Thanks Nani & Bumpa













We got some goodies in the mail today from Nani & Bumpa!! Riley is happily playing with his new Bounce Back Racer and loving that he can bump into walls too!! They also sent the boys some superhero gear! I had to snap the first picture quick because Riley kept slipping the mask off, but Andrew was more than happy to model them both again!!

Wet & Wacky Ice Cream Social

The Hearts Apart committee here on base put together this little event for the deployed families. It was a great time and since Cathy's daddy is also deployed they were able to come as well!! The boys had a blast getting wet, playing on the playground, having ice cream sundaes, and even playing Bingo!!

Relaxing

Riley had a late nap today, so he is still awake; but at least they are relaxing together, not running around like monkeys, haha

Buried Andrew

Andrew loved the beach so much that he keeps asking me to bury him in the 'sand' (he has decided that his blankets can serve as a temporary sand)

Thirsty?

Riley decided my water was a great place to make his lunch concoction; YUM YUM!!

Rain Rain...





















We have been getting a lot of rain lately, but that doesn't keep us down!! I am loving being a mom of two boys with all this water play; and YES I am wearing Adam's hat!!

Proof?...?

Since apparently they have moved from a monkey phase to a frog phase (however temporary!) I told Andrew his new nickname can be Fronkey and Riley can be Moggy; haha

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland


We went to see a play tonight at the Community Center; each year the kids' acting class puts it on and it always turns out very cute!! The little girl in the red dress was my favorite; and I think the rest of the audience liked her as well!!

Froggy

Sometimes I am not sure what kind of species I am raising around here; I call Riley "Monkey" and I may have to start calling Andrew "Froggy"
