Just to get you by...

Hopefully I fixed it so yo can see the pictures. I loaded them through picasa earlier and it just wasn't working right. I wish there was an easier way to upload photos. Oh well. Enjoy the pics.

Riley loves chewing on a straw. It keeps him entertained when we are eating out.

Riley's new favorite post nap activity.

He is soooo proud of himself.

This is Riley's new favorite place to sit. He thinks he is such a big boy sitting up high on the couch. He also likes to fall off, but there will be more on that later. Hope everyone has a good Memorial Day.

Happy Mother's Day

Dear Mom,
Thank you for being the greatest mom a girl could ever ask for. Thank you for teaching me to do lots of things...cook, clean, laundry (not sure I am all that thankful for the last two, but you taught me well), bake, read, and lots of other things. Thank you most of all for teaching me how to love my husband and my child. I guess I have never really understood how much you loved me until I had Riley and I love him soooo much and I know that you love me even more than that because we have lots of history. Thank you for everything you have done for me over this past year. It wouldn't have been near as easy to be pregnant and get through almost of a year of motherhood without you being a phone call away. I know I have kept the phone lines hot with questions or even just to tell you a funny story. Thanks for being my mom. I love you!

Who Knew...

That Riley would enjoy crawling on the bottom of the changing table while Mommy subbed at pre-school one day?

That a package of diapers could be really entertaining?

(I see the above face pretty often. This is first time I have captured it. I will try to get a better one soon.)

Have a good weekend!

Pictures and a few words...

On Sunday on the ride home from Tyler, Riley was just chillin in his car seat reading a book and looking at cars.

I like this picture even though I had the flash on. It looks like he really is reading.

Riley has turned into quite the stander these past few days. He loves to let go of whatever he is holding onto and throw his hands up in the air. He is soooo proud of himself and gets so excited. It is really cute!

This might be one of my new favorite pictures. He is just so stinking cute. I can't get over it!

Have a good week!
