Little Update.

So, I am currently writing this at 1:46 a.m. Riley thinks that he needs to be awake for at least 2 hours straight in the middle of the night... every night. Awesome. Haha, life with a newborn. I am sure he will figure it out soon enough. I cannot believe that in 2 days Riley will be 4 weeks old! It has been the fastest 4 weeks ever! He is really such a good baby. He is so strong and usually pretty happy. He puts up really well with Noah smothering him. When he was 3 weeks old he graduated out of newborn clothes and diapers. He wears size 1 diapers and 0-3 months clothes. I feel like he is huge! He loves bath time and going for walks. Oh and he loves car rides too, just like his big brother! A lot of the things he does and likes reminds me of Noah... however I think he looks a lot different than Noah. He looks more like Trevor I think. We are loving him so much and are enjoying every second... even this middle of the night business! Haha. **I finally finished this post on Aug 7th... Riley is ONE MONTH OLD!! Holy Cow!**




Noah boy is totally owning this big brother thing! Before I had Riley, I was so nervous how Noah would react to a new baby... but he is doing great! He seriously loves Riley so much. From the time he was born Noah just loves to show "Ri-rey" off. Noah is constantly kissing him and asking to hold him. If Riley is crying or fussing at all Noah runs to his rescue to give him a blanket or his binky, andif that doesn't work he comes to gets mommy or daddy to help Riley! Haha. But Noah also has the picking on part of being a big brother down too, we often have to get after Noah for poking Riley's eyes or just being a little too rough. Noah is so anxious to have a brother to play with, he doesn't quite understand Riley is too small for playtime. Noah has been a really big helper, he loves getting diapers and wipes and all sorts of little chores. It has been a really smooth transition for all of us! Besides the brother stuff, Noah is growing like crazy too. Since we brought Riley home, Noah has seriously seemed so so huge! I can't get over how big my baby is! He went to the dentist for the first time a few weeks ago and was a champ! (Fun fact: his dentist is the same one I went to as a kid! When we met the dentist I was like holy cow you look so familiar!)





As for me and Trev, we are surviving on lock of sleep and trying to keep up with 2 little boys. It has been easier than we thought it would be but still challenging us! It always seems as soon as we get one happy kiddo, the other one has a crisis.. or get one asleep the other one wakes up. Haha. Our anniversary is coming up in about 2 weeks and I am trying to get something planned, I have some fun ideas but we have to keep Riley with us so plans are limited!
