Ellie and Ryleigh's Toys

Don't know what it is, but Ellie likes Ryleigh's toys...

Sitting Up....(sort of)

We have really been working with Ryleigh on sitting up. She can sit up for a few seconds usually before plopping over if she is not sitting still. She must be taking after her daddy who took forever to sit up! haha

Rice Cereal...Spoon Style

At Ryleigh's Dr's appointment today, the Dr. said for us to start giving Ryleigh rice cereal by spoon. She has already had rice cereal in her bottle for a couple of months now, but since we are introducing solids, we are giving her practice with the rice cereal for the spoon and texture. We will probably start veggies on Monday or Tuesday...video on that to come! :) She did really good the 2 times I spoon fed her the rice cereal today.



Must have been good! These same 2 fingers always end up in her mouth!

6 Months Old!!!

Ryleigh was 6 months old yesterday!!! Time flies when you have a child! It is hard to believe our little girl is growing so fast! We took her to her 6 month Dr's appointment today. She was 17 pounds 9 ounces, 26 1/2 inches long and her head was 17 1/2. She is in the 75th percentile for her height and weight and in the 95th percentile for her head size. Needless to say, she had a good report today. She didn't like the shots too much and we think her little legs were bothering her this evening. Poor thing got 2 in her left leg and 1 in her right...she did good after the nurse gave her the shots. She only cried for a few minutes after Jarred picked her up. By the way, I won the bet with Jarred on Ryleigh's weight...I guessed 17 lbs 8 oz and he guessed 18 pounds...ha!
Here are a few pics and videos from yesterday and today -

Cute Girl Clothes

I got in trouble today when I found Ryleigh some cute spring clothes! I just had to try them on her when I got home. All of the cute girl clothes are just too hard to resist! :)

Daddy & His Girl

We have been enjoying the warmer weather, getting outside in the evenings when we get home from work. I have especially liked not having to put long pants and long sleeves on Ryleigh and showing off her "Michelin" body, cute hands and chubby feet. I managed to get a couple of pictures of Jarred and Ryleigh (after I twisted his arm!).

Ryleigh and Her Jumpee...AGAIN!

Ryleigh loves this thing! She is non-stop jumping now. And she's good at playing with the toys around her too! She jumps on her toes, which does not seem very comfortable...

Jumpeeee

Ryleigh is getting better at playing in her jumpee from Mimi and Pap Paw.

Ryleigh and Her Voice

All of a sudden, Ryleigh has figured out she can yell. Yesterday, she went on and on almost at the top of her lungs! We got a very small taste of it on video...

We Have Found Our Feet

This past weekend Ryleigh found her feet and they made it to her mouth! When she has socks on, she grabs her socks and moves her legs. She gets them going sometimes and it's quite funny!

Our Day Off

Some pics and videos of Danielle and Ryleigh's day off together on Friday. Ryleigh was napping (or at least was supposed to be) and I heard her "talking" and moving around. I peeked in on her...

Dancin'

Ryleigh likes to "dance". Sometimes she just goes to town movin' and a shakin'.

Ryleigh and Her Hat

Memaw bought Ryleigh this cute pink polka dot hat. She has the one-piece bathing suit with ruffles to match...more pics of that coming later when swim suit season starts! :-)

5 Months Old!

It's hard to believe but Ryleigh was 5 months old yesterday!

We Love Our Bunny

Ryleigh loves swatting and now grabbing and pulling down her bunny above her papasan chair. She one-hands it and grabs it down. She cheats a lot though and before I can even put the bunny back, she has it in her hand. She is getting really good at using her hands.
