our princess
This may possibly be the silliest thing i've ever seen, ever. Abigail is dressed up like a princess, on a tractor, pulling a dump truck, with a baby doll in a car seat in it. Gosh, I love her!
The adventures of the Reilly family.

The other night Josiah asked me to tie him up in a blanket so he could hop around like an asparagus. Everyone else joined in too. Silly, silly kids.
Samuel was so proud to be wearing a blanket like his big brother and sister.
Abigail has really been wanting to take some pictures, so the other day I let her snap a few. Here is one she got of us together.
Every evening we take a walk after dinner. And usually every evening there are these two butterflies that hang out in a particular spot. The other night John thought he'd see if he could get one to land on him. So he stood really still and stuck out his finger. And sure enough, it did. Here is Josiah checking it out. Love his goggles.
The other day we put bubble bath in the pool. it was such a fun time. Josiah was having a hard keeping his glasses up here, but he was having a great time nonetheless.
The kids would run and run around to make the bubbles work up and get big and frothy.
Samuel really likes to pile up all the pillows and then jump onto them from the couch. The next few pics show is fun.
It's funny how the kids like to play snow in the summer and then swimming in the winter. Here is Abigail ready to brave the cold. She said she didn't need a hat, she had the umbrella.
A few weeks ago we took the kids to Idlewild/Storybook forest. It was such a great time. We didn't go through the forest last year, but when we did this year it brought back so many memoires of being a kid. It is exactly the same. What a fun time!
Mommy and Josiah posing in front of the big pencil. I'm pretty sure I won't be this happy when he really heads off to school.
Last year, as soon as we entered Idlewild Abigail's eyes grew wide at the sight of the Ferris Wheel, she really wanted to ride it. But we were planning on doing the water park first. But by the time we got back to the Ferris Wheel the storms were coming and they shut it down. So this year it was the first thing we did. She had a blast and thought it was well worth the wait.
This was a really cool thing inside the forest area. They were tubes that forced air out and made these balls float. Here we have 3 going at once. Very cool!
This was a big slide that they slid down on potato sacks. The fun part was the giant cargo net they had to climb to get up there. It was probably over 3 stories tall.
This was a super fun thing. Though Josiah had a hard time the first couple tries, he's got the hang of it here.
They had these boats that the kids could float across the pool and back. Of course Abigail turned it into a race, but they both did a great job!
Abigail and Josiah driving the cars at Idlewild. She was insistent that she would be in the drivers seat, but she had to scoot over to let him in.
What a big boy Samuel is getting to be. Here he is sitting big and holding our hands on the train at Idlewild. It was so cute, he held my hand, then he put out his hand and asked to hold Josiah's too.
After a long, and very fun day, it took about 2 minutes for them all to fall asleep in the car on the way home.
Samuel really likes to help water the plants. I think he mistook himself for one here.
The other day the kids gathered up all sorts of stuff, big and small and played trashman. They then pretended the corner by the couch was the dump.
