Dear Riley, You are TWO!

My Riley Bear,

Say it isn't so my little 5 pound squished head Riley girl is a big 26lb 2 year old toddler. Riley you are my little mini me look a like but with blonde hair! You are more laid back than your sister but also a lot more sensitive, you get your feelings hurt easily and have mastered the dramatic art of throwing a fit but most of the time you are a sweet daddy's girl. You are attached to your daddy's hip majority of the time he is home and will even help pick up dog poop just to be outside with him. You love your sissy and lots of time take your leads from her but lately we have liked seeing you come out of your shell and boss her around for once. :) You are so cute it hurts my cheeks looking at you because you make me smile so much. Daddy and I laugh at you trying to help us discipline your sister and telling her "No SISSY!" but you are also the first to give her a hug and kiss each night before bed. This life just wouldn't be complete without the duo of Sloan and Riley. I love you so much Riley and can't wait to see you grow into yourself even more.



Happy 2nd Birthday Riley Aileen!



Love,

Mama

Dear Sloan, I can't believe you are two!

My sweet Sloan,

I can't even believe you are two years old! I remember the day you were born like it was yesterday. Now the days after you were born and for a few months are quite foggy but I remember the just of it, eat, sleep, cry, burp, cry, eat, maybe sleep, eat, cry more.....BUT all those days and months were worth it to get to see the little sweet lady I know today. You keep me laughing and on my toes everyday, you learn a new phrase what feels like everyday, you get more personality and more sass every hour. You love your sister and most of the time you two are the best of friends but in true sister fashion you fight like mortal enemies as well. You love dogs and always ask about Oli and Casey and frequently lay on them or try and kiss them. You are a mommy's girl but not too clingy and once you warm up you are everyone's best friend. We love you to pieces and at night when daddy and I lay in bed we watch you and Riley's videos and thank our lucky stars we get to be your parents. This life is crazy busy and often times chaotic but its ours and you and Riley fit perfectly in it.



Happy 2nd Birthday Sloan Marion!



Love,

Mama
