Time to Catch up...

So Riley has been banned from electronics until she can learn the listen the first time she is asked/given instruction and so Kyle had paused a movie we were watching because she was in the room and she threw a fit and said "I WANT TO WATCH THAT! It's boring and I love it!" I have been slacking on blogging lately and haven't been documenting enough so I'll give a quick breakdown of Miss Riley and Bella. Riley is going through a stage of wanting to be in control of everything and demands to wear a dress or skirt everyday even if it's freezing cold outside. She still walks on her toes a majority of the time and continues to have her sassy big personality. Bella is FINALLY walking...she falls quite a bit but still prefers walking over crawling. She is a very cautious baby and doesn't enjoy swinging or jumping on the trampoline but loves water...weird. She is extremely picky and throws food in the floor ALL the time! It drives me crazy and she just thinks it's funny. Well that's all I got for now. Oh both girls recently got stuck in our little play kitchen...I've attached pictures for your viewing pleasure 😂😂

This is Riley during her first primary program...it was a bit of a struggle near the end haha

They love riding around in this tiny little wagon and Memaw is the only one nice enough to do it haha

Our annual trip to the corn maze! The sun was a little bright haha

Bella can now climb up onto the fireplace..I HATE it but can't stop her these days

This is just a glimpse at Riley's style..she has a dress on with a shirt and sweater over it and then some pajama pants with bike shorts over them...she wanted to go out like that...didn't happen

This is when Bella got stuck in the kitchen...

and then Riley did it...and I'm the kind of mom who says "hold on let me go get my phone!" and she was even trying to smile through the tears for the camera haha such a poser!

Bella got a "B" sticker stuck on her bum!

Riley's haircut (done by mommy) with some layers

Some labor day fun with cousins and grandparents and great-grandparents!

And crazy uncle Kyle

Riley is turning into quite the photographer..posing her animals and dolls for pictures lol

Riley's Moana party (she says she doesn't like Moana anymore). I had a lot of fun decorating for this party probably more fun than I did after the party started with all the craziness of the kids lol jk I am so glad I went all out for her party this year because she loved every second of it and it made it all worth it! She even loved the decorations and all the Moana details which made me feel extra good.

 

This is the face she made when I told her to "rock out" on her guitar haha such a character

She wanted to help me clean! She is pretty good at cleaning most of the time really!

This is as far as I have made it on our letter of the week haha One day she will learn the whole alphabet...

Our second family costume. I have a limit of only making one costume by hand each year haha last year it was Riley's and this year it was mine...it's so much work! I wish I knew how to sew and owned a sewing machine...someday maybe

Riley was so proud of her "bridge" she drew in this picture...I was actually impressed with it too! Just loved her answers..apparently I have taught her how to use her sword...

One of those rare sisterly love momemnts!

That's my updates...see ya in another couple months after the craziness of the holiday's...if I survive!
