Hooray for Aunt Sarah

We were so lucky to have Aunt Sarah visit us for a whole week! We had so much fun sightseeing and just hanging out. Riley also had her big 6 month doctor's visit. She's now tipping the scales at 15 lbs. 6 oz. (40th per.), measuring at 26 in. (60th per.) and is sporting a HUGE noggin' (90th per.). Riley was so brave while getting her shots, but had a tough time afterward. Luckily Aunt Sarah was here to help Riley feel better! We're going to miss Aunt Sarah this week, but can't wait to get her and Uncle Brad back out here soon!

Aunt Sarah is so much fun!

Such a happy girl!

We live a pampered life.

Let's Go Preds!

The Nashville Predators are taking on the Detroit Red Wings in the first round of the NHL Playoffs. Riley's first sporting event (in my belly) was a Preds game. Unfortunately we forgot to pick up some baby Preds apparel before we left town, so we had to fashion a onesie out of old Preds shirts. Can you guess which shirt we cut up? Here are some cute pics of us watching game 5 together. Right now we are waiting for the overtime period to get started...Go Preds!





Playing Catch-Up

Sorry it has been so long since our last post. It has actually been a busy couple weeks for us. Last Monday through Thursday Brad attended the NFL League meetings out in San Francisco. His hotel was right next to were the Olympic torch was supposed to end up. While Daddy was away Riley and I attended infant massage classes at our library--so much fun! Riley really seems to enjoy it. We had a very low key weekend. Riley tried barley cereal for the first time and can't seem to get enough of it. The weather has been unpredictable all week, but we're supposed to get a few great days this weekend. Hopefully we'll be able to bust out some of Riley's super cute Spring/Summer outfits!

Mommy's Big Helper Girl

We love to watch the washer and dryer!

Napping on Daddy

I'm mad because my pants are riding up on me.

It was so windy the brim on my hat got blown back.

Playing music for Mommy

What a happy bear cub!

Loungin' around after my bath and massage.

Swatting at the camera.

I love to stick out my tongue.

Story time wore me out!

Yummy In My Tummy

We're back in KC after a fun filled week on the East Coast. Today Riley tried solids for the first time. She did a great job, but was frustrated by how slow the whole process was. Here's a little video of our first "big girl meal" (sorry it's sideways--haven't figured out how to correct that yet) and some other favorites from the past week.

Also, if you have a lot of extra time on your hands and/or you didn't get enough Riley shots from our previous post, here is a link to my mom's Webshots album of our trip: http://family.webshots.com/album/562955948SrHlPL?vhost=family



We couldn't spoon the cereal in fast enough!

YUMMY!

We're not sure about our new chair.

Daddy/Daughter Bonding Time

I love my new sleeper Miss Laura sent me. It has froggy feet!

Reunited at last!!

Snoozin' with Mr. Bear and Aunt Sarah and Uncle Brad's apt.
