Jumping Animal Sounds!

Riley loves books and he loves animals. Here's one of his favorites... "Moo, Baa La La La..." He's loved this book since he was really little. But now it's a little more interactive!!

And Riley is learning to jump - he wants to be like his Daddy...

Bay House

I realize I haven't been posting very often this summer. We are having such a fun summer, I think I forget to capture the moments and post them on the blog. Can you believe summer is about half-way over? It's going so fast!

Riley is LOVING all things at the Bay! We so enjoy going to Grasonville, Maryland (Riley's middle name namesake) where Ryan's family has had a house for many years. We get special time with family, on the beach, in the boat, eating crab, and relaxing. Yay for summer!

Time with family...

Boat Rides!

First Time Eating Crab... maybe we'll wait until next year.

We love the beach...

Pirated laughter

Ryan's sister Jenna has been watching Riley twice a week this summer. It's been so great for them to spend time together - and they're having lots of fun... as is seen from this video that she took of the two of them. It warms my heart every time I see it...

Thanks Aunt Jenna...

Domstenfest 2008

We loved getting together with our Domsten family the end of June. It's always such a sweet time and always goes much too quickly. It's so fun to see the kids together...

I love these videos... I don't really know why, they're just so fun...

We love you...

Happy Father's Day

Riley is so lucky to have a Daddy who is so fun, who loves him so much and genuinely enjoys being with him.

We love you, Daddy!

Happy Mother's Day

Mother's Day was special. Riley is such a sweet boy and loves to laugh and hug and give slobbery kisses. I cannot begin to describe the joy and love I feel as a mom...

but this shows just one of the reasons I'm so happy being Riley's mom...

Little Racer

We had fun at the park the other day. Check out our cool dude...

The motorcycle is in sight...



Vrooommm...
