Time flies when you have a baby

So last week was a little crazy without daycare, but we got through it. Riley is now both SCA and Terra Nova's top mascot since he spent most of the week there. I think he beat out everyone's dogs for mascot of the week last Friday at my job. Or at least I think he should have. Apparently since most of the people I work with have older kids, Fridays are: bring your dog to work day...Jiggy, Morgan Freeman and I think there are at least 2 Rubys. All cute, but not as cute as Rileybear.

Anywho...I wanted to take this time to say thanks to everyone at our jobs and Isaac and Clark and Ed for pulling through with babysitting. U all rock!!! Its times like these that I am reminded that we have such amazing friends!!!!

Here's the latest on the Ri man: he now has 5 teeth, almost 6. He is army crawling and can sit up on his knees and rock for a few minutes until flattening out. I swore he crawled two nights ago, but it was hard to tell cause he flopped down really fast. It looked like he went at least one rotation, ie: one hand fwd and one knee fwd. Soon enough, I'm sure...

His diet has expanded from just mom's milk to: mom's milk, squash, peas, avocado, carrots and sweet potatoes. He has tried bananas once, but wasnt a huge fan. I have been making his food mostly with fresh veggies and a blender which is fun, but he seems to like the Gerber stuff better. Imagine that. I swear they put crack in there, esp in the squash. Even Loki goes crazy for it!!! I looked on the ingrediants though, no crack, just squash and water...

Riley continues to be a social butterfly and loves people. Someone told me the other day that its not healthy for kids to go to ANY adult. WOW. He is only 6 1/2 months. Now when he is 4 years old and going off with strangers you can tell me that again and I might believe you. And then I would go look for my kid cause going with strangers is bad and creepy...ahhh, baby crying...gotta go...
