Worst Blogger EVER!

Wow, I'm really bad at this blog thing. Riley just keeps me so busy that I have a hard time finding time to keep up. But, I have a few moments now. We had a great holiday season. Christmas morning, my side of the family came over to open presents and have a big breakfast. Then, we spent the rest of the day at Ty's family's house. It was such a great day and being able to share it with our whole family was fantastic! Riley really got the hang of opening presents. She made out like a little bandit! She had a great time playing with her cousins and grandparents and great-grandparents the whole day.
After the new year came Riley's first ear infection. She was trooper though and was pretty much over it in no time. She's back up and running in full force. She's learning some baby sign language, which is cool. She's still talking, too. In fact one of her favorite new games is to throw something down on the floor from her high chair and look at me and say, "Up, Mama, up." Okay, so she's a little demanding too. We're all learning our boundaries and what battles to fight and which ones to just let go. But, it's tough. I had no idea she'd be such a little diva so early! Fortunately, she's also such a sweetheart and for a one year-old she actually minds fairly well. (For me anyway- she's totally got her daddy wrapped around her little finger!)
Alright, well I'm going to add some pictures and call it done for awhile. I'll try to be a better blogger!
