Wow....... 2 years!!! What would my life be like the past 2 years without this hot little mess?!! Quiet probably! This child is amazing to say the least! She maybe 2 (but for a month before her birthday, if you asked her, she said she was 5), but she sure does have a strong personality! She is opinionated and very vocal about those opinions! She loves being a big girl like everyone else and pretty much won't let anyone slow her down. In the above picture, she is in curlers. Carly and Chloe wanted their hair curled. So did Finley. I told her she had to sleep with them in, and she didn't care. So I left one little piece out for hair twirling with her thumb, and yes, she slept in them all night! Just one example of her determination in life! I absolutely love this child. Her smile and her sweet voice is enough to just make you smile (and her famous scream can do just the opposite :) She is a fabulous child to say the least!
These are her favorite pair of dancing shoes. Courtesy of Build-A-Bear. She can run, climb, dance, you name it, in these shoes! She reminds me of Miss Piggy. If you have ever read the story Olivia - it was written about Finley! I think she wears herself out!
Finley had 2 birthday parties. 1 at our house with Kris, Gina, Connor, and Kaitlyn, since they were in town. She was happy with her cookie cake!
On the morning of her birthday, she picked out her breakfast.......grits! She even sang "Happy Birthday" to herself.
Thank night we had grandparents over and Aunt NiNi and she got another cake. She was really into blowing out the candles this year. Super cute with those fat cheeks!
She loved opening her presents. She made sure she thanked everyone and she even remembered who gave her each gift! It was a little party, but we were celebrating one wonderful birth! Finley Claire Riffle......we love you more than words can express. You add so much to our family! Happy Birthday Fifi!
