I can't believe how time flies. I know I haven't posted in like....forever. But with the holidays it's been a whirlwind. I'm pleased to announce Riley is doing well with his Nam. No updates though as our appointments are just readjusting the stints and we actually got this past week off from going. Here is an update of what he looks like now:
The holidays were great but busy of course. My sister flew in the 18th of Dec. My hubby and I both worked so it was kind of crazy trying to visit and work plus take care of the kiddo but its so nice to have family around. Christmas Eve Tony's parents came over along with my parents. We had pizza for dinner and then his parents and us went for a walk to look at Christmas lights. Riley fell asleep almost immediately. Christmas day was nice. Before Tony's parents came over, Riley had his first stocking.....and then fell asleep and pretty much slept all day. We think he is going through another growth spurt. The 1st pic above is him before he passed out. The rest of us enjoyed opening our presents and preparing dinner. It was pretty much a Thanksgiving spread. It was very good and the turkey was moist. I got Wii Fit Plus for Christmas and everyone could not stop playing it.
The day after Christmas I went shopping with my mom and sister. Got some great stuff at Bath and Body Works. Love that store. After we got home, we ordered pizza again (going through a pizza phase I guess), watched Shrek 4 which I got for Christmas, and played more Wii Fit. The rest of the week I worked. Tony got sick and was very worried about Riley and I getting it but so far so good (fingers crossed). My parents, sister, Riley, and I went to Benihanas for dinner. It was delicious. We went to bed at 10 pm which sucked. I remember back in the day where I could stay up til the wee hours of the morning. I guess that's what happens when you become a parent :) Riley did roll over for the first time today on a completely flat surface and lying completely on his stomach. I missed it of course and he wasn't able to do it again. Within the past few weeks he has become very vocal and smiles away at people. It's so cute. I will be adding a bunch of photos to my facebook page with in the next few days so feel free to look at the rest of our photos we've taken this past month.

wow! riley looks big now :) sounds like a good holiday. Jer was bouncing at IRVS on New Years so I spent the evening with my friend Lyndsey who's boyfriend was also bouncing at the bar down the street. We went to a drag queen burlesque broadway show. It was like watching "the birdcage" but with more dancing and drinking. Needless to say it was quite entertaining :) miss you pal. I hope to visit after taxes
