Picture from her 1st birthday yesterday!

walking

Its been a couple weeks now but Riley has figured it out and has been walking since the 2nd week of March (10.5 months) . She had been taking a couple steps here and there but one night she just decided "I am going to Walk!" It has been a lot of fun watching her explore in this new way of travel. She loves being outside with Dakota and also playing in the dirt (thanks to Nanny) I can't wait for this summer when we can play in the water.

I also can't believe that in less than a month my baby will be ONE! Crazy how fast this past year has gone, and how fast she has grown up.

Brad 27th birthday

Last weekend we went to palm springs with friends. We had a great time without kids and could be adults again. (it only took us 2 years to finally plan this trip. and we all said we need to do it again.) We also celebrate Brad's 27th birthday at the beginning of the month, and at the end is our 4th wedding anniversary already! Wow time does fly by when your having fun.

Recap of 2011

Hey Everyone. This past year has come and gone, and let me tell you it went WAY to fast.
It brought many new and exciting things for our family. We feel so blessed.

• new house
• many friends and family got married
• new sister in law & niece
• lots & lots of babies
• blessed friendships
• bible studies
• and the best gift was RILEY.

She has really brought a lot of joy to our family.

• 7.5 months old
• Riley is now standing up and walking behind her walker toys. (guessing she is going to take after me, b/c I walked at 8 months. Please slow down little one. Why does pregnancy go by soooo slow but she has grown up sooo fast? it should be opposite.)
• She has her 2 bottom teeth and I think she is cutting a new one on top
• sleeps great at night, but isn't a big napper. (oh well more play time with mommy)

5 months....

Well I know I'm late again at blogging about Riley but oh well.  Life has been busy.

Riley is now 5 1/2 months old. She is almost crawling and is very active.
She loves to play, roll around, lay on her tummy, and scoot.
She is 15 lbs and 25 inches long.
She had her second cold a couple weeks ago, but we are over that now. She didn't like it very much
when she saw the suction bulb or a tissue. Glad that is over with.




Riley now has 2 new friends and has about 3 more on the way. It has been so much fun having all these babies around.
