Neighborhood Update
Sunday, July 6, 2008 by Amy
So Riley has made some new neighborhood friends close to her own age. Isaiah is 5 and Matthew is 5 1/2. When Riley first met Isaiah we got into a huge argument over whether he was a boy or a girl. He has rather long corn-rows and Riley took that for a girl-indicator. Also, the argument that Isaiah is a boys name doesn't really fly with a child named Riley with a sister named Avery.
Riley calls Matthew "Nephew." It's kinda cute. Anyway, we all went to Isaiah's house and his father set off a couple of smoke bombs or the kids entertainment and then pulled out a huge inflatable jumping thing, complete with a fan to blow it up! Hello! How cool is that? So Riley was in there with Matthew and Isaiah and doing all of her wrestling moves on them. I told her that if she dishes it she better make sure that she can take it. Matthew and Isaiah finally got her when the teamed up on her. It was a good time for all.
Anyway, they're really good kids. In fact, they are over our house right now playing with the train. Fun times. If it stops drizzling I may be in the mood to fill a butt-load of water balloons and sit back and watch the fun unfold.
Matthew has a younger sister who is 3 1/2 and Isaiah has a younger sister who is about to turn 2 this month. Potential friends for Avery if she ever gets over her shyness.
