Servied with choc and strawberry milk. We had them all use there may I and Please can I. It was great fun. And the girls mine and the others loved it.

Good times

Valentines was GREAT. Adam got home from work on Sat night and then we headed out to a dance for church it was fun we hadnt dance in a few years. Then in the morning I made heart shape pancakes and gave Adam a feke gift. After I was done eating I snuk into the garage and called Adam for help. When he can in expecting to find me trapped by boxes and in destess he found a perfectly cleaned and finshed garage including a peg board for his tool that he had always wanted. He was SO Suprised. It was wonderful.

Ryder has been so fun. He loves to climb and would climb to the moon if he could he just doesnt like coming down so he gets stuck.
He loves playing peek a boo and were but behind moms couch is a fav

I love it when he will just lay down on the ground and relax for a minute and then hes back up running it took me a long time to get a picture of him doing it


We also let go of a dear friend to him his pacie but really he did really good about it and now starting this week he is sleeping in his bed all night and that is WONDERFUL.
