Baby Animal Days

This year we went to Baby Animal Days with our good friends, Stephanie & Harli. It was a less hectic day there, so the girls got to hold all the animals, catch a train-ride & a hay-ride. They were so cute together. I was lovin' Harli's cool shades.

"hello friend" ~ Sweet!

I love my baby

This sweet girl just brings a smile to my face every day. She is such a joy. I love having a baby that wants to snuggle. There's nothing better! She's growing so fast ~ sometimes it makes me really sad, although I'm loving every minute of it!!

My big 1-year old


She actually found Dave's baseball bat and picked it up all by herself. That's heavy!!

Haa haaa ~ she fell asleep in her car-seat w/the blanket over her and it just reminded me of the wicked witch from Wizard of Oz (when the house fell on her)!

Quick Visit with Kensi

My friend, Kensi, stopped by to see us on her way moving out of state. I finally got to meet her husband, Jimmy, and see her adorable baby, Jae! Don't you just wanna pinch those cheeks!! He's such a cutie. I wish you guys much luck in your new endeavors, Kens & Jimmy ~ I'm so glad you stopped by!

Breanna's 1st B-day Party!!

My baby Bree turned 1 this last month. We had a family party for her at our house a couple weeks ago. It was lots of fun. We had it out in the backyard. Dave put a volleyball net in and we all played a few games. Then we grilled hamburgers and hot dogs. The kiddos played "find the pacifiers" in the sandbox, musical chairs, and had a relay race w/a "baby" theme. It was pretty funny. Everyone had a good time although it was a little crazy!

My poor baby ~ so tired (from all the fun)!

All the Rileys (Mom, Tam, Bill, Robyn & Richard) ~ nice bite, Tam!

Bree ~ not sure what she thinks of pineapple

Brooke & the kiddos picnicing on the blanket

"What you lookin' at!" ~ j/k. She was scarfing down her potato salad

Breanna's photo cake ~ yay! It turned out cute!!

Baby's little personal cake to demolish & extra cupcakes. Sorry ~ I love cake!!

My birthday girl

Not sure what to think about the cake ~ silly girl

She got used to the idea pretty quickly though!

Presents!!

Riding her new pony toy ~ so fun!

Visit with Jordo

Jordan stayed with us, after Breanna's b-day party, for a few days. It was really nice having a chance to relax & catch up. He played a couple rounds of frisbee golf with Dave. We went for a hike in Ogden one day, then had lunch at Rainbow Gardens. It was a nice visit although too short for me! But luckily he'll be back out this summer.

Dave & the girls, on our hike

Sorry I had to put this picture in (although it's repetative) ~ I just thought it was too cute of Addie's little baby body ~ haa haaa! She's so darn cute.
