Queen Riley

It has been a very memorable couple of days for Little Miss Riley. Yesterday there was a golf tournament to benefit her wonderful daycare. The daycare director asked if I would bring Riley to the Press event for some pictures. They local news interviewed me and Riley and we were TV stars last night. We recorded it and watched our 30 second clip several times. She was amazed to see herself on TV. As if being a "Television star" weren't enough, today is Fat Tuesday(MARDI GRAS, for those of you not familiar with Louisiana)and there was a parade at daycare. Riley was Queen of her class, she even had a court with Prince and Princess and a handsome little King. Here are some pictures from her reign as Queen.

Let it snow

A rare occurrence in Louisiana, we actually got snow. Real snow and it stuck, for a little while anyway. Here are some pictures of Riley enjoying the winter weather.

Wordless Wednesday(Heart of Geauxld! )

Wordless Wednesday(first dance class)

Dance, Dance!

I am so happy to report that on Wednesday Riley is starting dance class. Pre-ballet and tap to be specific. I couldn't be more excited. Today, with the help of Nonna, we went shopping and are all ready for class to start. I must admit when I saw the pink leather ballet shoes, so tiny and perfect, I teared up. My tiny sweet baby has grown so fast and is now on her way to becoming quite a little lady. I'm so proud of her. She continues to amaze me! I'm sure there will be many posts as we start out on this journey, this will be the first group activity/sport Riley has been involved in and I'm nervous and excited! Look for many pics and maybe some videos of my baby ballerina. Here she is modeling her new dance clothes and shoes. The ballet shoes couldn't be any cuter, but Riley is absolutely in love with the tap shoes and the noise they make(especially on our wood floors!)
