Riley is 2!!!!!



Riley turned two a week ago and we had her party today. She has been really into Tinkerbell so we had a Tinkerbell themed pizza party. She had a great time playing with her cousins and showing them her dance moves. She was so busy playing she almost didn't want to stop to blow out her candles but finally gave in! Since she is not a big cake eater I made her favorite, a huge Sugar Cookie! She has been practicing blowing out the candles for a few months and is pretty good at it. Her Aunt Briana and Uncle Todd gave her a baby doll that can take a bath with her and she did not let go of it from the time we opened the box until she basically passed out from exhaustion for her nap! But when she woke up it was right back to the baby. We got her a little cradle for her baby and all night she has been rocking and singing to it and kissing it night night! She is too cute and growing way too fast.

Paul is in his second semester at Utah State and is enjoying being in school but I don't think that he is enjoying the homework! We are so proud of him. He is working so hard. Riley and I are working on her talking. She learns new words everyday and sometimes surprises me how much she picks up. Her new favorite movie is Toy Story so she is saying Buzz and Woody and other little cute things from the movie. She is doing well with learning her animal sounds and is quite the little singer. I hear her so many times in her room singing little songs to herself and her baby dolls. She definitely keeps me on my toes and keeps me laughing!
