Cute pics..







We went to a wedding today at Rockome Gardens in Arcola. It was pretty fun to see Riley running around being cute as can be, but we were all so tired by the end of the night! Riley didnt get to nap at all, And was so tired when we got home around ten....

Tomorrow is my last day off work! I am gearing myself up to wake up on MOnday. I am getting excited to go back, but I am going to miss these kids like crazy...

Alright, its late, I'm tired. I still have some more pics to upload, and will hopefully do that tomorrow...

Cutest Kids... Ever

I am so happy I got these pics of Chase smiling!

















And of course Riley, in all her glory, doing what she does best.....






We had a laid back day today. Sent out birthday invites, washed laundry, scrapbooked, and that was about the extent of it. It was nice to be calm though! I am looking foward to going back to work still, but as the time gets closer, I get more and more worried how I will cram my day into a four hour time span between getting home and going to bed! At least Riley still goes down pretty early, so that is helpful. And one of my friends pointed out that we wont be here through the day anymore, which will cut down on the mess.

Scott and Julie's wedding is this weekend, and the kids will be decked out in camoflauge! I think that it will be really cute to see the girls together in their matching dresses, and little Chase in camo overalls! What cute kids we all have!

Ordered a new book from Amazon today... Jodi Picoult (again). The book is called 19 minutes. I really recommend her books to read if you have not yet. This is coming from someone who doesnt stray from what she likes and knows. I have read Harvesting the Heart, Salem Falls, and Plain Truth. Loved them all. I just started picture perfect, and will get it done by the time the next book arrives! I even paid extra for shipping so that it will be here Friday! This book is about a school shooting in a small town. There was an exerpt in the end of one of the last books I read, that left me dying to read this one (the nineteen minutes one).

Well I think that I should get some scrapping done while its quiet. Derrick just called and is running errands in town before he comes home, so I have about another 45 minutes to myself... Riley is already in bed, and Chase is sleeping in his swing....

Multi-Tasking

Okay. So. I am uploading new pics of my memory card as I type, and will post them tonight. I am also finishing Riley's birthday invitations. There is just so much going on this month, we decided to actually do her party on her birthday night. We know that there will be people who wont be able to come cause of the drive and what not, but we figured we would give it a shot. I have finished picking up all her presents, and all the decorations, and I ordered her cake today. We are good to go. A week from tomorrow, my little girl will be two! Where does the time go? It seems like just yesterday I was giving her bottles and watching her try to roll over. I hope that Chase doesnt grow up that fast! He is already big enough!

Chase slept really well last night. Besides needing a pacifier through the night, he is really doing well! We started cereal in the bottle at night only, at about six weeks. It was like he wasnt getting enough at all from the formula, and the cereal seems to help keep his little belly full! He is smiling on his own now. Its about the cutest thing ever. There is nothing sweeter that a cute gummy baby smile!

I have been working away on my Christmas project, and am about half done. I am hoping that I can finish this week, as I know it will be crazy when I go back to work! I go back on Monday, and although I am looking foward to adult conversation, I am going to miss these two something severe! I am lucky that I am taking a day off every other week, so the kids will never be in daycare more than three days a week, and I can have a chance to try to keep up with things around here!

I left the kids with Derrick today so I could head into town for a doctors appointment, and do some last minute shopping. I stopped by the Childrens place, and did some damage. I got the little ones some cute little outfits, and I bought their Halloween costumes. They are both being little duckies. The outfits are so cute. We tried them on the kids already. Chase's little hat is so big, but it looks adorable!

Chases pictures are up online now too..... www.photographicsgallery.net They are so rotten cute! I ordered a big one of Riley kissing Chase. I think that it will look perfect on the wall here in the new room! Now I just have to find a frame! I did manage to get a ton of frames today for 50% off at Hobby Lobby. NOw I just need to get pictures in them and get Derrick to hang them!

Well... I am going to post these pics in a new post, and head to bed...
