Riley's Friend

Recently Riley has made a new friend. This friend has gotten her in a little bit of trouble now and again. But we still allow them to get together to hang out and have fun. Here are some pictures of them spending time together.












Here they are saying hello to each other...





Here they are just chillin and hanging out.






Serenading each other...






They enjoy a good book every now and again.








Here they are deep in thought.







And finally here they are exploring their newly found teeth together.

Crying

Daddy created this of her crying in the grass.

Here are pictures from Riley's birth to 9 months. Don't worry, no actual shots from the birth itself. That would be just gross.




The first one is one of me still pregnant. This is a shot from my baby shower at work, I think I was 34 weeks pregnant here. I quit working shortly after this.




I lucked out, I had an easy pregnancy. No morning sickness, and the labor was relatively easy. No complications, it went very smoothly.


This next picture is from the day she was born, it is the first time her daddy got to hold her. My day started early and ended pretty late, by the end, when everyone had gone home, I think I had been up for almost 24 hours.






Here she is. She had beautiful coloring after she was born, she was a little red, but not like most newborns, and she had hair!!! I was so excited about the hair.


This next one is when she was 3 months old, it was taken while we were on vacation in Victoria, BC.






Here she is with her big blue eyes. She doesn't remember much from this vacation, so we took a ton of pictures to help her remember. This is also the first time she went swimming. So we had to get a super cute bathing suit, which was too big, I had to tie the straps together in the back. Here is a picture from swimming.





The next one we have is when she is 4 months old. In October we went took her to a pumpkin patch, and got her her first pumpkin.






This next one is of her and daddy with her first pumpkin.

Next we have one from her first Thanksgiving. She has a lot of cousins. I think all together there are nine of them, including Riley.

This is her first snow.

Here is her Christmas picture. She is 6 months old here.






When she was 6 months old we went down to Guatemala for Christmas to visit some friends of ours that are missionaries down there. We arrived in Guatemala on Christmas Eve. Here is a picture of her and "Bro. Missionary".





These next three are also in Guatemala with some more of Bro. Missionary's family.





Here she is with Auntie Kayla



Here she is with her very first crush, Kyle Edington.




Here she is with Kolbey Edington

This one is her getting a bath in a bucket in Guatemala.

Since we got home in January, we have had two snow falls, I was able to get a few pictures of her in the snow from the first snow. This one was taken in March. She was 9 months old here.

The next one is her 9 month picture. We were blessed here with some wonderful sunshine, I took advantage of the beautiful weather and got some good shots of Riley out in the sun.





The last ones are from Easter, the first one is with her Daddy on Easter Sunday, again we got beautiful weather.





This next one is her first time sitting in the grass, apparently not a big fan of it...





And last but not least, her first tooth!!!
