Riley has been doing great. He's sleeping a lot better at night, some nights he'll surprise us and sleep 8 or 9 hours. I'll wake up first and wonder what's wrong lol.
He's starting to eat rice cereal! We started putting it in a bottle and really water it down. Now he'll take it from a spoon at a thicker consistancy. It's so cute! He grabs the spoon and tries to feed himself. More often than not his hand ends up more in his mouth than the spoon does. But he'll eat almost the whole 2 ounces formula/2 tablespoons of rice.
We've taken him on two trips to the park. We've just walked him in the stroller and he falls asleep about half way through the walk. Yesterday we had him out in the yard here at home, he had a good time. Touched the grass for the first time and grabbed a nice big hand full and ripped it out of the ground lol.
He's holding himself upright pretty well now. He can't sit by himself but he's getting close. Tummy time is also going well, he can roll from his back to his tummy, and occasionally he can roll himself back. He gets really into it! He kicks his legs like he's on a mission and some day very soon he's going to crawl. He gets his knees in the right position but he doesn't know what to do with his arms.
I've decided not to have a booth at the Maple Syrup Fest this year, so we'll be able to take Riley and yard sale, walk around the craft show and all that good stuff this year. Hope to get some nice baby stuff this summer with all the yard sales and mom 2 mom sales. Riley is going to his first mom 2 mom sale this Saturday =)
I have a carrier that he can hang out in while I walk around, we've only tried it once but we're going to try it again so I won't need to carry the carseat. He can't quite sit up in carts yet either.
He also had his 4 month checkup a couple weeks ago. He's 18 pounds and 25.5 inches long! He's still in the 80-90 percentile for his height/weight.
Here's a couple pictures of our play time outside yesterday.
