Riley's First Birthday!

Our cousin Riley celebrated his first birthday in Minnesota last weekend. It was fun to play with him. After seeing Riley run around the house, Mom and Dad are a little worried about us walking! They have it pretty good right now.

Riley didn't know what to do with his teddy bear birthday cake that Grandma made. After a few smacks, he finally realized it tasted good!


Emma's standing on her own! She is quite proud of herself!

There were so many of "our kind" at the party!

It was a fun weekend with cousin Riley!

7 Months Old!

We celebrated 7 months in style! We rocked out with our nanny!

Which way to the beach??


The morning after we were still in a good mood!

7 months is a lot of fun. We can sit all by ourselves without falling over.



We love being outside. We dig holes in the grass...don't tell Dad...he thinks it's the squirrels!

6 Months Old

We caught up to full term babies at our six month doctor visit. Claire was in the 75th percentile for height and 50th for weight. Emma was in the 50th percentile for height and 75th for weight. We're growing strong!

Here we are trying to figure out what Mom and Dad are doing to make us smile!


We are just starting to sit up on our own...still a little wobbly though.

Claire is chewing on everything. Her bottom front teeth popped through on July 15th. Her toes are yummy to chew on.

What's my sister doing??



Chewing on all ten toes??


We're advanced for our age.

We enjoyed our first Doty family reunion the last weekend in July.

Here we are with a few of our third cousins. There were 9 kids under the age of 5 the weekend of the reunion!

Always holding hands.
