Sleepy Girl...

Riley's swing is the best. I can almost guarantee she will snooze away within minutes when I place her in it. And luckily we are still on our first package of D batteries. Of course her other favorite place to nap is in our bed. Tim took this picture of her stuffed between the pillows.

New Toys

Thanks to a cheap find on Craigslist (http://craigslist.org) Riley has a new plaything. We bought this gently used walker at a steal and she has been sitting in it some while I work in the kitchen. She can't maneuver around in it yet but she enjoys sitting up and playing with the toys. Her little legs look so skinny hanging down. She had a round of shots last Friday at her 5 month mark and she is now weighing 13 lbs.

Bathtime Hair

Riley likes bathtime. She seems to enjoy the water and the extra attention. I love the way her hair looks after I dry it with the towel. It is always crazy and standing on end. And then when it dries it is almost fuzzy because it is so thin. I took Riley to the dr. yesterday over a nighttime cough she has had for over a week. It has been keeping her up at night. The dr. prescribed vicks vapor rub on the bottoms of her feet and then put socks on her. She said it would work for adults too. The main reason for the socks is to keep her from licking it off her feet!

A Sweet Spirit

Riley is such a sweetie. She is so even tempered. Nothing ever seems to make her mad. She has had a terrible cough the last few days and lots of drainage. Despite how she must feel we can't tell any difference in her disposition. Tim got these pictures the other night of her many funny faces. We laugh that a lot of times she doesn't even look like the same little girl in some of the pictures we take.

Summer Pics

These are some pictures from back in July when we visited my family in Illinois. My brother Jesse got a chance to feed Riley and Julie, my sister, is playing in the floor with her. My mom quilted the quilt that Riley is laying on in the last picture.

Grandpa and Grammy Wilson

Mom and Dad snapped some pictures of Riley while they were keeping her this week. I think they had a good time hanging out together. Mom also caught a picture of some hummingbirds at the shop. Tim's mom bought me a couple of feeders for my birthday. They had only been up a few days and already had 3 hummingbirds.

Slim Pickin's

Ok-So this week has been really busy and I'm short on any good pictures to show. My parents were here this week but all the pictures are on their camera so when I get some of those from them I'll post them. I think Riley had a great time with her Grandpa and Grammy Wilson this week. I think she even stole some pancake syrup from Grandpa's hot cakes. I'm sure they spoiled her rotten but she doesn't seem any worse for it. She had a great day at day care yesterday despite some sniffles and a cough she has developed this week. I took this picture one day last week. Riley almost always falls asleep on the way home from daycare but this day she was holding on to the side of her carseat for some reason. The picture doesn't do it justice. It was really cute.
