4 months!




Well, Mr. Riley is now 4 months old. He has had his 4 month shots and well visit. He weighs 13 pounds even and is 24 and 1/2 inches long. He just babbles all the time and moves his little legs at what seams like 100 miles an hour when he is on the floor. He is such a happy baby! He will smile at anyone and rarely is fussy. We've had some fussy evenings the last week due to some teething, but he is being a really good sport. He finally rolled over on his belly from his back. He has been rolling on his side and from belly to back for some time now. His favorite thing to do is standing with his fist gripped around our fingers so he can look around. Riley has found this new amazement with Hercules. I can see his little brain turning and wishing he could just grab his tail and put it in his mouth. What a terrible time I'm going to have with him exploring....he wants to eat everything...even his feet!!! I try to tell him they are stinky feet and he shouldn't eat them, but he just smiles like "Whatever Mom!" Strangely, he has started "rocking" back and forth when he is on his belly. Our doctor said he is preparing for the "scoot", but it would probably be some time before he takes off. He trys so hard to sit up by himself, but still needs a little support. Riley loves cereal!!! His little lips just smack and make the funniest noise. Sometimes he gets fussy when I'm not feeding him fast enough. We're going to Gatlinburg next week for my birthday and I can't wait to get Riley in the swimming pool!!!
