This week the commissary had a Shrek display where you could pose as Shrek, and luckily I had the camera with me! Riley did not want to be Shrek, but he did pet the donkey per his weekly routine so I 
was able to capture that! All 3 of my boys walked out hand in hand too :)
Riley had a little surprise for him inside the box too!! A cute book about counting in an animal house!!
The box from Papa & Mimi came today with Andrew's birthday presents in it!! He now has the complete saga of Lego Star Wars, a new Optimus Prime transformer, a bug catching kit, a glow pen workbook, and some Pez!! 
So I decided Andrew was indeed ready for low-back booster seat now that he is 5 years old; here he is! He has the back row of the van all to himself too!
Andrew challenged Daddy to a water fight this afternoon...and of course Riley joined in as well!
I almost threw Riley's money out with the wrapping paper, but luckily Gramma reminded me to look for it, so thanks Gramma!! Although he didn't seem too interested in the cash this morning (he may be the first child in history to refuse money) I am sure he will be thankful for what it can buy him!!
Tonight was Riley's first night in the blanket fort tradition; usually it is just Andrew, Mommy, and Daddy because Riley has always gone to bed so much earlier and really likes sleeping in his own bed, but this time we decided to see how he would do!! Here they both are winding down for bedtime in the fort!
We had never played on their playground before because we are usually busy with our own sand toys and the beach of course, but today we decided to give it a try!!
