Okay, I am so excited and can officially post this. Yesterday Riley started rolling over from his belly to his back. I put him down for tummy time after breakfast and went to the kitchen to get a quick drink and when I came back he was on his back! I turned him back over and tried and tried with the video camera to get him to do it again. Nope! He just got mad. Then last night before bath time he was on his tummy while I was washing his bottles. He was a bit fussy as he sometimes gets on his tummy. When I looked down he was on his back! Again, I tried to catch this moment on video, but no luck. Never fear...Mommy was ready this morning. I took the video camera to the floor with us for tummy time. I waited patiently and then woop! Riley rolled on over to his back. Daddy and I have known this moment was approaching for a few weeks. When Riley is in his crib he has been going from back to side. We really thought back to belly would come first, but who cares! Something knew and exciting to share with everyone especially when the doctor told me last week it would be closer to 3 months before he started to do this type of stuff. Not so...our little guy is too impatient. Wonder where he gets that from??
We enjoyed another beautiful day outside yesterday. Today Riley is pooped and knows it is so gloomy that he is napping early. He stayed up a little late last night to see Daddy. Daddy was laid off from work a couple of weeks ago, but thankfully he went right on to work at another job for now. It has been pretty strong and last night it was after 8 before he walked through the door. Riley just looked at him like where have you been all day??!! Riley is like his Daddy in many ways. On Monday, we were outside with Daddy and he was going to wash his 4-wheeler. Well, we decided to let Riley take a little ride around the yard. When we finished and turned the 4-wheeler off, he started to fuss. Daddy turned it back on and then all was quiet. This little cat and mouse game continued for a few minutes and I finally told Daddy we had to go in while he washed the 4-wheeler and get Riley ready for bed. Uncle Jason was excited about this too as he and the rest of the Sharp boys love to ride and 4-wheel. You see Uncle Jason has wanted a 2 seater for a while now and all of a sudden he needs one for Riley to ride in.....we will see where that goes.
Riley and I did a little shopping yesterday. We originally set out to get Easter shoes for Riley's outfit from Pottery Ban Kids. When we got to the mall, I couldn't get the stoller to unfold. I was so irritated with it and just carried Riley in his seat with me. I was not going to rent a stroller from the mall when I had my own and it was just having a malfunction at the moment. Well, I got very tired after a bit of carrying him in the seat and we left to get some lunch. We didn't find any shoes to go with the outfit. If anyone has seen white dress shoes for a boy, please let me know. We enjoyed our lunch at Subway, just Mommy and Riley. Then we were off to get Pinocchio and Transporter 3. Riley is too young to know what Pinocchio is but he thought Mommy was funny saying we were going to get Pinocchio. I never complained about getting up in the night with him or all the dirty diapers, but there were moments when things were frustrating to me because of being a new mother. Those moments are gone for now and all the smiles and laughs we get out of Riley make those frustrating moments seem forever ago and not really that bad after all.
