Every day is a photo shoot....

With Nathan in Africa, every day is a photo shoot around here. I'm constantly snapping shots of the kids to send to him. I try to do it mostly in the evening so when Nathan gets up the next morning, he has lots of pictures of the kiddos and me to greet him. I think that's a pretty great way to start your day when you're 7,645 miles away from home.

 

Yes, Riley is actually hanging on to the oven door.
No, the oven and the stove were NOT on.
Lesson: Move my food prep station elsewhere...

Super fun Halloween crazy eyes!
Riley had to make sure she was doing what Owen was doing. =)

The Pink Stool

Riley has been fighting Owen for the stool at the bathroom counter for a while, so I finally got one for her. She was so excited! She carried it all over the house. (Letting her take it out of the bathroom was the only way I could get her OUT of the bathroom without a dramatic tantrum.) She would set it down, sit on it for a few seconds, then pick it up with a little grunt and head to the new location. It was hilarious! And lots of fun!
