Denton is starting to cruise. He does the side step thing along the couch and a few other pieces of furniture. Otherwise he just tries to try to pull himself up on everything! It is quite comical to see him try to do it on a flat wall where there is nothing to grab onto. He waves and claps (making noise now) and loves to give big open mouth, tongue out, kisses. He still says "dada" mostly and will only say "mama" when he is crying in his crib to get out or is really mad. I try to get him to say "mama" and he responds with "dada", little stinker.
Riley is growing like a weed. She is one tall girl. We have a situation with her pants. The 4t size pants are almost too short on her but the size 5t pants are too big in the waist since she is so skinny. This girl has legs for days. She obviously gets the height from her grandparents, definitely not from Dan or I.
She says the funniest things. Today on our way home from school she told me that during circle time at school she really wanted to have a donut. She then said "so my brain said, Riley I want a donut, so I said, ok brain that is a good idea". HA
She is so adorable with her brother and is always trying to help me. One of my most favorite moments of my day is when I am driving them to or from school/daycare and I look in the review mirror and see them holding hands and laughing with each other. He is just enamored with her and his face lights up at the sight of her. Riley is very good at getting him to laugh and smile when he is sick of being in his car seat. Such a good big sister!!
