We have been very BUSY BEEs !!!!

It's been a couple of weeks since I was able to blog, not that we haven't been doing anything around here....simply because things just won't slow down!!! First of all, we are preparing for Riley's first dance recital! It seems that I am reliving my childhood....its just such a blessing that I get to watch her enjoy something that used to be such a big part of my life. We took dance pictures and actually put " a little" makeup on her. It was the first time we every did that....and she was soooo excited! It was the cutest little thing I ever saw! I love that babygirl soooo much! We can't wait for her to ( or not to) perform on the big stage!!! She sure looks like an angel though!

Mr Gavin has been teething pretty bad lately. He is now cutting 3 of his molars, so he is just not having the best of days! He has his moments where he is super happy....then he gets really whiny! Thats ok...just more for mommy to love! He is getting sooo big. His new thing is to run and climb on the fireplace and it sound like he is preaching. He will do this for an hour! He loves to yell, "JUMP" out of no where...except i don't think he understands the defference between JUMP and BOUNCE. lol. He is very verbal, however, I think he likes to speak in Chinese! He's a HAM!

I on the other hand have been getting creative making Riley some new hairbows. I really enjoy making them! It's pretty fun! Here are my first ones! Also we have finished redoing Mr Glenn's china cabinet he made to match our house. We ended up using it as two separte pieces instead of the china cabinet. It came out pretty good considering how much work it was....NEVER AGAIN!

And our landscaping is about 80% done....I'm too exhausted to even take pictures of it though! =)

Snowballs and Playin in the Park!

Today was a great day for us! Riley started "wetting the bed" so we are trying the positive reinforcement and praising her for when she doesn't have an accident....well she did NOT have an accident lastnight! She is SOOOO excited when she woke up because she would get a snowball after daycare =) So, of course I got her favorite "pink bubblegum" and Gavin and I went to pick her up at daycare! I suprised her with a visit to the park and we had a good time! The sound of their laughter while swinging is pure joy. I don't think there is a better sound. Chris is working nights so he didn't get to join us....but he promised when he is off we will do it again! She even went to bed early tonight....so we can "try it again". She requests a purple snowball tomm.

Just another Saturday!

Nothing too excited has been going on in the Pourciau household. We did get to go to Marksville on Thursday and bought lots and lots of plants to landscape around the house! Hopefully our dirt will be delievered on Monday and we can start! Just all the colors and greenry around the house makes it feel so much more cozy!! I can't wait until we are done! We took the kids to Kite Fest this afternoon and Riley of course had a blast flying her little kite she made! Gavin on the other hand, wasn't about all the heat! He did enjoy watching all the kites and kids running around! He is growing so fast. He is starting to repeat words and it just is freaking me out! It seems like we just snapped our fingers and BAM, he's growing up! Riley is such a little lady now....and def. lets us know she is not a baby! Can we just stop time for a little while, please?!?!?!
