So, it's January 2010, and I'm a few months behind on blogging - so the family has reminded me! I wish I had some cool reason why I've fallen behind, but life just got hectic with football season and the holidays, and he we are months later with just a few pictures to share.
This past fall, we managed to make quite a few MSU football games, travelled to Columbus and Starkville for the Thanksgiving festivities, and Chris and I attended the Egg Bowl, which was a great win. The grandparents haven't said no yet to a babysitting opportunity, which allows us to enjoy a game. We did take Riley to her first game this fall, Florida, but she's not quite ready to be contained in a stadium seat. She would rather be on the field running along with the players!
Here she is running free in Granny Ann's yard on Egg Bowl game day!
The yearly Callahan family picture which was distributed by mom with her yearly Christmas card mail-out in December. It has been a family tradition to have our picture made on Thanksgiving weekend. 
Riley is enjoying her first true Thanksgiving meal at her GG's (last year doesn't count, as she was just beginning baby food!) I'm not sure about other parents out there, but my kid eats A LOT! She polished off a plate that most adults would eat, and never missed a beat. We are so lucky that she isn't a picky eater, but we haven't figured out where she's putting it!
Riley has no fears. Heights, pets, people, noises, nothing bothers her, except the possible risk of missing a meal. But she is best friends with Sharpie, Chris' parents black lab, and he loves her equally. When we arrive, he greets her at the car door, walks us to the front door, and would sleep at the floor of her crib if he was allowed. But his new found love is to have Riley play with his mouth and teeth, and she just giggles to get to tickle his tongue! They were loving the pretty weather and playing outside together at Thanksgiving.
Pretty wildflowers!
