Favorite Color: Pink, purple and blue
Favorite type of Clothes: Stretchy pants, soft shirts (The other day she asked me if I would stop buying her jeans because they were uncomfortable and hard to pull on and off at daycare when she has to go potty! So I went and got her several pair of stretchy pants and the way she reacted to them you would have thought it was some great toy she had been wanting.)
Clothes Size: This is a tough one. She's right inbetween a size 2T and 3T. If anyone is thinking of buying her clothes for Christmas, go ahead and get a 3T.
Shoe Size: Size 8. And boy does she love shoes! All shoes!
Favorite toys: Puzzles. Any art supplies, such as markers, paint. Baby dolls. Trains, cars. Dress-up items, jewelery, games, balls, Lightening McQueen, Thomas the Train, Little People.
Favorite Food: Pizza with pineapple, crackers and apple with brie (That's right; Jason and I bought some brie for us one evening to eat after she went to bed. She insisted on having some and practically ate the whole thing of brie. Now she asks for it all the time.) Fruit, fish sticks.
Favorite Drink: Chocolate milk
Favorite Read: She loves fairytales right now: Three Little Pigs, anything along those lines.
Favorite Cartoons: Scooby Doo, Tom and Jerry, Dora the Explorer, Diego.
Favorite Movie: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, (She drives us crazy with this movie!!) Scooby Doo movie, The Little Mermaid, and always her favorite, Cars.
Favorite Disney Character: Lightening McQueen and Ariel.
Favorite Music: Riley is just now getting to where she really enjoys music. I remember Eric had a passion for music right from the beginning. She's always singing some little tune and loves to dance.
General Interests: Riley is still very active. Her all-time favorite is just going to the park, anything to do with being outside. Her favorite friend is a little girl named Anju and another little girl named Lauren. She has a real love/hate relationship with a little boy named Eli. Oh, he's such a cutie, though. (Thought I better write that in here since you never know what the future holds, right?) One minute she's a real girly-girl, then the next she's as crazy as any little boy and absolutely loves playing with cars, trucks, trains, et cetera. She will ask you "why" about a hundred times, until you've gone in a complete circle with something and you've completely run out of answers. She's very curious about everything and when you're trying to explain something, you can tell she's really trying to figure it out. When I get her dressed in the morning, she'll go over to Jason with her hands on her hips sometimes and say, "Do you like me now?" And she is constantly rhyming. She's always rhyming her words, which is pretty funny.

Fun Times!
Pumpkin Time

Funny Blurbs
Today I was asking Riley to do something and she said, "You're bugging my chops, mom." (sorta like busting my chops, I suppose.)
Riley loves grapes. Jason accidentally bought some that had seeds in them this last time. Today I went through the grapes to get the seeds out. I then, after about a half hour, gave a big bowl of grapes to Riley. At the end she found a seed in one of her grapes and said, Mom, I found a seed. You need to be more careful; I could've choked."

Handygirl
I'm not really sure why, but Riley loves hammers, drills, screwdrivers, et cetera. She is always asking me to let her use the hammer to "fix" something - yeah, sure!
Lil' Dancers!
The kids at the wedding were a wild bunch! Riley loved this little boy that was behind her - all the girls did!
Future Bride?
We went to a beautiful wedding of my cousins and had a great time. I wanted to show her wedding dress, as I thought it was so unusual with the blue that runs down the back. It was beautiful and very fitting for her. It was so cute because at the end of the ceremony, they put on sunglasses and danced their way down the isle! That's Shannah! Another great thing at the wedding were these little "Future Bride" bags. They were filled with the cutest toys and Riley loved it! We had a great time at the ceremony and Riley got in a little dancing, as did Jason and I - first time since our honeymoon!
Elephant in the Room!
Riley makes such cute things at daycare. Every day she brings home projects and is usually wearing some animal hat. In her preschool she is on the letter "F." Every two weeks they do a different letter of the alphabet. This is an elephant hat that she made for the letter-E week. Cracks me up!

Aauugh, She's so Sweet!
The other day Riley and I were grocery shopping. She had some money and dropped it on the floor. Riley says, "I'm sorry, Mom, I dropped my money. Please, could you pick it up?" A lady overheard this and stopped and was gushing at what a sweet girl she was to say sorry like that. As she was going on and on, I was picking up the money for Riley. As the lady was still there, I handed the money over to Riley. She wrinkled her face up in this awful little squishy face and said in a not-so-sweet voice, "Now, give me my money!!" Ugh, the lady looked a little uncomfortable at this point and just walked off!!! Oh, Riley, couldn't you have just kept it up for two minutes longer?

Funny Blurbs!
Riley says hilarious things every day. I thought I would blog one day of "silly comments."
1. Jason was going to run after dinner and was on his way in the kitchen for seconds. I reminded Jason that since he needed to run he might want to think about seconds! Riley, with her body puffed up and head down, with eyebrows furled up, said, "Don't tell my daddy not to eat; he needs his energy!"
2. "Mommy, I forgot what I was going to say. What was I going to say?" I reply, "I don't know, Riley. To which she replies, very frustrated, "No, mom, what was I going to say? I don't remember. What was I going to say! TELL ME WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY!!" We must have went round and round with this forever, as I am trying to convince her that I really had no idea what she was going to say!

Go Cougs!
What a great cougs game! Riley was a very faithful chearleader! She got a kick out of being able to yell as loud as she wanted without hearing, "Inside voice!!" And trust me, she took advantage! I absolutely love going to football games and hope we can get to a Seahawk's game. Looks like they're doing good this year so it might be hard to get tickets.
