My little gymnast...

I have said before, Anna Riley would make a great gymnast right now! I wish I could put her in a gymnastics class now because I know she would love it but the only ones I see start around 2. This girl LOVES to do flips! It scares the grandparents to death sometimes. She will wear you out because she wants to do like twenty flips in a row and then just comes up laughing!! And now since her Daddy started letting her drop her Bunny and then bend backwards to pick it up, that is her new thing right before bed...but not just one time, over and over! She throws it down and immediately bending backwards to get it! She tried doing this in a restaurant the other night!! Oh my!










Riley's Birthday

Riley's birthday was last Thursday.  He turned 33!  :)  I don't know if I have mentioned on here before but he ask for a very elaborate meal each birthday...are you ready for this...Spam and macaroni and cheese! :)  Yes, that is what is wants each year so that is what he gets!  I did make some really good 5 cheese macaroni and a couple more things to go with it.  He also wanted an Earthquake cake as his birthday cake.  Thursday night, his family went to eat at the Tin Top with us.
Since, I didn't post on this on his Birthday...Thanks for everything Riley!  I don't know what we would do without you! We love you!! Hope you had a wonderful birthday! :)


First steps...

Yesterday, Anna Riley took her first steps!  She had been walking, holding one of our hands all weekend so I knew she was so close but she just gets scared and sits down.  But, yesterday while Riley was home for lunch we were in the floor playing and I stood her up and she took off walking to me as fast as she could go!  We were so excited and she didn't know what all the excitment was for. I was so happy that Riley and I both got to see one of her big milestones!! Last night, she walked (holding my hand) from the kitchen all the way to the bathroom...and wow that took some time but she loved it!  My little baby is growing up just a little too fast!!
