Rylee is One Year Old!

I can't believe my Smilee Rylee is One Year Old today!  The time has just flown past.  I am sad that she is growing up so fast.  She weighs 21 pounds, and her 3 1/2 year old sister weighs 32 pounds! Can you believe it?  She is no small fry.  She still Looooves her food, but she's been teething and hasn't had quite the appetite she usually has.  Her new favorite fruit is peach.  She slurps them up right from the table.  She is eating regular cereal now, and tries so hard to use a spoon.  She is drinking whole milk, and she is getting really good at drinking out of a cup.  She hasn't figured out that she has to suck on the sippy cup, though, so there is at least one spill a meal.  Sigh.  Whenever someone says goodbye, in real life or on tv, she waves.  It's so cute.  She really wants to talk on the phone, but hasn't started saying actual words yet.  I thought she said banana, she says mama, but I think that means food, and she has said dada, but she is not consistant at all, and we are not sure if she knows what she's saying or not.  She is ever so close to walking!  She can stand, and she tries to take steps, but she falls down a lot.  Soon, I think!  She is as cuddly and cute as ever, and we love our little One Year Old!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY, RYLEE!!!
