Look who turned TWO!
Here's a pic of Ryan trying on some of her birthday presents...her new crown and "twinkle shoes". For her birthday Ryan also got a fish tank to put in her room. She picked out a blue Betta fish and let her big brother pick out a orange fish for the tank too. They feed their fish every morning and say goodnight to them before bed. Side note to anyone buying a fish tank -- beware of accidentally dropping tank rocks in the garbage disposal when you're rinsing them. It is a costly mistake. Garbage disposals are NOT cheap!
Lately Ryan has become a big fan of "Dora the Explorer". It was only fitting she have a Dora cake to celebrate. We had a couple of friends over to play and eat cake. Most of the party she wanted to be carried by Daddy, but got past her shyness to enjoy everyone singing happy birthday and blowing out her candles. 
Little Ryan is full of personality. Sometimes it's hard to remember she's only two! She loves to sing, jump and dance. She can count to 10 (and thanks to Dora she can say it in Spanish too). She tries hard to sing her ABC's but prefers to sing the ending "Now I know my ABC's. Next time wont you sing with me" over and over again. We love the way she calls Carter by his full name, Carter Meek. And the way she say "O-tay" is just adorable too! She has so much fun playing pretend and dress up, but is always willing to play with light sabers in the backyard with the older boys. Her teachers at school say she is the most improved student. She was a nightmare at the beginning of the year and now Ryan walks in with a big smile on her face and is happy the entire day. She enjoys every moment and is a delight to have around. We think she is a delight too!
Happy Birthday, Ryan Michele! We love you very much and always will!!
