Its so crazy to watch Riley's development right now. He is copying EVERYTHING we do that he can do. Its cute.

He has figured out our bedtime routine so anytime you pull jammies out, he starts whimpering and crawling to the left, then to the right, then face plants into a mini tantrum...then looks up to see if you are looking and if you are...back to face plant into the carpet with a baby yowl...then comes up for air and jammies. Last night I pulled out the jammies and he started his routine so I put his shorts on my head and he began laughing hysterically...then he took his shorts off my head and put them on his head and laughed again. So FRIGGEN CUTE! We must have played that game for 10 minutes.

He is also starting to share everything!! He will literally pull food out of his mouth and try to put it in your mouth. As gross as it sounds, I usually take it cause he seems to take pride in sharing. The other night he fed me, Nick and Valentine Elmo (fake) cereal for about 25 minutes. He grabbed my empty cereal bowl and my spoon and fed each of us individually until it was jammie time.

I could definitely go on with the cuteness stories. He really is in a great phase right now. I cant believe he is almost 1. SO crazy.

Gotta run and get him from daycare. Been home for 2 days with the flu, figured I better write when I have a free moment....

Walk baby walk

So...as usual, way too much time has passed between updates. Especially since Riley has now gone from crawling to almost walking in my writing lapse. Riley is cruising like crazy and took his first step toward Nick yesterday while we were playing in the grass. I cant believe how fast time is going. He'll be a year before we know it.

Other updates...we just moved into our new house. Yup, we bought our 1st home in Natomas. We are so excited and loving every minute of it. Every weekend is filled with projects...who knew that picking weeds could be so fulfilling :)

Nick and I are both loving our jobs and Riley is loving his new daycare. He fit in perfectly with the kids and seems to love the new staff. Our life has become so much easier without the extra 10 hours of drive time a week since his daycare is only 17 houses down from us. Its amazing. We can drop him off in our jammies, come home, go for a run, shower and be to work by 9am or 8am even. It is AWESOME!!!

Other than that...just working on the house, planning fun stuff for the summer and looking forward to watching Riley grow as fast as the weeds in our backyard :)
