These last few months have been so much fun with our little Rio and I've taken so many adorable pics of her that I had to share them so both she and I could remember them forever! Since about April when the weather officially changed, she has insisted on only wearing a skirt or a dress every, single day! She refuses to wear shorts unless I tell her where we're going, she has to - but I honestly love it! She is so cute and has such a little style to her that I would never try and change it! She is such a little "princess diva" and she loves anything that is girly so she has a blast picking out things to wear and play with.
Here are just a few:
Playing dress up at Aunt Kristin's house - butterfly wings and all
This was taken many months ago at my friend Roxy's house - Rio managed to find EVERY possible bracelet and necklace in her house :)
One day, Uncle Marc was over and Rio had gotten wet going down a wet slide at the park and this is the ensamble that she chose to put together - candy cane stripped tights and her hedgehog shirt - what a riot she is!
One of Rio's all time favorite things to do is raid mommy's closet (probably like most little girls) - she found my tallest shoes and a scarf to go with her little dress that day - she honestly wore those shoes for hours! I can't even do that!
This one has got to be a favorite of mine - my own little "Rio In Boots" - she came out of my room and said, "mommy, I look like Puss In Boots!" She had never been more proud of herself
Sometimes if she can't find a skirt in her own closet to wear, she goes into my skirts - yes, that is my skirt around her body & my necklace as well - I had to clip it in the back so it would stay on her while she played - silly girl!
Another great Rio In Boots look - Austin joined in the pic this time wondering why only Rio is in the picture - yes Austin, you're adorable too sweet boy.
Another all time fav of mine - she has on if you can't tell, a dress & a skirt an her adorable bunny ears, sand pail, necklace topped off with her "Punzel" shoes
Need I say anything? Goggles, necklaces, purses and bracelets were all she was thinking about that day!
Here I come Hawaii! She was loving the lei she found as well as her new sun hat and "anklet" - what a sweetheart you are Rio
Because Rio loves princesses soo much, I had to take her to the Festival this summer! She was so excited! I made the mistake of mentioning it a little too soon and she talked about going to the Princess Festival with only mommy for weeks and would tell the boys that they had to stay home.
We had so much fun and here are a few pics of my little princess with the bigger girl princesses :)
Rapunzel read Rio a story and she was literally on cloud 9 all day because of it!
One of the fun things, they offer at the festival is for the girls to get their hair done and so we did! She loved it and sat there so good while these sweet girls did her hair complete with fairy dust!
There were so many great princesses to see but Rio was picky with those she'd get a picture with - here she is with Cinderella - poor thing - doesn't she look SO HOT! It was a warm, warm day and walking around didn't help but of course, she didn't seem to mind!
Meeting Belle had to be the highlight of the day - she wasn't sure what to say to her so she just politely said, "I want my picture with you." Sweet Belle didn't hesitate and Rio loved it
She also got to run into Ariel "by the water mommy" She thought it was so fun that Ariel was sitting by the water with her "legs" - she may not look super happy in this pic but she was :)
We went with our sweet friends, Roxy, Avery & Reese and had to make a stop in the shade and eat an otter pop! Lifesaver for these 3 little girls on such a hot day
Mommy, Rio and Prince Charming - she had to have me in the picture or the prince would have been out - ha-ha!
Aurora, Belle & Cinderella with their otter pops
My own little Rapunzel with her beautiful hair - she thought this pic was so funny and could not figure out why I asked her to stick her head through a hole. That is until she saw the picture and then she laughed and thought it was so silly
My own little Aurora posing for a pic on her own - she was so stinkin' hot!!!! (and so was her pregnant mommy)
At the end of the festival, we let the girls take off their dresses and go play in the water for awhile to cool off! Rio and Reese kept sharing a ladybug that they had rescued from the water - so sweet! She insisted I take a pic of the ladybug since I had taken so many already of everything else - why not?
I love you Rio! You're my sweet, little friend and shadow at times.. I'm so lucky to be your mom and to be able to do so many fun things with you - we'll hopefully have so many more fun and special thing to do together. You're so special to both my and daddy - we love your kind and "spirited" personality. You make us be on our toes all the time and your sweet and tender soul is one to be envious of - you already understand so much about the power of prayer and the important role it plays in our life and how we feel. You're so smart and talented - your mind is like a little sponge and you have a great love of music and singing. I will always do my best to help you in anything you want to do - I love you so much!
