This month is so busy for us! Ella Kate's best buddy Emery had her birthday last weekend and it was so much fun! It was at a neighborhood park and it was a beautiful day! Ella Kate had so much fun, my camera was acting up so I was only able to get a few pics-






Then yesterday was Scott's birthday, we had pizza and cake and Ella Kate kept telling her Daddy "happy Birthday" over and over! But she most enjoyed the cake!!!

We also had an informal baptism yesterday evening for Riley. We will do a formal ceremony during Mass in May, but wanted to have her baptized before her surgery on 2/23. Katie and Russell will share Godparent duties with Erin, Riley is so lucky to have them all in her life! Erin was with us yesterday for the small ceremony. It was very nice and Riley slept through it all, she only cried a little when the water was poured over her head. Of course, Ella Kate was all over the place and kept saying she wanted her hair washed too, so funny! Here are a few pics from yesterday-
