I’m so proud of Nastia and Shawn for winning gold and silver in the Individual All- Around on Friday night. I watched with tears in my eyes and was so happy [...]
Kylie and I FINALLY went to Abilene to see The Beards. I mean, they have only been gone for almost three years. What was the rush? :) We have really missed them so much and can’t believe that we hadn’t gone before now. We had such a great time and [...]
Last week and weekend were great! Kylie went to music camp all week at my parents church. She spent the night and stayed with them through the week except to come back for piano lessons [...]
Today was Kylie’s first day of Piano Lessons. She was so excited to meet Mrs. Mary. I had to hear all of her questions: “What does she look like? Is she black or [...]
Happy 7th Birthday sweet child o’ mine! I can’t believe that my spunky little girl is a little closer to double digits. We had a great swimming party for her at Uncle Jeffy and Aunt Kyri’s but we forgot to bring the camera. That’s what happens when they turn 7. [...]
We had a really busy weekend! Keith and Nancy came in for Kylie’s birthday since they couldn’t come last weekend. Aunt Melba had emergency heart surgery and they went up to Bentonville to [...]
Blame Apple and the new IPhone G3 for this big fiasco! My blog comments aren’t working and one day my email was MISSING!! I had to use their silly hotmail version that they boast is so wonderful with the new IPhone......AND I DON’T EVEN HAVE AN IPHONE!!!
We have been so busy this summer! I feel like I am constantly on the computer yet I can’t seem to fit my blog in. I have some spare time tonight, so I’m gonna go for it. It’s 8:30 and the kids have had a bath and have been put [...]
The fever has hit! This weekend the Women’s Gymnastic Olympic Trials was on and I could not have been happier! I get so excited every four years when they are picking the team to go to the Olympics. This year, the group to decide between is fierce! All of these [...]
Friday was Kylie’s Field Day at her school and she already can’t wait until next year’s field day. She had so much fun and I’m so glad that she finally agreed that I could come and take pictures! I got there just in time to see all the water fun. [...]
It’s almost been a month since I have written about my sweet kids!! I have been super-busy and I can only imagine how fast this summer is going to fly by. The kids are doing great and we have some really good news about Riley. He is almost totally completely [...]
I have so much to record yet no time to do it! Lately, Riley has been owning me something fierce. For the past two weeks, he has been all about, “Mommy, Mommy, Mommy” and I LOVE IT!!! For so long, I have waited for him to call me and now [...]
I’ve been tagged by Courtney. She’s one of the funniest people that I have never met. We talk to each other via blogs and I have a feeling that if I ever meet her in person, she is someone that I would be friends with for life!!
This is the last full week of Early CLASS. Riley will be going to the summer program (Yea! The first summer he has ever been in school!) but we are going to lose a lot of his friends and my friends, too. I have spent most every week day since [...]
You gotta love Jenny! She gets to the bottom of what everyone else is hiding. I have learned so much from her and also from other mothers who have sons that are recovering (not cured!!) and are doing great. I was having a really hard time with things a while [...]
In a weird ironic twist of events, something happened to me today that I told Kylie with a sarcastic laugh and a grin, “That just won’t happen, honey. Get over it!” I am going on the record and saying that I am wrong and I will treat Kylie’s feelings with [...]
This week it’s just me and Riles. Yep, Alan and Kylie are gone on a holiday (that’s for you, Steph and Amy!) to Washington D.C. to help Aunt Essie move. They flew to Little Rock on Saturday morning. It was Kylie’s first flight and she was a little nervous that [...]
Today is World Autism Awareness Day. If you know someone who has a son or daughter with autism, please give them a hug today. Chances are they will need it!
