YAY! Riley is in her crib now and is doing well. Although I miss having her close to me at night it is for the best. Or so I'm told. No, I know it is better for all, but I like being able to wake up and see her while she sleeps in her bassy by the bed. She's getting too big. I think she is already giving me "what for" in her own little language. She does have her very own attitude which I am still trying to figure out. She's getting to that stage where she is fussing for attention, its too cute but at the same time I have to resist giving in :( Its amazing that even the little things she does makes my day. My favorite at the moment is when she follows me with her eyes. And of coarse my all time favorite is when she smiles at me. Makes me feel all warm and fussy. :) here's some pics of her playing with her cousins.
This weekend, Andy's cousin came up with her family. Lillianne (who is 2 weeks), Layla (2 months) and Riley were all together for the first time. It was amazing to see the age differences in all three. It made me miss the times when Riley was at those milestones and amazed me on how big she has gotten. I'll have pics up soon of the gathering.
Now since Riley is eating her oatmeal, we are going to try to get her in her crib. Last night she slept from 11:30 to 10:00 this morning -- without stirring in the wee hours of the morning. For the first time in a long time, I feel like I got a good nights sleep. woohooo. Currently she is napping in her crib without a care in the world.
On a side note, my brother-in-law, Scott is having surgery today, so please keep him in your prayers. Also, my sister-in-law Morgan may be going home today woohooo!! Its about time.
Like I said pics are coming....
Riley is now four months, 3 inches longer (26in) and 14 lbs. 9 oz.
We're growing like a weed, and rolling like a fool. We have started working on eating oatmeal cereal. Let me tell you that is gross. It smells gross, looks gross. I wouldn't eat it either.
Riley made it to her first cheerleading competition last weekend. Morgan had her first youth league competition -- and she did great. A natural. No wonder, its in her blood, and its in Riley's too no matter what Andy says. She had a great time, and was awake lookin during most of it.
Riley and I went down to Louisville to watch Morgan and visit while Andy stayed at home to get some things done. We had a wonderful time.
Riley will be four months next week and guess what?!? She is rolling over on a regular basis. She gets mad when I roll her back onto her back.
Well pics are coming soon.
here are some new pics...
