I have been hating my bathroom for awhile. I have just been in this funk lately where I want to change everything in my house! Well one step at a time, right?
Finally one morning I just decided...that's it! I'm doing it today, and I did!
I kind of randomly decided to paint the stripes. I already had the paint so figured, why not?
It's much brighter and happier now :)
Check out that gap tooth grin!
I love his grin and hope his front teeth stay gapped :)
His hair is getting crazy long! It is just on the verge of "no longer" cute long, but I don't care.
I am sick of the battle of cutting his hair.
I'm going to just let it grow, as long as I can stand it.
We had a play date at the Dino Museum with the Burkman's.
Check out Riv's mullet! Yikes!
*my pics got out of order so there is a pic later of all the kids that went to the museum*
The kids didn't really seem that into the museum. River was a little overwhelmed by some of the noises and all the people. My friend Cindy and I were glad it was only $2 tuesday, because we were out of there in about 30 minutes! haha! Oh well it was fun just hanging with the Burkman clan for awhile :)
After the museum the Burkman's had to go, but I figured we would hang around Thanksgiving point a little longer and take advantage of the $2 tuesday. So the boys and I headed over to Farm Country.
River has never really showed much interest when we have gone to Farm Country before, but I was so proud of him, he really "saw" the animals this time and interacted with them! It was great to watch!!
Progress!
Look! He is touching the horse!! That is big for him!!
Times we have come in the past he would just walk by all the fences and just seemed like he could have cared less about the animals.
He really liked the pigs.
This was the "dance hall", so I told him to dance and this is what I got! Haha!
This was my favorite part!!
HE RODE A HORSE...BY HIMSELF!!
The line for the pony ride was pretty long and it was getting pretty hot outside.
Knowing that River was probably going to get to the front of the line and then bolt, I asked him if he was sure he wanted to ride the horse. He said "yes". I was starting to sweat now and his cheeks were getting flushed so I asked again, and again he said "yes". I'm not going to lie I probably asked 2 more times. Finally we got to the front of the line so I gave him his ticket and told him to go give it to the woman and that she would help him on because I had to stay with Milo. I was shocked when with no hesitation he took the ticket gave it to the woman and got on the horse!!! That is like HUGE for River!! I thought for sure once the horse started to move he would freak out and try to jump off, but he didn't! He loved it!!
PROGRESS PROGRESS PROGRESS!!!
I cannot tell you how proud I am of you buddy!!
Most of you probably think that I'm just a crazy over protective Mom (which honestly I probably would have thought too before I had Riv.), but some of you understand what it's like to have a son/child that struggles with things like this and I love you!
The whole ride home we kept saying "yee haw" to each other :)
Milo's shoes usually don't stay on too long :)
Milo really liked the ducks.
