See any similarity??? :)
My mom bought this for Horsie . . . she thought, sans the fangs, that it looks like his cute little head!
"Yes! Our plan worked! I knew if we were complete MONSTERS during dinner that they'd give us suckers to shut us up!"
"Cheers to a job well done, sis!"
"Aaahhhhh . . . a yummy moment of cheery-flavored bliss"
Taylor, double-fisting
My mom and I needed a 15-minute break after a hellish dinner out with the kids while Charlie was in Seattle, so we let the kids enjoy their suckers all the way down to the sticks! The staff was probably thinking "Get the HELL out of here with those BRATS!" They may look cute and happy here, but I don't have pre-sucker pictures . . . you'll have to take my word for it . . . it wasn't pretty . . . that's why there aren't pictures of the adults.
October 2008
Tadda (that's Horsie's current nickname for Taylor, it's catchy, eh?) loves to go lay by Herkie on his bed in their room
Taylor was tired and I couldn't get her to smile in this adorable MU cheerleading outfit, but I had to get a shot, even if she wasn't smiling!
And here is Horsie, the same day, in his MU football jersey that FINALLY fits him! He got it from "Ant Brooke" when he was just a newborn and I couldn't WAIT for him to wear it! Here he is playing soccer at the Hormberg's.
Yummy spaghetti dinner for Anna's 16th birthday!!! Horsie LOVES to play with his cousins Will and Joey! (And they are SO SWEET to him too! It melts my heart!)
I guess he takes after me . . . Afterall, I did win the school spelling bee in 5th grade! :)
What's new with us??? Well . . .
We brought ALL of our bottles to the "hos-i-bal" to "give 'em to the babies who NEED 'em."
It was a sad day at the Ries home. (Actually, Horsie, our resident humanitarian, was more excited about telling everyone the story about how he, now the big boy, brought his bottles to the babies at the hospital. But poor little Totty, who is too young to understand, had a few rough days . . . well, rough for her, but she is a Libra, so it wasn't too bad for me . . . she is pretty easy.)
Daddy built the kids a sandbox in our backyard . . . they love it! He filled it with 16 bags of sand . . . Ries sandboxes run deep.
We have the biggest pumpkin in the neighborhood
Taylor is walking . . . she took her first steps by herself on Daddy's birthday (Aug. 17), but wouldn't let go of our hands really until the day after her first birthday, even though she had been able to walk for over a month. I guess she realized she was a big girl and didn't need our finger anymore!
We are all going to be pirates for Halloween . . . this was taken last weekend at Boo at the Zoo . . . it was fun. I made this hat that Taylor is wearing into a headband though. It covered all of her hair and Charlie didn't like it . . . it's much cuter now!
