Daily Riley!

I have a feeling that this little trooper will cut a tooth soon. It feels like he’s 6 weeks old again, waking up every hour all night. I bought him an amber teething necklace to see if it would help, but his dad isn’t comfortable with having it on at bedtime. I agree, but they are made with a clasp that will unfasten if pulled on at all…

Anywho, look at that face!!

Daily Riley!

We are BACK and we come back with a tale of true love. A boy and his… feet? Yes, that’s right, love at first sight IS real!

Since the last Daily Riley, he has learned to:

  • Roll onto his tummy
  • Get stuck on his tummy
  • Yell
  • Giggle
  • Hold toys and bring them to his mouth
  • Wriggle in a circle on his tummy
  • Push up onto his hands
  • Sit up with help
  • Jump in his Jolly Jumper

Oh yea, and bite his toes.

Daily Riley!

I think it’s time for early teething! Did you know that babies can start teething 1-3 months before they actually cut teeth? I didn’t. Mr. Man is a constant flow of drool lately. His current favourite activities are biting his fists, biting my knuckles, and giving me the teensiest little hickies on my arms as he impatiently awaits his bottle. Poor little guy had a pretty restless night last night and then awake for 6 hours after getting up!

Thankfully, as long as I keep the ants marching and the bononos oted, he is happy!

I have to post a second one of course! I was so inactive because I had a birthday and went to visit some family for the weekend.

Saturday was the first time going out since Riley was born and he got to hang out with nana and papa for the night. I may have had my phone in hand all night, but I somehow resisted calling to check in every hour.

I missed my little sweetie so much, I feel like I’ve hardly put him down since coming home.

Daily Riley!

The best start to my morning is laying in bed as the sun comes up with my smiley little boy. He was up almost every hour last night and I am struggling to keep my eyes open. Thank goodness his dad is the best and stays up with him for a bit when he gets home from midnights so this mama gets a little nap! Enjoy this daily dose of cute!

Daily Riley!

Mr. Man got his shots a couple days ago and has not been a happy camper! Today he’s finally back to his usual grinning self.

It breaks your heart as a mother to see your baby so upset and nearly inconsolable, but the best thing to do is to stay relaxed and create a comfortable, healing atmosphere for your mini. We’ve had some long nights over the past couple of days, but it’s nothing a little patience and snuggles can’t help.
