An update

NO witty title today, my brain is hurty. It's been a busy couple of weeks with me going back to work and all and Jim has been a peach in doing a few updates where he can but he's the quiet one one in the 'fam so I'll give you all healthy update on what's been going on in Cook Central.

Riley got his first shiner this week- after a good romp with Jim at The Little Gym, Jim dropped him off at school and no sooner did he pull outta the parking lot he got a call that Riley slipped and cracked his cheek/eye on a bookshelf. Poor kid...he's getting brave and trying to walk but is still a bit cautious. (apparently, not cautious enough, ha ha)

See my black eye? (well, it's more yellow gray at this point)



Riley is doing great at daycare- they love him and he seems to really enjoy it. Although, I did drop him off on Thursday (*I had off from school for Rosh Ha-sha-nah nah nah) for a few hours so I could get some work done and he had a total hypervenilating meltdown. It sucked, to say the least, and I stayed around for a few minutes to calm him down but his caregivers and I decided that it was best for me to leave. They were right- he stopped crying a few minutes after I left.

Deville turned ONE last week...wooo hoooo! Jim was teaching Riley all week to point his index finger to the question, "Guess who's turning one" for Deville's party and he did it umpteenth times only to turn into Michigan J. Frog once again. Riley sure is one independent little guy- he won't do anything on command if he doesn't feel like it. Or maybe it's just stage fright?

Deville and his cool new table and chompin' his cookie:

Auntie Erika & the birthday boy!


Up next in the batter's box for first birthdays is Sir Riley...wow, time really did fly by quicker than I don't know what!

In bigger and better news...Riley has a new BFF to hang with! Mr. Gibson Pierce made his way into the world last Friday afternoon and he is an absolute cutie. Hip hip hooray to the new and improved Pierce Family! Liz made us smuggle Riley into the hospital room so Riley got to meet his new little buddy (He poked him in the nose).



This is Riley after a solid day or bday partyin' and hospital visitin':
