Kids say the cutest things. Just the other night, my husband(Gerard) was cooking dinner, Riley being a Daddy's girl, wanted to be right next to him. I kept getting her out of the kitchen, distracting her with games, toys, movies, etc. But she kept managing to end right back next to Daddy. We told her over and over, "stay out of the kitchen baby, Daddy is cooking it's hot", Its hot Riley, Daddy is cooking", etc. Finally she looked up at me with those beautiful blue eyes and said. "Mama, Daddy's hot cookie". I happen to agree wholeheartedly.

When Riley was younger, I had her playing in her baby walker while I cooked her favorite dinner(Chicken nuggets and fries) As I got the nuggets out of the freezer I noticed that the chocolate ice cream had gotten freezer burnt, so I threw the tub of ice cream away. I finished cooking and was setting up the high chair for dinner time. I heard her wheel into the kitchen and knock over the trash can, this was not unusual, as she loved to get into stuff. I knew it was a brand new bag with nothing but a tub of ice cream so I continued setting up her food. I looked up and my beautiful child came rolling in smiling the biggest smile. All I could do was laugh, and run for the camera. Definitely a Kodak moment. Oh, how she makes me smile.
