Geaux Tigers

We took the girls to visit Mike the Tiger yesterday! We gotta get em fired up for LSU Football! Teaching them to be Tiger Fans and to love Football just like my Dad did with his girls!












And here is a pic from Saturday, we made a Target Run and Ella Kate insisted on bringing her baby! She was the talk of the Target and was oh so happy with herself!

My Sweet Girls

Riley had an Infant See eye exam today and did so great! While we were waiting to see the doctor, she was hamming it up for the nurses and when they would try to do paper work, she would start fake coughing to get their attention. She is a mess! They ate it up with a spoon!

She did great at the exam. She loved following the Doctor and his lights and she loved these black and white paddles he was using. She was so still and good for him, he went on and on about what a good patient she was! He did detect a astigmatism in both eyes, but said it was nothing to worry about it. That it could change as she grows older and he doesn't think she will need glasses because of how great she followed and tracked all of the objects. He wants to see her back in a year! I highly recommend this Infant See program, I mean you cannot beat a free eye exam for your Baby!

MeMe took EK to school today since we had Riley's appt. Ms Angela sent me an email and it totally melted my heart. Here is what it said:

The girl was a trip this morning-- directing me to Aloysius, telling me when to turn, and of course “be careful MeMe” when I got on the interstate. When we got to Aloysius she wanted to go see Jesus. She told me Jesus was in her heart. We went to church and sat down for a few minutes and she was so quiet and respectful. When I brought her to her class Linda told me they had taken them yesterday and how good they were.


How sweet is that!!! Made me smile!!!

Our Little Princesses

The girls were playing Saturday morning in the living room together while I was in the kitchen loading the dishwasher. Ella Kate yells, "Mama, come see Riley! She is a princess!" I grab the camera and run in there and this is what I find-





SO CUTE! Ella Kate had dressed her sister as a princess and was very impressed with herself! My heart melted!

And then on Sunday Ella Kate was treated like a princess when we went to Chuck E Cheese for her "Potty Party!" She made it all the way around on her Potty Train so her reward was a trip to Chuck E Cheese. Katie, Russell, Mills, and Lib and Alycee, Norm, and the boys all met us there. We had a great time! Riley even enjoyed herself! Scott helped Ella Kate win alot of tickets(I think he secretly had a blast!) and they got lots of prizes! Here are some pics-

The girls and their newest talents

Riley is getting so big, she is sitting now! We practiced some this weekend and she can sit assisted with the Boppy really well. And then sit for a few minutes by herself before toppling over. She gets so tickled and starts giggling with excitement! It is too cute! Roux was proud of her too and had to show her some love!







And Ella Kate got a little dance lesson from her Aunt Jenny last Saturday night! Sorry it is so dark, but we were sitting outside when this impromptu lesson took place.

And here is a pic her Uncle Kevin took of her. He suggested we get her Hands-Free set-up for her ride!
