Happy Tutu Mama!

What a fun, beautiful week (when it wasn't raining!)! Riley still loves gymnastics and has now begun soccer as well. Soccer did not start off on exactly the right foot, but by the end of practice, things were looking up and we are all looking forward to next week. Kyle is quickly approaching 2 and is really starting to find his true personality! He now has opinions on what shirt he is wearing and normally insists that the shirt he wears must be orange and also has certain shoes that are his favorites - names an old ugly pair of lime green flip flops (and with this kids left feet, flip flops could make him lose a tooth!)! They are currently hid in the laundry room... out of sight, out of mind!

The weekend was perfect and we spent it outside as much as possible. Friday's playgroup was at Crump park for lots of running around and lunch with the geese. Friday night we met Bebe, Aunt Darcy, and Lexa at Toys-r-us so that Kyle could pick out his own birthday gift from Bebe. He instantly fell in love with a toy STOP sign that is about his height. Bebe couldn't resist and purchased the sign, a new helmet, and a very exciting t-ball set for Kyle and beautiful barbies for both girls! Thank you Bebe - the kids are thrilled with all their goodies! After the toy store, we headed out for a delicious birthday dinner in celebration of Tracy's 34th birthday.

Saturday began with a 10 mile walk for Tracy and then the entire family was off to soccer and then Kings Dominion with the Umsteads. What a fun day! The kids plowed through naps and we all had a great time! The weather was perfect and we are all looking forward to many fun days at KD this summer!

The kids first look at Kings Dominion this year

I'm not sure Tracy or Darcy will be riding that one again!

Best Buddies in shades!
They both fell asleep about 5 minutes before we got home - There was no waking Kyle!

Riley woke up after about a half hour on the couch.

Sunday lunch out on the deck.
