Some of Rhyan's Favorite Pastimes...

Emailing all her friends is keeping her quite busy these days!

And of course she is still obsessed with puzzles! And she's so good at them! (i need to find some new ones but the old playskool wooden ones are hard to come by!)

And of course accepting gifts from Grammy is a fun thing... especially when the gift is a BARNEY doll!!!! (girl's obsessed!)

She's such a busy girl, as you can see! I also want to remember that at 2 years and 5 months old she can:

• spell "rhyan"
• say all of her abc's
• recognize the #'s 2, 3, 5, 8, 9
• count to 13
• sing pretty much any song, although my personal favorite is "step by step, oooo baby" (yes, nkotb! HA! we like the 90s around here!)
• knows almost all her colors: red, yellow, blue, green, orange, pink, and of course "barney purple"
• can draw a circle and knows these shapes: circle, triange, square, star and heart
• is still a great little eater and loves her veggies. meat is hit or miss, but i cant blame her!
• knows that her name is "rhyan shwayne pord" :-) and that daddy is "jepp pord". I, however, am just "mommy"!

She is a sheer joy. I mean, sure she's a little drama queen... but we'll take her, drama and all :-)
