Pumpkin Carving

Tonight we went to Grandma and Papa's house to carve our pumpkin. Ty did a really great job on ours! Riley looked so cute in this little outfit and she even wore the little scarf on her head, so there's hope that she'll wear the most important part of her halloween costume this week. (I'm not revealing what it is just yet.) She's walking all over the place now. She's even trying to run some. She's so cute- she loves it when I chase her. She's also playing peek-a-boo tons. Anything she can get her hands on, she hides behind and we play. She's been very good about brushing her teeth and she has the best toothy grin! Miss Riley just amazes me every day. She's really smart and just such a doll! We couldn't be more blessed!

Apple Annie's

Yesterday, we went with Grandma, Papa and Aunt Beth to Apple Annie's Orchard. We had a great time!Riley was so cute in the pumpkin patch. The weather was perfect and the ice cream and pie was great!
Riley's really getting the hang of walking now and she's very proud of herself. We're pretty proud of her, too.

FIRST STEPS!!

It's official- Riley's walking! Okay, so not far distances or anything, but she did take her first steps today and we've been practicing. Did I have the video camera or the camera? No, I'm not that organized of a mom, but I'll get some pics of it. She's tired now and a little fussy, so I don't want to push her. Maybe tomorrow I'll get some pictures of her.
In the meantime, OG, Riley and I went to the zoo today. The weather was perfect and we had a great time. We even fed the giraffes! Riley really liked them, the lion (she even said "Cat!" when she saw it) and the parrots.
Ty's birthday was last week, so there are some pics of his party here, too. The birthday cake I made for him melted a little bit and looks rather pathetic, but it was made with love.
On Ty's birthday we went to a U of A football game, so I got a picture of Riley in her cheerleader outfit with Wilma. We tried for one with Wilbur, but she screamed when he held her and I felt like the worst mom in the world, so I had to quickly rush in and save her!
One more thing- OU beat tEXas. Boomer Sooner, Baby!
