destroying the examining room</a>! He tore that paper on the examining table up! He kicked it, punched it, ripped it and ate it...and laughed the whole way through! He's a little devil. He will lure you in with that cute, round face and cheeks...deep, blue eyes and wavy blonde hair...then he'll GET YOU! :-)
Riley is now in the solid-eating world. So far he likes everything except those green beans! Our first round of fruits was applesauce and he seemed to be very cautious when eating it. He'll be drinking 32 ounces of formula a day, along with rice/oatmeal/mixed grain cereals, a fruit and a veggie.
We are working on getting Riley to nap. He is NOT a napper. He may sleep for a half hour or hour at a time during the day. He'll nap in the mid-morning, then stay wide-awake for the rest of the day. We have been told to put him in his crib and leave him in there, hopefully teaching him that it's time to sleep. He continues to sleep through the night from 9pm until 8:30am.
All Riley does is TALK, TALK, TALK! We swear he said, "baba" the other day (referring to his bottle) and he is on the verge of saying "dada" (Kim keeps working on "mama!"). Does he "know" what he is saying? Probably not!
He hasn't cut his teeth yet but he is drooling like crazy. If Georgia is still in a drought, they can come ring water out of Riley's t-shirts and fill Lake Lanier!
Kim had to cut Riley's hair the other day. Yes...at six months, his bangs were hanging in his face! Now he looks like a little boy! He's not our "baby" anymore. :-(
Riley and Kim are headed to Buffalo this month to introduce Riley to his family, especially his Great Grandma Munn. It will be great for her to finally meet him!
