new words

Sometimes I forget whatever I say riley hears, and repeats. A few days ago, he wanted chips so I asked him 2 get a bowl to put them in he said.. mommy your ridiculous!!... I laughed so hard what a big word for such a little man. Another funny thing he said. We were on vacation. Riding in the rental van, I was tired so I laid my head on his car seat .. he lifted my said and said, no sleeeping mommy, I said but I'm so tired, he started 2 cry and said, but its a sunny day... now he says. Now he says that even in the morning when I am dying 2 get just a little more sleep, don't sleep mommy its a sunny day. :) he is growing up 2 be such a cool kid! Even when he has an attitude!

A Little Mini Me

As I was watching grey's the other day.. I looked over at Riley and noticed something.. quite familiar..

Me... Its just what I do.. eat panda.. and play on the computer.. or work, or school stuff, but still Its kinda crazy.. How.. our kids learn everything they know.. from us.. WEIRD!
& he has my talent too! he can pick up things with his toes :) and I am teaching him to pinch with them :)

Who's watching the kid!!?

Since mike gets up for work everyday at 430am,, on his days off he still wakes up early.. goes in the living room and usually goes back to bed.. We thursdays are his day off, and my day to sleep carefree!! :) We this thursday, I woke up.. Mike and Riley were both in the living room, so I settled in for a few more hours of carefee sleep.. The kind of sleep you get when you know your kid is ok,. the kind of sleep I had before I had a kid.. I woke up in a panic.. looked at the clock! It was 230!!.. holy crap why did he let me sleep so long, I had to leave for work in 30 mins! I came out and noticed my dedicated husband.. sleeping on the couch, and the child was outside, in only a diaper swinging.. he had red stuff all over his face.. I didnt give it to much thought, until I discovered the 2 strawberry containers on the floor in the kitchen.. each strawberry had one giant bite taken out of it..
Out of 2 containers he managed to miss 8.. just 8 useable ones left.
Oh well.. next time I will make sure to tell mike NOT to sleep while I am carefree sleeping.. & at least they were strawberries, and not like a container of icing or something.

Those Little Mommy Moments

This blog was inspired by Oprah :) I saw her show on mothers today, and their dirty little secrets.. Through the entire show I was laughing, and thinking.. yeah. I've done that! I think sometimes we try so hard to be perfect! and NORMAL! I find myself comparing myself all the time to my friends and things they do. So I thought, was a great place to be honest, and share the crazy things that happen everyday. I'm not sure how many people will fin interest in this, but I think it will be a great blog book when I put everything together.


Riley.. who is mostly the reason I blog.. him and for myself :) He is nearly 3 years old, and the most randon things are coming out of his mouth! I am excited to share them with you.


yesterday.. he walked out of his play room, with the saddest little face, and went up to michael... He said.. Riley's house is Boring!, Boring.. Boring!! do you know how many toys you have kid!? and where did he learn that word?..
Please feel free to share your stories here in the comments :)


So no matter what crazy things I let my child do, or.. the dumb.. Hold crap! things I do as a mom, its nice to share them, and to know.. that with a busy schedule, and a hectic life.. We are not alone :) We all have those days.. those little mommy moments.
