Ryker's booboo

Ryker fell at a football game and whacked his little chin on some metal. The boys went to the high school powder puff football game with a friend and while they were off playing Ryker got hurt. I was home cleaning and my phone rang.

I hear porter on the other end completely panicked.

P: MOM!! Ryker is bleeding..

me: " ok, Ryker is bleeding, How bad? does he need a band aide?"

P: Yes!!! a HUGE one. he fell and whacked his head on metal. he is bleeding all over.

me: I will leave right now and i will bring a band aide.

P: oh and mom (totally calm now) will you bring tape?

me: I will be right there.

When I got to the game Ryker was fine

sitting with my friend

with a big blue band aide on his

little chinny chin chin.

He has healed really fast thank goodness.

I have since said that I am thankful for the

HUGE first aid kit that I have in the closet.

It seems lately that I will be needing that a lot!

Porter Crashes

Poor Porter!

We were on our way to church and he was riding his bike when he left the garage I knew he was going to crash. I am so glad that he had a helmet on. His helmet has deep scratches all along the right side, his shirt was shredded, and his pants got some road rash too. His little elbow took the brunt because there was nothing there to protect it.

It makes me hurt.

he said that when he got down the hill he was just going to fast, and his handle bars turned really fast and he flipped over them and landed in our neighbors flowers.

Ykee turns 4!!!

His favorite present...

his new monkey pillow pet.

Ryker was so excited to turn 4 this year.

It is a pretty good thing too because we had lots of parties!

We celebrated with family for Ryker and Olive at the park in the middle of their birthdays, then Brian and I hosted a few more days of parties so it was a running countdown everyday I made a new cake with "how many more days til rykers birthday" It was pretty cute. He loved it. I also broke down and let Ryker have friends over for a little party in the middle of the day. We had a little water party, with a home made slip and slide, on the hill. Filled up the pool, and lowered the tramp for the little kids they had a blast.

did I fail as a parent???

Ryker was playing in the living room

he lets out the biggest loudest toot ever and he gets a real sheepish grin on his face and says, "that's my air conditioning."

I thought I was going to die!

a little while later...

Porter is laying in bed

informs Ryker that Fast Sunday is when you hurry really fast at church so you can get home to watch football.
