Our New Pet(s)

We had a jam packed weekend.  It seems like we did 100 things.  Thursday, Kayla came over with this little four wheeler.  If you don't have one of these for your little boys, go get one.  You push the power button with your thumb and off you go.  Ryder was grinning ear to ear driving this all over the driveway.

Thursday night a few friends and us went to Birmingham for a Ryan Bingham show.

Friday, John Michael worked on getting our little fish pond in the back yard running again.  Ryder wanted to help.

Saturday morning we went to the children's festival in Fondren.  Ryder got a balloon and before we could walk away he dragged it on the grass and it popped.  I screamed.  I do not like it when something is loud and it scares me.

John Michael was by far the oldest one going down this slide.  But how can you say no to Ryder?

We played bean bag toss

And some sort of duckie game.  Ryder was screaming DUCK DUCK DUCK

Then JM got conned into going down another kids only slide.  When they got to the top this little girl was too scared to go down by herself.  JM to the rescue.

Next stop, Keiffers.

On our way home, we stopped by Papa and Becca's house and went to the park to swing and slide.

During our drive home, we were in a deep conversation and kept hearing Ryder say "Bob, Bob, Bob", but just figured he was talking to the tv screen because he was watching Bob the Builder in the back seat.  We didn't even bother turning around because he always says Bob while watching it.  Then it turned into BOBBBB BOBBBBBBBB so JM looked in the rear view mirror...

Saturday night we went to Brooke's wedding shower.  Ryder helped open.

As you could see, Saturday was a long day.  So Sunday Ryder didn't wake up until 8:00, and based on the picture below, you can see he wasn't too thrilled with being woken up for church.

His cheerio's cheered him up.  He's all of a sudden obsessed with cheerio's.  Or Chee-O's.  CHEE-O, CHEE-O!!!!!!

Continuing our day on Sunday, we stopped at Belk so I could get a shower gift.  We forgot our stroller.

Next stop was PetSmart.  The pond clean-out was a success, and we are now the proud parents of seven new goldfish. Ryder is loving his new pet FEEESH, FEEEEEESH.

It was a loooooooooong weekend.  But a FUN one!
