Rilee's Birthday

Rilee has already had 2 birthday celebrations and still has one more to go. I thought I would go ahead and post pictures from the first two parties. Rilee's 2nd birthday was May 4th. We had BoBo, Poppy, Great Grandma, Aunt Ash, and Uncle Bill over for dinner on May 3rd. We had dinner, cookies, and opened presents. For both of Rilee's first 2 parties we chose to do a theme of her favorite movie characters. We decorated with Minnie, Mickey, Tangled, Princess and the Frog, Toy Story, and Spongebob. Rilee got some new outfits, a toy dog, and a singing tea set.

Mommy and Dada both took Rilee's birthday off and celebrated with putting sand in the sandbox. Rilee LOVED playing in the sand and helping Dada build sand castles.

Finally, last weekend we had Dada's family over for a cook out to celebrate Rilee's birthday. We enjoyed the beautiful weather and good company! Rilee got 2 tents, a bag chair, 2 babies, and an outfit. Rilee was a little intimidated by the older kids, but enjoyed showing her new swing set to Shane and Som (both boys are about Rilee's age).

Birthday Present From Mommy and DaDa

Dada and Mommy bought Rilee a new swing set for her birthday. The weather cooperated with Dada last weekend so he built the swing set a little early. Rilee loved it! These pictures are all of the first time she played on it! The only downfall to the swing set is that Rilee HATES to have to come in the house after playing! She throws a full on tantrum when it is time to stop playing...Mommy has a feeling her and Rilee will be spending a LOT of time outside this summer! Rilee will be 2 on Friday! Mommy and Dada can't believe 2 years have already passed! She is growing up so fast! Mommy will post pictures from Rilee's several birthday parties as we celebrate! This was her reaction when she first saw the swing set. She just stood there staring at it before she took off running toward it!
