Gift from Gavin

Last Christmas, when I was still 'newly' pregnant (about 10 weeks I guess), Gavin picked out a little gift for 'Hamm.'  A cute little cow onesie that he picked all by himself!  Riley is finally big enough to wear it now.  Yay!

More visitors!

A couple weeks ago, Jackie called us to let us know she found a great deal on plane tickets and was heading back down for another visit and bringing Jarrod's grandma with her to meet Riley.  It was a short visit, but Gavin always loves any time he gets to see family (read: gets spoiled!) and it was great for Riley to meet her great-grandma.  Here are some pics from their visit.
