6 months: week 3 ... a late posting.

Milestones/Developments:



Riley has been perfecting her accomplishments from the past 6 months working out the kinks..she is sitting taller, standing stronger..and longer and scooting faster!


she is SO close to crawling i know i have been saying this the past 2 posts put it is coming this week! i know it is... if not she is going to be walking.


She is definitely a talker. this girl LOVES to hear herself and i would have to say (yes i know i am going to sound very much like a mother here) it is the most amazing sound in the world. Listening to her carry on a conversation with herself, her toys and with you is absolutely my favorite thing to listen to.



Scoot-to-sit

Riley's Newest accomplishment! this afternoon i was outside watering the plants on the patio and she was playing inside on her floor mat (the corner of the house is one big sliding glass door...so i could watch her) ...so i watered the plants then walked back inside and she was sitting up. i didn't think too much of it i thought maybe i was just irresponsible and left her sitting (i don't do that EVER but it didn't cross my mind that she could sit on her own) So i laid her back down on her tummy and walked into the kitchen to do the dishes and i looked up at her and caught her in the act of sitting up all by her self...and actually going from the lay position to the sit position! totally wasn't expecting that for another month or so...needless to say i am very proud of my big girl!.. after that she proceeded to try and crawl pushing herself up and holding herself there for a good minute! almost! i give her another 3 days and she will be crawling.



in this video she cheats a little and pushes off of me. i did NOT help her! she can do it all by herself she just gets distracted by mommy and camera. still i am very proud of her!


Adventures:





Talent Show

Hayden's summer camp had a talent show on Wednesday, where each different age group did a different skit as well as some individual skits. Hayden told us a week before that she was hula hooping in the talent show so i made sure to be there to cheer her on...well...she didn't hula hoop at all ...lol. but it was still cute. Riley absolutely loved it and interacted with every child, song and movement until she wore herself out she passed out in my arms.





these clips are from her age group and then the entire camp...and of course Riley is cheering them on!

baby Leah
Riley has had a couple of play dates with baby Leah this week the most recent was

Sunday. Meghan, David and baby Leah came down and we went into Cocoa and planned on going to the beach but the babies decided it was nap time so we went and got some food instead and came back home.



The babies play so well together and once again it is so amazing to see them interact. Riley likes to watch her older friend and learn from her how to do things.





Riley and Uncle Grandpa

yes a horrible name for him but he has decided he is too young to be a grandpa so we added the uncle part to make him sound young and well now it just sounds awkward. anyways, Riley and "uncle" grandpa got to bond this week, i can't even begin to explain how awesome it is to see my father play with and love on Riley. It is one of the most amazing feelings in the world.
