Valentine's Day is Coming & We're Ready

Six months old and I already know where chocolate is supposed to go...my mouth :0)

A Valentine's Day photo shoot. The pictures are so big I had to do two pictures at a time so scroll to the next post to see the rest.

Valentine's Day...We're Ready!... Continued...

Here are some pictures of our little "Sweetie" Riley.

6 Months Check-ups & Shots

On Monday Riley had to get FOUR shots. It was horrible, yes I cried because Riley cried. She was so sad and screamed worse than she has ever screamed before. But, then she seemed ok. Of course she slept the whole night, but I kept going in her room to make sure she is still breathing.

Her Stats:

Weight: 15.25 lbs =35%

Height: 27 inches =89th %

Head: 16.54 =37%

She gained 2 inches since her 4 month apt. but only gained .25 in weight since 4 months. She's tall and skinny, and the doctor said she's as healthy as can be. One day I am going to make JAMES take her, since he acts like he's so hard core and it wouldn't be hard to see her cry and scream!

The morning Cathryn and Rick were leaving to go back home...that's why James and I look dead tired! :0)

Normally, I don't like anyone to do this with Riley but James, but oh well, there was no stopping Rick.

James' parents finally decided to come spend Christmas with us in South Carolina. We had a lot of fun with them here. James took his Dad golfing, they flew his new toys he got for Christmas (helicopter, big plane...boys will be boys)...let's just say the hobby store should know his name by now. Cathyrn and I went shopping, yes we both purchased a Coach purse. :0)

We picked Cathryn and Rick up in my parent's RV (Yes, my parents were there) Then we went to look at Christmas lights in a town in NC that gets completely decked out. Then we went to Columbia on Christmas day, then to Myrtle Beach for the New Year's holiday. James' parents got to see where James worked and what we do for fun around here. I guess they had a good time or they just want to see more of Riley because they have already booked their tickets for the end of May to come back.
