to buy this picture only because of the cheesey grin on Cami's face. She's such a ham. I love it though. What cute kids I've been blessed with.

HAPPY CINCO DE MAYO


Happy Cinco De Mayo

We had a FIESTA for Cinco De Mayo. We had our good friends over...Sam and Jen Robertson... and their kids. It was a blast and we got a little goofy with the sombreros . We thought we were so cool and clever to come up with the bottled root beer for the cerveza affect. We had fun and it was a really nice day. Who could ask for a better weather for a fiesta.

Wake Boarding

My brother Jeff took us out on his boat when we went to California this past week. We went wake boarding and it was a BLAST!!! I had never ever been pulled behind a boat before and I was scared. But now I have every intention of doing that every time I go to Cali to visit. Thanks Jeff!!!

Summer's Comin

We finally had a day that it was warm enough to turn the sprinklers on and run through them and have a cool tastey treat too. Riley and Cami had a lot of fun.

Trevor's Blessing Day



We had Trevor blessed on Sunday and he looked so handsome. Chad gave him a very nice blessing and Trevor didn't make a peep the whole time. Some of my family were even able to come up for it.
