Happy 5th Birthday Miss Riley-roo!

My first girl! I was so smitten with Riley when she was born! She was the easiest labour & delivery ever!!! And Miss Roo was the snuggliest baby ever! She would love to just sit back and watch all the action take place:0) I would have to say she still is very much like that!


I love this little picture look at the rolls on her ankles! and those little lips!

I had to add a couple pictures of Riley and her soother (soosie) This child would not go anywhere without her dearly beloved soosie:0) I started to worry we would never get rid of it;) Now looking back at this picture it makes me wonder why I sweat the small stuff?

This is our girl now... she has decided pictures are not so great and I have no sense of fashion and on top of that I have no clue how to do hair!!!! Therefore I am not "allowed" to dress her or do her hair, needless to say we have been seeing some rather interesting outfits and hair:0) She has become a very loving, shy, stubborn, sensitive always willing to give a hand little girl. Some days I say that once she's a teenager only one of us may survive. As she is already giving me a real run for my money, however I hope she keeps some of these traits maybe she will be less likely to cave to peer pressure as a teenager? I guess only time will tell:0)

All I know is when the day is over and she is sound asleep in her bed I sure love her! All the parts! she brings such joy to our home and I am thankful to God that He allowed Howard and I to parent her for a little while! Happy 5th Birthday my precious girl Riley.
