Fairytale Town, Part one

Today we decided to do something fun for Riley, knowing I won't be free for a little while to do things with her (especially that involve leaving the house and giving her full attention), we went to Fairytale Town.

We got her a "magic key" that will play music or audio stories at each of the attractions. Here Riley tries putting it into the machine at the Crooked Mile.

Dad took Riley on the Crooked Mile and the many slides, while I enjoyed taking photos, bench-warming and waiting at the bottom of the slides to catch her.

Just Lounging

We found Riley lounging in the infant car seat (that is waiting to be installed in our car for little sister), that was stuck in the corner of our living room.

She thought it would make the perfect recliner and decided to hang out for awhile with her feet up on the fireplace, just relaxing.

Sadly, her exit out of the car seat was not so graceful and involved a few rolls on the floor. We're wondering if this means she'd like her own, mitt-sized recliner?!

Mitt Van Winkle

I can't stand how cute she is when she's sleeping, and always want a photo but the light is always really dim and I'm always afraid that I'll wake her up with the camera.

Seeing her, butt-in-the-air and hugging her stuffed tiger, "tiger beak", I just had to try taking a couple pics in the low light.

Life of the Artist

Riley has been pursuing her talents as an artist, both busy and intent on putting colors and lines on paper. She also helped by putting away all 8 of the crayons before we moved on to bath time. What a helpful Mitt!
