We just had the annual Pinewood Derby (every Cub Scouts dream). Logan's "coaster" did great!! If anyone knows anything about Logan, it's that he LOVES trains. Since spending a week with Abuelita in San Diego this last December and riding the coaster there, he has grown a little attached. It's just another train to add to the disturbia!! Anyway, we all had fun tonight, and we are very, very proud of Logan. :)Here's Logan's car getting ready to race down the track.
This is what Logan looked like when he saw his car finish.
Last, but certainly not least, here he is with his certificate and car.
We were watching all of the boys last night - it really was cute to see how excited all of the boys (and their dads might I add) were to see the races!

Hi Debra!! I'm so excited to find your blog! Swear I'm not a stalker.. but i ran across it reading Amy's! So i'm saying hi - I'm going to add you to my blog list.. hope thats okay! Cannot belive the baby is due soo soon - how exciting for you guys!! Love the picture of cole with the undies on his head - tooo cute!!
Of course you can add me!! I'm so proud of you for figuring it all out! Excited to be able to keep up with you and whats going on with your family - and I'll be super excited when you start posting pictures of the new baby boy!!!
Logan will be 11 in April. I can't believe my baby will be that old! He is in the 5th grade, and can't wait to go to middle school next year. He is still a great helper around the house, and his mommy really appreciates it! He has started to take on the big responsibility of babysitting his younger brothers. It is SO nice having a built in baby sitter, so thank you Logan! Logan still wants to be a pilot when he grows up. I don't know that that will ever change. He is still playing tennis here in ABQ, which his parents love. Logan is an excellent reader, loves Cub Scouts, and is an all-around happy boy.
Cole
Cole will be 5 in Febrary (where does the time go?). He is very excited to start going to mommy's preschool again. He, too, is a great helper (but only on his terms). He has learned to love to play with Ty, which often gets both of them in trouble. Rough-housing is their favorite, but only until someone gets hurt. Cole very much likes to play video games (thanks Uncle Michael), and excels beyone his years (this is not a compliment to his mother's parenting!). He also enjoys, tremendously, playing with Star Wars. As a middle child he is often ignored, but his booming voice makes sure everyone knows he's around :) He played his first season of soccer this last fall, and loved it! He is just starting his first season of basketball, and, shall we say is learning to love it. Cole is such a joyful addition to our family, and we love him dearly.
Tyler
Ty, more than ever, is still feisty!! He even more so knows what he wants and, sadly, he usually gets it. The only problem is that he knows what he wants, but his parents don't always know what he wants. We've been working on his every-growing vocabulary. Saying that Ty loves Mickey Mouse is an understatement. He carries around his "mouse" and any other stuffed animal he can fit in his hands. He loves on them and kisses them all the time. Sometimes when Mom goes into check on him at night he'll kiss his mouse while he's sleeping. It's the cutest thing ever! Ty loves his older brothers, and loves that they dode on him. He is definitely a rough brute! Beating up on Cole is one of his favorite things to do. They both have battle wounds to prove it! He is now in 4T clothes (remember, he's not quite 2), but everyone think's he's older. When he throws fits in the store people look at us funny ;) Even though he's a handful, we love him and am glad he has joined the Rivard ranks.
I'm a closet sewer, crafter, blogger, and deal lover. I've been wanting to start up a blog dedicated to the things I "secretly" love and obsess over, and this blog is it! Even if no one ever reads it, it's still a pleasure of mine to get all of my creative energy out of me ;)
