My talented son

Not to brag, but I have the best son in the world!  Not only is he cute and funny but he is incredibly talented!  Why, just this morning he showcased his newest trick...

Now you show me another kid who can fit 3 pacifiers in his mouth at one time!  Do you think colleges give scholarships for things like this???  

Don't make me look cute!

Yesterday, we made plans to go to shul.  We woke up, had breakfast, started to get ready and ran into a wall.  That wall is called stubbornness.  

Chris picked out an adorable outfit for Riley, but someone wasn't 100% on-board when it came to the suspenders.  Riley wasn't quite sure about them and got especially upset when we tried to tie everything together with his snazzy shoes.

While we did end up getting him to like the outfit as a whole, we did give in and allowed him one change - so as he walked in looking adorable and pulled together, we were hoping most people wouldn't notice that he was wearing his shark slippers...

Don't worry too much - the tear stopped the moment we walked out of his room and promised him toys and challah!

Our new living room

Well, it's been a work in progress since we moved in, but now that the new couch has been delivered, we were able to make the purchases necessary to complete the living room!  With a new rug, some throw pillows, a few drapes and a lamp, we are almost done.  Of course, it will always be a work in progress but there is finally seating for more than one.  

Can you tell who is most excited to have the new couch in place?  Riley has claimed his spot in the middle of the couch and has made himself quite comfortable with a pillow and blanket.  His favorite things to watch?  Chuggington and Walking With Dinosaurs!

We are now officially open for business and can host guests in the living room - so feel free to stop by and test out the new seating area.
