My 1st day of School!

Riley started his 1st day of school and he did great! I wanted to get him started on his own "big boy" routine before his little sister arrives so he is going on Tuesday and Thursday mornings for about 4 hours. When we got there he went into his classroom and was so happy to see that our neighbor Andrew is also in his class! He went straight over to the table with all the cars and Paul and I said goodbye. We were relieved that on our way out the door there was not a tear or complaint from him, actually I don't think he even noticed that we left :( I on the other hand am missing my buddy and probably going to drive by while they are outside playing to spy on him.

I LOVE to Paint!

Riley paints at least twice a day and on a good day we're outside painting 4 different times! He paints with watercolors and tempera but finger paints are becoming his fast favorite! I don't keep all of his art but I keep WAY to much of it because I cant seem to throw it away and when the painting is dry he reminds me to hang it up in his playroom.

Yes, our dog Herbie has been painted on numerous occasions.
