Happy Birthday, Gram!!

Today is Gram's actual birthday - Happy Birthday, Gram! Before Papa Jim took her out for lunch and a movie, she came over to watch Riley and Colter for a couple hours so I could go to the gym and run some errands. Wasn't it nice of her to spend her birthday morning helping us?

Here she is "visiting" with Riley. Those two could talk for hours. The topics of conversation are quite varied: shoe shopping, tea parties, etc. While Riley isn't actually using words, she does lock eyes and goo and coo for a long time. It's actually quite funny. Colter has just started the cutest habit. He loves to cling to are shirts when we're holding him. He's also giggling more often, including in the car when Riley is crying. I'm telling myself he's not aware enough to be laughing at her yet. It must be the monkey mirror that's so amusing.
I've gotten so I really love the mornings. Both babies are so happy and excited to be up and playing, that there's lots of smiling and cooing from each of them.
