Riley enjoys family visits.

Can you believe, we had both Grandma Joan and Grandpa Walter in the house at the same time over Christmas break! Riley loved it.

Helping mommy cook

Riley enjoys helping around the house, especially when it comes time to bake cookies!

But, after all that hard work, it's time for a bath!

Loving her Christmas presents!

Riley has been enjoying her Christmas gifts. It really is amazing to watch her grow and interact with her environment.

She is very good at creating her own little world with the doll house from Auntie Christina and Uncle Lukhbir.

And she has found freedom and mobility with her new car from Grandma and Grandpa Gilligan.

Happy New Years

And a belated Christmas wish to every one, from Riley.

Rainy day in Oakland

The new year has brought us some much needed rain, so Riley and I
decided to do some work in the yard. She is dressed just right in her
boots and hoody. We took the tree out and chopped it up for mulch,
did some gardening, and drove the car around the back yard.
