How do you party with a sick, sneezy 2-year-old? Yes, Riley and Joe are on their snotteenth cold this year so inviting all her little friends over was out of the question - a crying shame because Riley LOVES the other babies. Well, we managed to have a pretty good day regardless. I know because today Riley needed at nap by 10:30 - still recovering I guess!
 |
| The first batch of cupcakes. I had oven issues...The second batch was the delicious. |
 |
| A little backyard swimming. |
 |
| Sidewalk Chalking |
 |
| Riley "helping" in the kitchen. |
 |
| Angie's gift was a stroke of genius - Riley has hardly put her Charlie Brown doll down since she opened it! |
 |
| Then we went to Dave's last softball game of the season, and along came Charlie Brown and her new picnic basket from Grandma. |
 |
| And then she found some friends to play in the dirt with. |
After baths and after Joe was asleep, we snuggled on the couch and watched Finding Nemo. Riley, you are sooo lucky to have us! :) And we are so lucky to have you. The world changed when you came. For instance, there are a lot more diapers in my days and stretchmarks on my hips. But also far more love and laughter and beauty than ever before. My heart is full. I love your sticky kisses and watching you grow - you are going to do amazing things.
