Riley's New BFF

Riley was very happy when he woke up from his afternoon nap today, so I gave him his glow worm to see what he would do and this is what happened...

Rubber Ducky, You're The One

Watching TV and the Bouncy Seat

2 Months

Riley, this is what you are doing at 2 months:

• You still love to eat. You are currently eating about 32 oz/day.



• You weigh 12 lbs 6 oz and are 23.5 inches long.



• Your eyes are still dark blue.



• Your hair is getting darker and is turning brown.



• Your little eyelashes are getting so long.



• You are wearing size 2 diapers.



• You are wearing 3-6 month clothes.



• You are consistently sleeping through the night (at least 7-8 hrs).



• I hold you all day and you love it.



• You absolutely love your carrier. Every time I put you in it, you fall asleep.



• You like to be swaddled to sleep.



• You are smiling all the time and just starting to laugh.



• You finally like your bouncy seat and you just laugh at the toys and music.



• You love your bath and cry when you get out.



• You laugh when I change your diaper.



• You like to hold your blankets and bibs.

And So It Has Begun

My new life as a stay at home mom, that is. Oh, how I wish I could stay at home with Riley forever (or at least until he starts school). But I will only have 9 more short weeks to be home with my baby before I must go back to work. I refuse to dwell on it and think about it too much because I want to enjoy every single second with sweet Riley. So far today, we have managed to get dressed, eat breakfast, and take Dawson to school! When Riley wakes up from his morning nap, we are planning on going for a walk.

2 Month Stats

Riley had his 2 month well check today, which also included shots. I cried more than he did. He has been fussier than usual today and has ran a little fever. I hope all is well soon. Here are his 2 month stats:

Weight - 12 lbs 6 oz (68%)
Height - 23.5 in (67%)

Mama's Boy

So Riley is a mama's boy. Big time. He cries every time I put him down. I'm trying to savor every moment because I know it won't be long before he's running around and crying to be put down.
