Rylee's New Tricycle
On Monday night, Ryan thought it was time to get Rylee her very own tricycle. She has been riding the one at daycare and just LOVES it. So, we decided to run to Wal-Mart and buy one for her. She was sooooo excited about it. We got home and she even had to help her daddy put it together. She COULD NOT wait to ride it. Finally, it was complete so we headed outside to try it out.
Here is our little munchkin posing for the picture
Here she goes......
She does really well on it but we decided, flip-flops aren't the best shoes to wear. We'll have to try it with her tennis shoes next time.
I can't believe my baby girl is big enough to be riding a tricycle. It just doesn't seem possible!!!! She is growing up way to fast for me! BUT, we are enjoying every minute of this stage she is in. She is such a joy and so much fun!
I've got a busy rest of the week and weekend planned. Thursday night, I am going out to dinner with some ladies from work. Friday is Ryan's b-day so we will be celebrating that evening. Saturday, my sister-in-law and I are having a baby shower for our other sister-in-law. We are doing a brunch so I'm super excited about that. And then Saturday night, we are finally having our house warming party. Most of our friends haven't seen our new house yet so I'm very excited to "entertain" them! We will also be celebrating Ryan's birthday. I will hopefully have lots of pictures to post after the weekend.
I hope you all have a great rest of the week....until next time TTFN!!

Weekend Fun with my mom & the Rice's
Last weekend, we had house guests. My mom brought up the Rice Family to stay with us until Sunday. We had lots of fun stuff planned during their stay.
On Thursday night, we ate at Hooters. When I asked Corbin, the 8 year old, what he wanted to do when he came to KC, he said "eat at Hooters." His mom Kirstan shook her head at his response. When I asked him why he wanted to eat at Hooters he said "because there at hot girls there!" How cute is that?!?!?! So, we began our trip with dinner at Hooters. The Shaffers met us there and we had a great time.
Logan & Kirstan
Corbin, our waitress & Aidan
Me & Logan - I just LOVE this girl!!!!
Me & Lexie - LOVE this girl too!!

Ryan & I
Friday, we had a busy day of shopping planned. Shopping was on Logan's list of things to do. We began @ Target so they could get their school supplies. We followed that up with a trip to Kohls & then Famous Footwear. Then it was time to break for lunch. I took them to Planet Sub...YUMMY!!! They were all very impressed with lunch! MORE SHOPPING....we went to TJ Max and then Old Navy. The Old Navy store has manikins in the front of their store and every time we go there, Rylee gets so excited to see "her friends." She has to go up and hug all of them. It is pretty cute. I think she and Corbin were all shopped out so they decided to pose with the manikins. Corbin was very good at it. At one point, I freaked out because I couldn't find him. I looked up and there he was, standing with the manikins.....he looked just like one of them. Here is a picture of them....
That evening we were having a Mexican Fiesta at our house. Tacos, salsa, guacamole, rice, margaritas, etc. It was wonderful!! We followed that up with some cards. My mom and Lexie were being really silly....this is what my mom looked like after Lexie fixed her hair....
Saturday, we went to Summit Waves. It is a small water park not too far from Rylee's daycare. It wasn't terribly hot so it was a perfect day!! We all enjoyed the lazy river, the pool, and the water slides.

We had to leave the park around 2:45 because a storm was rolling in....good thing we went early so we could get our monies worth!!
On Saturday night, I made beer burgers & potatoes on the grill. Another yummy feast at the Krause house. Once again, we stayed up late playing cards.
Sunday rolled around and it was time for them to go home. I made them some breakfast casserole before they got on the road. I was very sad to see them go but so thankful for the 4 days we got to spend together. We hope to do it again next year.
The rest of our Sunday was spent cleaning, doing laundry and napping. Can't believe the weekend is already over.
Until next time....TTFN

Susan G Komen - Race for a Cure
For the first time today, I participated in the Susan G Komen, Race for a Cure. What an AMAZING experience!!! I was part of a team that was walking for a good friend of the Krause Family. I took Rylee so we did the 5K walk. I think next year, I'd like to try and run it. Here are some pic's that I took...
Rylee getting ready for her first 5k
Good friends Richard & Aly
JB & Rylee

View in front of us....sooooo many people out to support such a great cause!
The view of people behind us
I am so glad I was able to participate in such a great cause. I will definitely do it again next year...might even have to try and run it!
After the race, we head to Uncle Arnie & Aunt Dana's house for some breakfast. They are in the process of finishing their basement so that is where Ryan was. Rylee and I hung out with Aunt Dana for the rest of the morning. It was so nice to just relax and chill for a change...plus, I never just get to hang out with Dana anymore!
Rylee and I then proceed to Wal-Mart to get a few things....a word of caution: NEVER, go Wal-Mart when it is Tax-Free day in Missouri!!! Almost too much for me to handle! Then we had to run by the grocery store and then home for a nap! I enjoyed a much needed 3 hour nap with Rylee...can't remember the last time I got to do that!! It was so nice!
Now, I must get back to hanging up the pictures, finishing laundry and starting supper. I can't believe the weekend is almost over and it's time for work again tomorrow. YUK!!!!
Until next time...TTFN!!

Saturday Fun
Yesterday was a very productive day for us! We had yet to get all our pictures hung in our new home. It was driving me absolutely crazy not having all my pictures up. I almost didn't feel like I lived here!!!! So we got busy and now, it's almost complete! YEAH!!! It really feels like our home now!!
After working so hard, we decided to take a break and enjoy some pool time. It was hotter than heck today and the wind was blowing 150mph...at least by 5:30, the wind has soft of calmed down. Here are some pic's from the pool
Ready, Set, GO!!!
Our little fish...She has NO FEAR!!!
Rylee & her daddy!!!
We ended our Saturday with some grilling and then relaxing! Rylee & I had to get up early on Sunday morning for the Susan G Komen, Race for a cure....
Until next time, TTFN!!

Catching up
Once again, I have been a very, very bad blogger!! I just can't seem to find time in the day to keep up with this. Like last week, Ryan had to work nights so I was on my own with little miss Rylee....boy, I don't know how single parents do it. I know they just make it work but man, it's a lot of work!!! I can't complain too much because she is such a great little girl but she is so busy. Always doing something.
4th of July, my older brothers family came up because my nephew had a baseball tournament up here. We had a blast while they were here. Here are a few pictures we took at the Royals game.
Rylee & Ashlee enjoying the game

July 11th - Rylee & her daddy - getting ready to go to Jake's b-day party

July 14th - Spaghetti Night - Yes, I still get messy eating Spaghetti
Next up, trip to c-town....until then TTFN
