Walking without the lion now!

For a few days now Riley has started to take some tentative steps. Good thing those diapers are so padded!

Every day he is getting so much better at it. He will be running in no time!

Visit with Grandma Becky

Went to Manatee Island Park in Daytona Beach with Grandma Becky














Last few weeks

I have gotten really behind and haven't updated the blog in a few weeks so here is the start on catching up!

At Riley's 9 month doctor appointment he weighed 20.9 pounds (25-50th%), measured 29 inches long (50-75th%) and his head circumference was 46cm (50-75th%).

The Swesey's and Barta's came over for the Outback Bowl on New Years Day




All the parents were pretty tired so luckily the kids were happy to entertain themselves in the playyard!




Around the middle of January, we brought out a couple of walkers for Riley and he took right to them. He especially liked the lion!






The Bath-hawk


Playdate at our house with Keeley and Chelsey (and their moms Tiffany and Emily!)




Had a Jello party at school and came home exhausted with hands, arms and face dyed red! He must have had a blast!





Riley now loves to mimic us. Here he is clicking back to me, doing bababa (repeated hand to mouth), and mad face!



He also is learning to love to explore and climb under and over everything! Uh oh!




I swear he was standing when I clicked the picture!




Hanging with Daddy

Reading "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" with Daddy shortly before Christmas



Playing with the Grinch and Max

Christmas Weekend Photo Bonanza!

Christmas Eve bath!




Christmas Eve





Opening the first present with Daddy




Should have just given him coasters-they were lots of fun!




We stuck this bow on his head for a cute picture and he just left it there for an amazingly long time! He didn't seem to know or care that it was there. I think he had too many other things to do :)









Christmas morning





Thanks for all the accessories Aunt Jenny. Although Riley's melon was a little too big for this headgear...
















Paper was another very fun present




















Learning how to make Pops' famous Christmas chili













Christmas afternoon










Developing a love of music early-Thanks Uncle Mike!







Being silly with Grammy




Making sausage balls














Ready for a nap - not even the aunts can calm Riley!



Winding down with Pops



Christmas Evening






Chillin by the fire
