stinkiness

As Riley is walking with her snack out of the kitchen she runs into Roger and shouts, "Back! My bowl!!" She also loves to hit him on he nose and poke him in the eye.

Riley kept trying to climb onto my lap while I sat in the recliner. The foot rest kept closing and I said, "Do you want me to help you?" She gave me the meanest look and yelled, "NO!"

Riley's favorite DVD is Signing Time. She brings me the disc and says "signing" as she does the sign herself. How cute is she? Well, if you happen to say not right now or later, she says "signing" even louder and will continue to do so until she is screaming it and then gets a time out. Not so cute.

She is biting, spanking, and hitting all of us, especially Avery. Poor big sis keeps getting picked on by the little runt.

And yes, all of this happened today and is usually part of the daily routine.

This girl is, how shall I put it...spirited? bratty? hard to manage? crazy? Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.

But, this girl will melt your heart in a second when she smiles at you with those big blue eyes, scrunches up her nose making the silliest face ever, and continues to cover you in kisses and hugs just because that's how she rolls.

Man, we love this girl.

Your Riley sounds like my Jordan :) We seriously need to get together this summer! We'll be doing some traveling this month, but maybe in July, we can actually set a date!

I feel like you completely described Milo right there. He is so fiesty and aggressive and adorable and sweet all at the same time. He even makes that same face!
