I took advantage of my holiday vacation to spend a lot of time with my granddaughter Riesa. I baby sat her just about every day during my time off. We spent lots of time playing and singing. Ok I did\u00a0most of the singing, and she did most of the playing.<\/p>\n

Riesa received a car seat cover as a Christmas present and she looks so cuddly all zipped up.<\/p>\n
