That was AWESOME!
After Riley goes down a slide, he throws his hands in the air and says," THAT WAS AWESOME!" He then runs to get in line to do it again.
Shopping!
Sunshine!
We took full advantage of the last few days of sun, and have spent hours outside playing in parks, streets, fields, you name it! When there are no other kids at a playground, I get talked into chasing Riley through tunnels, down slides, and across bridges. This never was a problem in the past, but with Taylor it was a bit tricky. We managed to all three race around the playground and enjoy the spring weather.
Emotion
Riley has been really interested in learning about emotions lately. I went and found some books and some online games to help him understand emotion. Now everyday he has to explain to me who is feeling sad, who is happy, who is mad etc. etc. etc.
Riley:"Mom I might just have to cry now."
Me: "Why honey, what is wrong?" (We were getting into the car, leaving Target)
Riley: "Well sometimes it's hard to say goodbye."
Me: "I know but you will see them again soon." (Not knowing what he was referring to)
Then there was silence and then a few minutes later Riley asks, "Mom, do you think Thomas is sad like me?" I held back my laughter and told Riley that Thomas missed him but that he could go back to Target to visit Thomas soon. That seemed to resolve the issue for at least that day.

Saturday
Taylor decided he knew how to run. He ran around with a green hat on his head while he did this loud grunting sound all day. Riley went to the train musuem with grandpa and had serious stomach issues. Grandpa and Riley returned both covered in poop, from head to toe. It turned out to be a nice little Saturday.......
Nothing like a fresh, ice cold Coke!
