Riley 8 Months

I can't believe she is 8 months already!

Riley has started to crawl.

She likes food. EVERYTHING. If you put her in her high chair, you better have food ready to go because she is ready to eat.

Big favorites are spaghetti squash, avacado, strawberries, grapes, steak, frozen blueberries, peas, cantalope, watermelon, and rice from Plaza Azteca.

She will also eat pretty much anything off the floor.

She totally notices if you are eating something different then her.

She makes this funny new noise, it kinda sounds like "Heh!" She will say it when she finds something fun on the floor to play with, or when she needs your attention.

She wants whatever Escher has at that moment. Snacks, juice, the kindle, Elly girl, You name it, she is into it.

Its fun to watch her little personality come out. Her latest nickname has been "Sweet Chunkers" but she definitely has a little fiery streak in her.

Playing Together

For the longest time, I worried that Riley and Escher were not going to get along. Adding her to our family was quite the adjustment for all of us, and the only interaction they had for the longest time was the classic "walk and kick" that Escher would do as he would run by her lying on the floor.



However, as Riley grows, so does her personality, and Escher, for the most part, thinks she is hilarious.

Her new found mobility has put her in places that Escher thinks is hilarious.

"Mom, Riley is stuck under the couch!"

"MOM! Riley is eating stuff off the floor again!"

Riley is one tough cookie. Escher rolls all over her, shoves her away from his toys, and drags her by her hands away from things.

She doesn't care. Most of the time she just shakes it off and keeps going.

She just wants to be by her big brother.

Its going to be fun to watch them grow and interact together.
