Riley had cereal tonight!

After diving in after my banana this afternoon... we decided it was time to start the cereal a little bit early. To think that I thought I could hold out until 6 months. Heck no.

P.S. I had her weighed today. The peanut is 11lbs 5oz. I am eager to go back to the dr because on their scale, she usually weighs more. Don't forget to look back on Thursday to see what kind of cute outfit we got her!

Here's a video of tonights adventure for your viewing pleasure!

my poor sick baby

Well, they say the 3rd time's a charm... and that was true for us w/ Riley Roo. We went to the pediatrician on 1/20 and 1/24 because she was sick and were told that it was just a bad cold that needed to work itself out. So frustrating. By Friday night/ Saturday morning, Riley was not herself. She would scream anytime we laid her down and was SUPER fussy otherwise. When I was rocking her at 5:30 a.m., I decided we were going to the dr and we weren't leaving until they gave her SOMETHING. Sure enough, we got in to see her regular pediatrician and she took one look at her ears... ear infection in both ears. The cold was now borderline on pneumonia. Terrific. My 3 month old is already going to go on anti-biotics. It made me a little sad that her perfect little body had now been tainted. The world was already starting to attack her. However, we've survived and she is happy and smiling again! I love that gummy little smile!

Sick Riley - Thursday evening

my sweet angel

Riley was so unbelievably good when we went out to dinner Friday night! I was SO proud of her! She was being so cute! She was tired and so she kept grabbing her blanket and pulling it over her face and then would doze off (I kept checking to see what she was doing... snoozing away)... and every once in a while, she'd pull it down so that we could see just her eyes, look around for a few seconds, and then pull it back up. It was too funny.

I'm sleeping, please don't look at meAlright, I want to see what's going on real quick... I'll take a quick peek

small vent.

I HATE... and I mean HATE... when people say, "Well I'm being so selfish/rude/witchy/mean because I'm on my period." Do not blame being a woman on you being a jerk. Grow up and learn how to control yourself... maybe you should re-evaluate things. The only time you are exempt from being in control of your emotions are just after you have a baby! On top of crazy hormones, you are sleep deprived. Normal period hormones do not count.

Vent over!

Time to wake my angel so she can eat and we can go out to dinner for my birthday! WOOOOO HOOOOO!!

tap tap tap... is this thing on?

This was taken after she'd been sitting for about a minute... she was leaning forward to fall over right as I was snapping the picture... it looks like she is saying "tap tap tap... Is this thing on??"
