To be that flexible...

Pretty much anything Riley can get her hands on goes in her mouth, including her feet. If she finds something she can't get in her mouth it makes her really mad!

Riley and Aunt Clarice

We had a belated Father's day lunch at Tim's folks and we snapped this picture of Riley with her great-great Aunt Clarice. This is Gran's (Tim's grandpa) sister.

Grandpa-Great

I'm so disappointed this picture didn't turn out very well. Tim took it with his phone and I think the quality settings weren't high enough. We'll have to get another one soon. This was Riley's first day to ride on a golf cart. We went to visit my Grandparents in Illinois earlier this month. She rode with Grandma and Grandpa both that day as we rode around to look at the garden.

Rockin' and Rollin'

Riley has become quite proficient at rolling over from her stomach to her back when she wants a different perspective.

And Another!

Just got an email from my cousins Brad and Carrie and they have a second child due on February 4th!

Another Cousin

We just heard news that my brother Jesse and his wife Ashley are expecting a baby in March of 2009. We are very excited for them.

Visiting

Last Thursday night while I was at a church meeting, Tim and Riley went visiting. They ended up at Danny Cunningham's (or as Tim calls him "Gran-Danny" Cunningham) and Danny's daughters took some pictures of Riley that they passed on to us. Riley is very fortunate to have many honorary aunts, uncles and grandparents...

4 months

Riley is 4 months old today. It is hard to believe. She had her check-up this morning and went with me early to visit at the office. Tim and I took these pictures this morning before we leaft. Riley was 11 lbs 12 oz and 24 1/2 inches long. The dr. was pleased with her growth and she didn't seem to have any problems.

Sunday Afternoon

We took some pictures of Riley on Sunday afternoon. She was in a really good mood and gave us lots of smiles. She will be 4 months old on Monday.

Grandparents

We spent this weekend in Illinois visiting with my family. Grandma and Grandpa Wilson took turns spoiling Riley with some help from the rest of the family. Jesse, Ashley and I picked almost two gallons of blackberries behind mom and dad's house and we spent some time swimming in the pond. The last picture was taken last week of Riley and Tim's mom on her front porch with Star the dog.

No Laughing Matter

We heard our first real laugh from Riley today. She is always smiling and cooing but this sounded like a real laugh. Tim was playing with her with a little stuffed lamb and she kept laughing at him. Tim snuck around and got these pictures. Riley was laying on my chest and giving something behind me a real talking to. We think she was looking at the lamp. She was just staring at it and jabbering in the most serious tone.
