Riley Blaine - Eight Months

04-01-2010

Height: 27"
Weight: 22 lbs.

Riley is getting to be such a big boy! He is sleeping from 7:30pm to 6:30am....or later! He is starting to find toys in his crib to occupy him when he wakes up at 7:00am on Saturdays. Riley is eating rice cereal, fruits and vegetables...with a few bottles mixed in. He got to try some new fruits this month! He likes oranges and cherries (blended of course!) Riley also got to try mashed potatoes on Easter...He wasn't too sure about them. Riley started sitting up by himself this month, and got his third tooth! He is trying to stand on his legs more, and is putting weight on them. I'm sure it won't be long before he is pulling himself up, and then walking. Riley also drank juice out of a sippy-cup for the first time....his drink of choice is white grape juice. This has been a busy month for Riley, as he went to Tulsa twice, and celebrated his first Easter. Jon and I thank God everyday for blessing us with such an incredible little guy.
