A year in pictures - 2009

I still cannot believe that this year is coming to a close. Well not just the year, the decade too! It's weird to think that at the beginning of this year I was a mother to a nearly 5 month old, and now I am the mother to a walking, talking, dancing, 16 month old - crazy!! I wanted to take a moment and look at a year in pictures of Little Miss Riley...

January 2009 - 5 months old
We used to call her "toops" because of the toupee of hair that sat on top of her head!!

February 2009 - 6 months old
Riley was baptized and celebrated her very 1st Valentine's Day on the same day

March 2009 - 7 months old
Springtime was a favorite! Swings and walks at the park were always fun.

April 2009 - 8 months old
Riley celebrated her 1st Easter and mommy and daddy celebrated their 2nd Anniversary

May 2009 - 9 months old
Riley celebrated her 1st Memorial Day and Mother's Day. She also helped celebrate mommy's 29th birthday by learning to crawl.

June 2009 - 10 months old
By June she was a crawling machine. She also helped daddy celebrate his birthday and his 1st Father's Day.

July 2009 - 11 months old
Riley was eating mostly table food and enjoying almost everything she tried.

August 2009 - Happy 1st Birthday Riley Paige!!!!
Riley learned the art of walking this month (and she has been on the go ever since)!

September 2009 - 13 months old
Riley doesn't stop walking, talking or dancing for a minute - she has a ton of energy and mommy and daddy are exhausted!!

October 2009 - 14 months old
Riley enjoyed all of the fun fall activities which included apple and pumpkin picking. We had a very successful girl's weekend and Riley celebrated her 2nd Halloween as a kitty cat.

November 2009 - 15 months old
Riley celebrated her 2nd Thanksgiving and helped mommy and daddy decorate for Christmas. It was this month that Riley truly brushed up on and showed off her comedic chops...she is hilarious!!

December 2009 - 16 months old
Riley celebrated and enjoyed her 2nd Christmas. She loved opening presents and spending time with some family. She is more active than ever now (and mommy and daddy are more tired than ever)!

I can't help but say that the Clark Family had a wonderful year. We hope that 2010 brings us even more health and happiness and we hope the same for all of you out there!!

Happy New Year!!
