Birthday Dinner #2

We had another birthday dinner tonight for Riley Jane with some of our friends. They brought over some really neat gifts. The Sesame Street action figures and books were a big hit and she loved the Black Labrador Retriever sleeping bag with a two Black Lab pillows!! SO COOL!! What a big girl. She is so ready for her first slumber party! We had a big dinner and finished it off with Sesame Street cupcakes. She had been asking for cake ALL DAY- literally since this morning when we bought them. So when it was time to dig in, it was very exciting. She chose- you guessed it- Elmo for herself, Elmo for Mommy also, and Cookie Monster for Hee. After she ate Elmo, she wanted to eat Big Bird too.

Ok it looks like she lays around a lot but that is definitely not the case at all. Anyone who spends any amound of time with her will back me up on that! This was this morning after she woke up watching- you guessed it again- Elmo. OK maybe it was George.

So after I was done cleaning the bathroom this afternoon, I moved on to other tasks and realized my shadow was no where to be found. I went back to the bathroom and this is what I found: Riley Jane cleaning the top of the toliet. So proud.

And this was yesterday. Once again, my shadow was missing so I went to find her. She was laying around in her diaper, reading books to Elmo. Wish I could have gotten a better picture but you know how that goes...once you're spotted the moment's gone.
