little Riley...

So here's the latest with our little monkey...
-She is 15 months, 20 pounds.
-we created (well, Marky did) a little play area on our patio for Riley, and she LOVES it.  If I say, "Let's go outside" she runs to the sliding door, and gets so excited!  It will be a perfect place to hang out in the summer.
-She got her first 'baby' this month.  I took some video's of her 'interacting' with it, so once I finish putting all the pieces into one video, I'll definitely be posting it.
-She LOVES to brush her teeth...we are PRAYING that it continues throughout her life! ha.  If she hears the bathroom sink water running, she literally RUNS to the bathroom saying "eeeeeee"  (When we first started brushing her teeth, Marky taught her to say 'eeeee' so she will open her mouth and show her teeth.) Then she gets mad when we tell her to 'rinse'
-She is getting her 13th tooth!!!  This one will cut any day now.  Her last of the 4 molars came through a few weeks ago, and now another tooth! She got her first tooth at 8 months, and it has been 7 months of TEETHING!  Which means for the past 7 months she hasn't slept through the night.  Oh when will the teething STOP?!
-Her rash is gone but we still never figured out exactly what she's allergic to.
-She is NOT a picky eater!  She will eat pretty much anything.
-She says a handful of words...hi, bye, mama, dada, dog, balloon, eyes, please...and I know there are more, but Marky and Riley are still sleeping, so I can't ask him.
-If she doesn't know where something is, or a ball goes under the couch, she puts her arms out as if saying "I don't know"...its soooo cute!
-She loves to dance when the music is on, and claps when she hears clapping.
-Last week she got pink eye.  She would wake up to her eye crusted shut for a few days...it was so sad.  But once we put the eye drops in, her eye immediately got better!
That's all I can think of for now...but everyday gets better than the last.  Parenthood is such a joy and we love every minute of it!   Here's a picture of her pink eye...this is when it started to get better...
