Riley-you are so full of life and you make the funniest faces and gestures everyday. When something is super funny to you or you are just trying to keep up with the big people's version of funny you slap your knee and throw your head back to laugh. You sign 'more' for everything from wanting us to tickle you more, wanting to say more prayers, you sign 'more' for a bigger push on the swings and you sign 'more' when we make you laugh, you have taken signing 'more' to a whole new level beyond 'more' food. You crack us up when we see you signing more at the funniest times.
You laugh as you try to ride Deuce and you think it's hilarious when he licks and nips at you, unless you are tired then it's just not at all funny. You also snuggle with Deuce almost every morning. Cute, but a very hairy endeavor that drives Mommy nutso!
You are such a lover and sensitive little boy. You give lots of hugs and kisses and rub our backs when you can tell we are sad or tired.
You are so excited for your party and you throw your arms up and say "two" while pointing to yourself and exclaiming "woo hoo."
You talk all the time and we try to understand what your saying but most of the time you are pulling us over to what you mean. When we are out driving and you see a black car it's always "Daddy's Dar", if it's silver it's "Kaydee's Dar" and if it's a truck it's always "Mommy's Dar."
When we are pulling up to our house you are chanting to yourself "mommy house, daddy house, mommy house, daddy house, deuce house, mommy house", and then you point to yourself and say house because you have no idea how to say Riley and haven't even attempted it.
You love to help mommy bake and Daddy cook. You pour flour into the bowls, noodles into the pan and Daddy let's you help stir while Mommy let's you lick the mixers. Most of the time though you are content to sit on the counters and watch what is going on though.
While we were at Costco this weekend we told you it was time to go home and you grabbed my cell phone and were trying to call Nana and Papa-apparently you wanted them to save you. When you couldn't dial out you looked at me with defeat in your eyes, held up the cell and whispered 'Mommy, Nana and Papa" and then signed 'please.' We went home anyways and you violently shook your head no and wailed "no house, no house." It just made us snicker at how funny and perceptive you are because if Nana and Papa were there they probably would have taken you home with them and then you wouldn't have had to spend another Saturday night with Mommy and Daddy ; )
You love to play with your toys and just by us adding a mattress to the livingroom from your new big boy bed you entertained yourself for hours. You are inquisitive and very thoughtful. You watch from a distance and then you jump in and have a blast.
Mommy took you to the Little Gym last week for a fun celebration and the 2-year-old and under room was of no interest to you, you watched the big kids playing and with-in minutes were attempting sommersaults, making baskets and running around joyously. You even asked very nicely to have your face painted and you thanked the young lady afterwards. You LOVE having your face painted! "ball mommy, ball!"
We find you singing to yourself a special song "mommydaddydaddymommydeuceydaddymommmydaddy" in a quiet, sweet little voice as you play.
Basically, you are the cutest thing we have ever seen and you make us smile and laugh everyday. Love you Little Man and we can't wait to see what this year holds for you!
