Moving on Up...Out with the Old!

Riley is offically not a baby-baby anymore...or atleast she is now out of her infant carrier. Although I think she likes the big car seat better, its weird carrying her into all the stores and such. There will be days that I will miss that carrier, but days that I wont miss lugging it around, because 25 pounds on my arm was getting pretty heavy! She of course was very curius of her new seat, she seems to really like it! It just seems weird putting the carrier away because its been such a part of out daily lives, but it will be nice to put another big baby thing away! How time flies!

Enjoying her new digs!

Rileys 1st doctors appointment, less than a week old...look at all the room she had in there!

Today, saying good bye! Yeah, Mom is kinda lame because she is documenting this with pictures and sad to see it go!

Happy Birthday Shannon!!!

I just want to send birthday wishes out to my oldest best friend Shannon. Now that we are both into our mid twenties, and have families we are not faced with birthdays that are always special, but less over the top like we were when we were kids. But our birthdays dont go by without us thinking of the memories that we made sharing our birthdays together!! So today, Riley, Grandma and I went to Sylvan Beach, and we shared Canoli Ice Cream just for Aunt Shannon! I couldnt ask for a better best friend and god mother for Riley!! Even though we are 150 miles apart, we still manage to keep in contact and be part of each other daily lives!! I just wish we could spend more of these birthdays together doing fun stuff with our kids!!


So HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUNT SHANNON!! WE LOVE YOU AND WE HOPE YOUR HAVING AN AMAZING DAY! And...thanks for sharing the Canoli ice cream with us!!



Riley is enjoying her new favorite outfit from Shannon too!
