Riley's 5th Birthday

Happy Birthday Riley!! We had Riley's 5th Birthday at a gymnastics studio. They all had a blast and were exhausted by the end (so were we). I can't believe she's already 5!!!

Allie's ready for the party

Sorry for the blurry picture, but couldn't help posting this. We asked her to come downstairs for breakfast. It took quite a bit, but eventually she came down wearing a t-shirt, black tights and her pearl necklace! She said she was going to a party! Silly girl!

Halloween 2011

This is Riley and Allie at Halloween 2011. Riley was Alice in Wonderland and Allie was a chicken. (Allie calls it a rooster and gets upset if you call it a chicken.)

 It was a pretty warm night. She roasted!

She looks so sweet just like Alice!

Allie and Riley

They are playing so well these days. Riley will do just about anything to make Allie laugh. It's so cute! Here are some pictures of them together.

Allie's crawling

Allie's is now crawling around. As we are excited for her it's hard to keep an eye on her. No matter how often we vacuum she always seems to be putting something in her mouth. Oh also, her hair is out of control! She has way too much hair for a 9 month old. She also just cut her first two teeth on the bottom at the same time. She's a drool monster! I will have more pictures soon.

Riley's Pictures

Charlie has been giving Riley his cell phone because she likes to take pictures. She knows how to do it and once he turns it on she walks away. She is in the other room and we have no idea what she is doing. When she is finished she hands us the camera and we get to see what she wanted to take pictures of that day. She didn't really get the hang of it until this time. When she got back she had taken pictures of everything at her point of view. Once we started looking through them we were crying and rolling on the floor. We didn't tell her to take pictures of anything. This is what she brought to us.

  

Riley climbed up onto the window sill the other day and layed down. We asked what she was doing there, and she replied "look, I cat!". She obviously picked up on our two cats sitting in the same spot. How could I not post these?!?
