Rayden's Bestest Buddy







Rayden sure loves her Uncle Alan! (or Ayah as she calls him) Alan was laying on the floor reading his magazine the other night which made him fair game!! She was having a good ole time reading his magazine with him, pointing out things he should buy and rubbing his head :) Then she decided that she was going to get one of her books and read right along with him!! They are bestest buds!


New Toy???





Rayden got a new vacuum....the nice thing about this one is that is actually works!!!! I don't think it is considered child labor when they love to do it SO much.....hahaha!! She has a blast vacuuming everywhere.

Silly Monkey





For awhile now Rayden has been "trying" to put on her own clothes. The majority of the time she just ends up with them on top of her head or on her arms!!

Visit to Klamath



We headed over to Klamath this weekend to help Kathy (or grandmoo) move into her new house!!! Rayden had fun "helping" and had a great visit with everyone. Here are a few pictures of her and grandma spending some time together.....they had so much fun!!

Moving Truck



Rayden loved the moving truck and all of the space in it....but she really loved the ramp that went into the moving truck....up and down and up and down she went!! She also liked to yell and sing inside the truck because her voice would echo!! It was hard to keep her out of the way later when it was getting loaded.

Grandmoo's New House





So here is Rayden playing around at Grandmoo's new house. She had a lot of fun there because there was a lot of room to run around everywhere and she loved to play outside on the porch and in the yard! What a great house!!!! The one picture I got of Rayden inside was when she was looking out the window because she wanted to go back outside!

Out for a Walk




Ahhhh it was such a beautiful day today so Rayden and I decided to take a walk this afternoon. She really loves going for walks and discovers new things every time. She has to point out everything she sees and she says what it is. It is a good learning experience for her and plus we get to get out in the beautiful sunshine!! She did get mad when we got back home though because she did not want the walk to be over!! What a great walk we had!!

A Day at the Park




Yesterday we took a little trip to the park!! Rayden had a great time and loved to go on all of the different slides! This year she doesn't like the swings though like she did last year. It was so nice to be able to play outside and not be freezing cold!!

More Boo Boo's for Rayden



So when Rayden was at the park yesterday her and a little girl were having a blast together. They decided to start a game of chase and Rayden ran after her happy as can be. Well being the uncoordinated girl that she is....Rayden tripped and fell onto an asphalt walkway. She ended up splitting her lip again in the same place she did on Halloween, had a bloody nose, a few scratches on her cheek and a little road rash on her nose! She is doing fine though and about 5 minutes after it happened she just wanted to go play again....she is a tough cookie!

Our Little Saver




One of the things Rayden loves to do is put money in her piggy bank! After she finishes with all the coins that were given to her she asks everyone around for more!!! She has filled up two piggy banks already and is working on this one.....she is going to have more money than any of us!!!! She likes to gives hugs and kisses to her piggy too!

New Bikes





Over to Grants Pass we went this weekend for Renée's baby shower and to visit with everyone! Granddad Larry and Grandma Becky were there and they brought Rayden and Rayna new matching tricycles!!!! The girls were having a great time on them....Rayden can almost reach the peddles!! (We figured out that the seat is adjustable so after that is done she probably can) Now they both have to learn how to peddle them and steer them. They are too cute!! Thank-you so much for the new bike grandpa and grandma!

Glasses, glasses and more glasses





Rayden LOVES glasses right now. Here are a few pictures of her putting her sunglasses on and showing all of us! She even got Papa to participate in her fun!!

Exersaucer



Rayden has an exersaucer over at grandma and papa's house that she used to play in when she was younger....it got folded up and put in a different room. She learned that she can climb into it and curl her legs up and play with all of the fun stuff on it still. We think she might actually play with it more now than she did before!!

More Imagination and Discovery!








Today we went to play at Imagination and Discovery again!! This time Daddy and Auntie Shawna and all the kids came with us!! Rayden and all the kids had so so much fun.....how can you not at this place??? Here are just a few pictures of them enjoying their time there. It is so hard to get pictures there because the kids are so busy running all over the place because there is SO much to do!
