Watch out world-here comes Riley! Not to be outdone by her older brother, here is Riley saying her letter sounds a bit before she turned 2.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Rileybell's 2nd birthday!

Riley Isabel turned 2 today! We celebrated with a little party at our house - sidewalk chalk, bubbles, crafts, cupcakes, tutus, and lots of purple....Riley is a party girl and loved it! Thanks to her wonderful friends and family for making her day so special!

Ha-Nate and I look great here! ;) In the other family picture the balloon strings are right in Mesh's face so I went with this one...plus look at Ri's big smile!

The weather was pretty nice!

All dressed up and ready to party!

100th Post/ Coop Preschool Carnival

I started this blog about 2 years ago, shortly before Riley was born, and now on her birthday weekend I have reached my 100th post!

We have had a fun and busy weekend. I have Fridays off work and I take Riley to Redmond Toddler Group (a coop preschool) while Nate is in preschool. She had a little birthday celebration there and that night we went to Red Robin for her birthday dinner. Today was the annual Carnival for her school. The kids had a blast, as did Gramps, who came along and worked half my shift for me-thanks Dad!

Tomorrow is the big day-Rileybell turns 2! She is such a sweet, spunky, smart little girl (She already knows all the letters, counts to 20 (though she prefers to start w/ 3...who needs 1 and 2 anyways), and I will have to post the video of her saying her letter sounds soon-totally amazing what she picks up!)

Fishing for prizes

Ethan won a crocodile cupcake creation in the cake walk and shared w/ us - thanks Ethan!

Love these 2 and their little brother on the way, Mesh and I are so very blessed.

What is life without a little fun and extra sugar? We celebrated Riley's birthday all week with mini-cupcakes after dinner. I have never seen Nate eat so much as he did this week in order to get to lick the frosting off a cupcake each night!

Baby Update!

UPDATE 3/3: Our little boy is measuring at the 21st %ile and doing great! His estimated weight is 3 pounds 8 ounces. The most amazing part of the ultrasound was watching his precious little lips open and close as I also felt him hiccup....adorable! It's hard to tell but I think he looks a lot like Nate! ;)

Here is a picture of my belly from last week! The Littlest Iyer is due 9 weeks from today! I had an appointment yesterday and found out I am anemic and the doctor may give me iron through an IV in a few weeks if my supplements don't start kicking in (maybe that is contributing to why I am so tired and pale...okay, I know I am sadly always pale). Baby is measuring small so we have an ultrasound tomorrow to monitor his growth, but the doc had the same concerns with Riley, who turned out to be healthy and just naturally little.

Just added this picture because it makes me smile!
