Adults

The family was gone on a trip, so it was time for us to step up to our role as adults.

This is the face she made when we told her Dad and I
were going to try to do everything Mimi and Papa do

We are very blessed typically with meals and cleaning, because the family does so much of it already. This was my opportunity to try out being a 'real' stay at home mom, juggling chores, food and baby.

I love her I-just-woke-up stare

...and mostly she enjoys demolishing them.

On Sunday we went over to Grandma and Grandpa W's. We really enjoyed talking to them about Grandpa's mission, extending family and eating pie (I think Riley ate half of mine-I'm telling you, she is a food pirate!)

Grandma W dropped off some apricots the next day. Riley was in apricot heaven.

Mimi got Riley these bubbles that are made of goopy stuff rather than your typical water and soap solution. I was enjoying them a little too much...

A bucket of water and a popsicle on the deck. This girl couldn't be happier.

We had some old bread we needed to get rid of, so we decided to bring it to the ducks at a nearby park. It was a fun idea and Riley was enthralled by the little waddling wonders. But it turned out kind of treacherous as well. There were some big old ducks and geese that would hiss and peck at your pants if you didn't give up your goods! And we only brought about two slices... so we had to run for our lives a bit.
