Batting at Toys

In the past couple of days, Riley has begun to bat at his toys with his hands. He's been kicking at them for a couple of weeks already. With the newfound discovery of his hands also comes injuries, as he scratches/pinches/pokes himself in the nose, eyes, and mouth. He is also laughing out loud and I just love hearing his little boy voice.

Operation Get-Riley-To-Nap

So here's the problem. Riley will not nap anywhere other than in my arms. Which isn't a problem for me and I will gladly do it all day. However, I'm not sure that daycare will be so inclined and I'm afraid that Riley won't sleep during the day once I go back to work and will therefore be very unhappy. So...we bought a swing. Wow, what a world of difference. Just look at the pictures if you don't believe me. Pre-swing

After swing. Seriously, why did I wait so long to get a swing????
