...:::* Riley Joanna ~ 5 MONTHS OLD *:::...

. July 27, 2013 .

It's been 5 MONTHS since our precious baby girl, Riley Joanna, joined our lives


Memories & Milestones:
 
MONTH 5 ( June 27- July 27)
 
- first trip to Nepal 
- your brother still loves when your awake and he can say " she lookin at you!" :)
- getting good at playing on your belly all by yourself and being content. 
- tried out your exersaucer for the first time. It was a hit with you and your brother. 
- always so pleasant with everyone and smiling.
- great traveler!!! 
- drool drool drool and chew chew chew. Thinking maybe a tooth is popping through but no sighting yet. 
- you grab a hold of everything. Especially with your feet. It's hilarious
- met Grammy for the first time:) Lots of cuddles, snuggles, hugs, kisses, and forever memories!
-so photogenic :)
- first dance ... and it was with your big brother - in the kitchen - to song "Tonight Tonight" by Hot Chele Rae... Grammy caught it on video~ you two are quite the pair! And you always put a smile on Mama's face!

 Sweet daughter of ours, Riley Jo~

I had a blast capturing these photos of your adorable self.
I couldn't get over how incredible your eyes sparkled, how genuine that smile of your is, and how unbelievably BEAUTIFUL you are!
Your Papa and I (and your big brother) adore every little detail about YOU.
Makes me grateful for the way our Creator so perfectly designed and formed you.

This month reminds me to pray that your beauty will continue on throughout the years of your life.
That "BEAUTIFUL" would be a common phrase for how people will describe you in the future as you grow and embark down the paths of life....
but NOT because of those precious eyes, that heart capturing smile, or that incredible way you radiate.
No- our prayer is that your BEAUTY would radiate from WITHIN...
That God would be the Lord of your heart and thus HIS BEAUTY would shine forth from inside of you...
And that this BEAUTY would burst forth and touch many lives and that you would pour it out to those you come in contact with.
TRUE BEAUTY.
Such that can only be found IN HIM!





















May you FOREVER be BEAUTIFUL little girl.

~ All Our Love~
Mama & Papa
