It's the most wonderful time of the year.

Christmas is upon us! Behold...

It's Rudolph the Red-Nosed Riley!



We're really not sure what she's doing here. Trying out new facial expressions I guess. It sure looks like she's posing for the camera, though, huh? Oh, for those that are familiar with Friends... doesn't Riley's smile remind you of Chandler's during the episode he and Monica were trying to get their portrait taken?



Here's our tree, with presents starting to accumulate. There is one present under there now (not pictured) that has a silver bow that Riley is determined to get. We're starting to teach her the word 'No.' Aahh... it's just beginning.



Every day Riley gets to choose a new item to go up on the Advent calendar. (Pay no attention to the "coordinated" outfit Riley is wearing... hmmm... I wonder who dressed her that day.) We'll have to get a picture taken when the tree is all completed.
