The Sosbes: Rylee lately...

Once again I am LOVING this age Rylee is at right now. Of course, it comes with its moments of acting like a 'terrible two' but overall it's great! She is full of energy and spunk and talks up a storm. She is our wild child that never stops entertaining us and making us laugh. It is so cute when she says anything....I just love her sweet little voice. She is still a very independent little girl with a strong personality. This can be both good and bad at times lol. At her 2.5 yr check up the doctor said she looked great weighing 31 lbs and 35.25 in tall.

Favorites: Rylee still loves going to TLG weekly, playing in the YMCA nursery when Mommy goes to work out, being outside, coloring, stickers, painting, puzzles, dancing/singing, watching her favorite movies, holding Mommy & Daddy's hand, giving Mommy and Daddy and little sister lots of sugars<3 (she always says awwww after she gets a sugar and it is the cutest thing), playing ball with Mali, horses aka hee-haws/ponies & My Little Pony, going bye bye (anywhere is fine with her...she loves to just go), playing with her cousins, bath time, her big girl room/bed, going fishing with Daddy (we got her her very own fishing pole), chasing/running from Daddy, tickling Daddy, random dance parties when her favorite jams come on (in the house, in the car, anywhere) and she always shouts, 'Mommy dance!', and our new morning routine...waking up, tee teeing in the potty, climbing in Mommy's big bed, drinking her milk, and watching cartoons. And I am loving it!

Foods: Pizza, chicken nuggets, fruits, applesauce, carrots, cucumbers, rice, beans, fries, yogurt, cake, cookies, any type of pasta, ketchup (loves to dip), eggos, cheesy rollups, etc.

Currently: Rylee is such a BIG girl! She is growing so fast and learning so quickly! She knows all her body parts, can count up to 10, knows all her colors, and is becoming a much better listener and helper everyday!! She has been in her big girl bed for the past several months now and has done GREAT!! We just registered her for pre-school on MWF starting this Fall....so hard to believe she is ready for school!! I know she will love it and do great....I will just miss her so much during the day but it will give me some one on one time with baby girl. She has also (FINALLY) become potty trained...WOO HOO!! She tells us everytime she needs to teetee or poopoo and has been accident free since we started potty training! She has done great riding in the car and going out in public also!! She even has been waking up dry (sometimes) in the morning but she still wears pull ups just in case aka sleeping panties. So happy to be diaper free until baby sister arrives...WOOHOO!!!
