Riley had his 2 month appointment today and he was such a trooper. Shots are hard and he cried pretty hard during them but as soon as I held him he was better. He has been sleeping since we left the doctor's office though, must have been rough on him! Noah also got his flu vaccine while we were there so we are all caught up on our vaccines. :) Riley is very healthy and growing like a weed. He is a big boy! Dr. McInterff says he is doing great!
Riley is seriously such a good baby. He is so happy and really hardly ever cries. He is just starting to sleep about 7 1/2 hours straight. I have a hard time keeping him awake after 7 p.m. so he goes to bed around 7:30 p.m. and wakes up around 3:00 a.m. and eats for about 15 min has a diaper change and goes right back to bed. Then he wakes up at about 6:00 a.m. for another feed and sometimes goes back to sleep until 8:00. It's pretty fantastic. He is starting to be awake quite a bit more during the day and loves when Noah plays with him. He loves his milk and is a great eater. Nursing has been so fabulous this time. (Not that it wasn't with Noah, but I just know what I am doing this time!) Riley eats about every 2 1/2 hours during the day on average, sometimes it's a little longer between feeds. He smiles like crazy, loves to be talked to, and is starting to coo quite a bit. It's adorable. He loves to be in his swing and just kicking around on the floor. He also really loves bathtime! He and Noah are gonna be an unstoppable pair in the tub when Riley gets to be able to splash and swim like Noah! Haha. When Riley is tired he prefers to be laid down and left alone to fall asleep rather than be cuddled or nursed to sleep.. which is a good thing... but I sometimes wanna cuddle him! Ha. Oh, he has also discovered his hands and loves to chew and suck on them! I just love this little boy so much! We are having so much fun with him. My favorite part about having two kids is how much they naturally love each other. It's amazing to watch them interact and see how Noah loves to kiss and hold and talk to Riley, and how Riley lights up when Noah is around him. It is the best. Riley is scheduled to be blessed in 2 weeks, on September 23. I am excited for that day. Anyways, that's my Ri-bug in a quick little nutshell. He just completes our little family(for now) and we are so happy he is ours.
