Dallstream Christmas

As soon as we were done opening presents at our house, we loaded up the car and headed to Grandma and Grandpa D's house. Grandma had a full house, and Riley got to play with all of the cousins.

Riley was super excited about his "bike."


Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!

Merry Christmas 2010

OK, ok, it's a few days late, but better late than never... right? Christmas was sooo much fun this year. Riley has finally gotten the hang of opening presents, and seems to love everything he got, to the point of getting upset at the dog when she goes to sniff a toy, "noooo, mine."



Hope everyone had a fun and safe holiday.

Duplo Man

It's so funny, if dad will help him build a long base, this kid will just keep stacking until he is either out of pieces, or its too unstable.

Westhoff Christmas

Last weekend was the 2010 Westhoff Christmas. Riley had lots of fun leading his pawpaw around to play and explore.

Our little peter pan

Riley was a little Peter Pan for Halloween.

He didn't quite know what to do at the first house, but then was a pro.

When we got home, he had to examine his loot.


As a bonus, he then built a giant DVD tower.

October Photo Round-up

It's been a busy, month but I'm not going to try justifying not putting any pictures up, so here goes:

Riley and Grandpa discussing the finer points of pumpkin picking:


Obligatory Pumpkin Patch Picture:


Would you believe this went on for about 20 minutes?



I don't think there are words that describe this:

Time Flies

I can't get over how fast the summer is going.
Riley and Pepper have gotten to an understanding, most of the time. I think it has something to do with the fact that Riley likes to share his goodies with the dog.

This kid and his box. He just likes to sit in there, and has figured out how to hold on to something else so he can climb in. Weird.


And one last picture. Apparently, no one likes to eat alone.
