Riley, Riley, Riley...

Riley is so much fun to have around...I just wanted to post a few things from the past week or so that i have captured on camera...
Riley helping me clean our sliding glass doors. She does a great job, don't you think?!
I made sure to put the "tupperware drawer" low (trick from my mom) so that she always has some fun stuff to play with in the kitchen. She learned how to crawl in and gets mad when there is no room for her, haha.
This picture didn't quite capture what i wanted to show, but if you look closely she has two bruises on her head, one above her eye and one smack dab in the middle of her forehead. Now that she can walk, she thinks she is sooo big! Well, she walks everywhere now and falls everywhere too! She hit the corner of a table right above her eye. The bruise in the middle seems to be permanet though. Everytime it's just about to fade out completely, BOOM, she falls again and gets another right in the same place. That particular one was from a ball that her uncle rolled to her and it went between her legs so, naturally, she looked between her legs to try to get it and fell on her head!
Riley's first visit to the pumpkin patch - our camera is slowing coming to it's death, so most of the pictures were blurry...When we got to the pumpkin patch it was closed! Luckily a few of the owners were still there and were kind enough to turn the lights on for us, we had the place to ourself which was nice...Riley was ccrraannkky because it was so late, so most of the pictures we have of her she is crying or mad.
She liked to try to hold the little pumpkins, but they were all too heavy.



Josh and i are so proud of her first "Real" word... "wow", she says it so many different ways...in this video is the regualr "wow" but sometimes, she looks straight up and whispers a wow, and other times she walks around saying "wowowowow"

  1. Her "Wow" sounds soo cute! I love all your new pictures. And we would LOVE to go hiking ANYTIME with you guys!! Seriously, give us some dates that work and we are up for it! The only thing is that we can only go Sun-Wed. Gregg is still on the nasty grave yard shifts Thurs-Sat. =( So ready for it to change. I really want to hike the Palm Springs Tram before it gets too cold up there. Let me know what day works for you guys, maybe a Sunday afternoon after church???

  2. Those are so cute! Don't you just love all the bruises they get when they are just starting to walk? Abby was the biggest klutz and was constantly hurting herself (5stitches right in the middle of her forehead at 11 months old).
