Riley is 3!!

Sweet Riley is three!  What a wonderful blessing and joy she is! 



She had her well check a few weeks after her birthday and everything looked great.
Riley is 38" tall (65%) and weighed in at 28 lb 6 oz (25%).  The doctor used my height, Clay's height and Riley's current growth to estimate she will be 5'6" tall.  Fun!  Just a tiny bit taller than me.

I asked Riley a few questions and want to try to do this with each birthday!  (idea stolen from Paige :) and Pinterest)

What do you want to be when you grow up? Riley: "A princess, tell me who"  Me: "Who?"  Riley: Princess Belle

*"I weared it a long day"-  Riley has been saying "a long day" for past events and she uses it for anything from yesterday to things that happened months ago. 
Example: "I go to school a long day." "mommy took me ____ a long day"

She also uses "all the day long" to mean all day.  Example: She will tell Clay "I missed you all the day long"  "We played all the day long"

We LOVE this!! So cute!

Asking these questions made me realize a few things. 
- She is indecisive...like her momma :)
- She loves breakfast foods...like her momma
- I need to make her pancakes more often
- I love this age!!! (I already knew this but this was a fun reminder)

Next blog will be her birthday party. :)
