Warm Weather Finally!

I have to tell this story because it melted my heart. Scott is such a sweetie (to his sister atleast...he is definitely acting out to everyone else) So on Friday I met up with my sister Brooke and Hailey was crying in her carseat. Scott was sitting next to her in the back and Brooke and I hear this small little voice start in..."Twinkle Twinkle....Twinkle Twinkle.....Little star, how I wonder what you are." Of course Hailey stopped crying to listen as her brother sang her a little song. SO cute! The cutest part was how he just leaned into her carseat and sang it so softly.
This picture is to show Scott's face when he is trying to tell you how something works (which happens often because he's mechanically minded like his daddy). He gets so serious! In this one he's trying to show me how the two pieces of metal once went together.

Just as Grandpa Scott suspected, Scott is having a blast filling his wagon up with stuff to pull around in the yard, even without shoes on. He LOVES his wagon! Update on the hair...It's coming! And it's even now-yeah! On Friday I met up with my sister in law Lana who is in Utah for the weekend. We got the kids together for lunch. It was so much fun meeting up and getting to meet Amanda for the first time! She's beautiful!

Of course Kelli has her 3 beautiful kids, but by the end of this year, all of the Riggs' boys will have babies! In a one year span of eachother... so much fun! Amanda (from Carson) was born in September, and Hailey in December. Then Caeven (from Chris) was born in February and Kenny's little girl is due in August. Cathy must be so proud!
Here is the only way Hailey will take naps now...with her little puppy dog cuddled up next to her. Moving beyond rice cereal. Today she tried sweet potatoes and loved them. I was going to wait a few more weeks, but the girl nurses 6 times a day, has a 1/4 cup of rice cereal twice a day, and is still grabbing at everything on the table! I don't think we will have to force this one to eat! It's soooo cute- I love it!
