WE'RE ONE!!


Holy cow we are 1!!!! I never thought this day would come, but it has and we are loving every minute of it!! She celebrated her birthday last week (26th) by enjoying some homemade sugar cookies with her friends at school. She LOVED it!! It was her first taste at sugar/sweets.
Then that evening we had dinner at home. Riley LOVES spaghetti-o's, but we are not fond of giving it to her due to the messiness it creates!! But, since it was her special day we caved and put her in an old shirt and let her dig in. She ended up looking like an Umpa-Lumpa from Willy Wonka!! She went straight to the tub afterwards!

This past Saturday we celebrated with some friends and family. We had a packed house and I think it was a bit overwhelming for her. She ended up sleeping through a lot of it! But she got the most important parts in.....cake and presents!! She was really sad her friend Madeline could not make it, but hopes she is feeling better and she is settling in to her new house =)

Riley is fully walking now and got herself a new set of walking shoes!! She is not a fan of them, she would rather be bare-foot. But, she needs them to make sure she doesn't be bow-legged. On Sunday we took her new wagon for a little spin areound the neighborhood and she loved it!!
We went on Monday to the doctors and Dr. Cross said she is PERFECT!! (Which we knew already!!)
Riley's stats are now:
Weight: 22.14 (79%)
Height: 30.5 (90%)

Riley got 3 shots and did as well as expected....however, once she got up from her afternoon nap she was not so happy. A little Tylenol and she was ok. She is now on whole milk and seems to be loving it. We are loving this age, she is a little sponge and taking everything in!!
