Baby's first plane ride

Riley went on her very first plane ride on September 13th. She did very well and seemed to like it. She got a little fussy at times, but that was to be expected. Of course, once I told her we were headed to the "happiest place on earth where all your dreams come true" she cheered up a bit. We were also on a straight flight to Orlando and surrounded by a ton of fussy kids. Only they were much older and clearly BIG babies. My child won't be like that, right?? We went to Disney World for 7 days and she had a great time. She won't remember any of it.....but, that's OK. I took 1,000 pictures to remember the event. More of those to follow soon.

Go Chiefs!

Daddy would not be happy unless his little girl supported his team. So, she now has Chiefs gear to support her "favorite" team.

Riley has made more milestone accomplishments. She is pulling herself up into a standing position and rolling over from laying down and taking off. Up until now she has been stuck on her back when we lay her down because who would want to willing roll onto their stomach? Not this baby. She has gone to great lengths to avoid her belly. However, now she has found a new way to get away from Mommy and get into everything she possibly can by rolling from her back to her belly and crawling to her desired destination. She is also pulling her self up into a standing position. She is trying to climb the stairs too. It's mass ciaos at our house!! All hell has broken loose!

10 months old!

I can't believe it! She is 10 months old and clearly wearing the pants in the family. She's wearing them in the wrong place, but none the less, she the one in charge.

Brown at work

Dirty ears are NOT acceptable in our house. Charlie Brown cleans Callie's ears every day. It's pretty disgusting! Callie used to be shy about it and would shake Brown off once we caught her getting a cleaning. Now she basically could care less who sees. It feels too good to her and she no longer gets ear infections. You can almost see the smile on Cal's face. Now, if she would only return the favor to Brown maybe her ear infections would go away. However, Callie refuses to even consider it. As you can see from above, Riley gets an ear inspection several times a day from Brown. Can't be to careful!

Being adorable is hard work

This NEVER happens! Riley is getting really good about going to sleep in her crib by herself, but NEVER just on her own sitting in a high chair. It is clearly very difficult keeping up with her schedule of crawling, smiling, squealing, and getting into everything she can get her hands on. Sometimes she has to crash.

Mommy and baby

Here is a rare picture of Riley and myself. I can't stand to have my picture taken anymore, so it's not that often that you'll see this. I actually don't hate this one. I used to be just like Riley....a picture junkie. I loved being in pictures. No more! I don't know what happen, but now I can't stand to be in the picture.

Bath time is a PARTY!

Riley loves bath time! Nothing makes her happy like playin' in the tub. She could stay in there all night. We usually let her play until the water gets cold or until she shrivels up like a prune.
