Riley is 8 mo. Old

Riley turned 8 mo. Old on March 2nd. She is growing up so fast. She is doing great with eating baby food. Her favorite is still oatmeal. She makes noise with each spoonful she eats. She started saying DADA more. She says Dada, baba. She only says mama when she's upset.  Riley is teething. She just got her first bottom tooth and the next bottom tooth is now coming in. She is so cranky with teething.  Riley measures 27" in length and weighs 19.5 lbs. She is not crawling yet, but she army crawls, rolls all over the floor, and pulls herself forward on her belly. She is very determined to get something that she wants. Riley started doing this scream cry when she wants attention.  I'm not sure how to break that. She can hold her bottle and can almost feed herself.  She has developed so much in just a month. Riley loves the bouncer. We just got that out a couple days ago. She loves bouncing and then falls asleep in it. She definitely loves her family. We sure love her too.

Holly got her ears pierced

Holly wanted, as her birthday present from mom and dad, to get her ears pierced. I took her down to a local salon where they do piercing on Saturday February 9th. I told Holly what to expect. She was very brave. She got nervous right before, but still wanted to do it. The ladies that did it were great. Holly picked out gold hearts. She's been doing good keeping them clean.

Holly is 9 now

I haven't had a chance to post Holly 's Birthday.  Holly turned 9 on friday February 8th. Since her birthday was on a Friday I told Holly she could do a late night with 3 of her best friends.  She was very excited about it all week long. That night we made homeade pizzas for dinner, took everyone to Kiwi Loco so Holly could get her free Birthday yogurt, opened presents, and watched a movie. Then I took Holly's friends home about 10pm. Holly had a great birthday celebrating with family and her friends.
