Saturday with Riley

Chad, Stacy and Riley came out to visit this past Saturday. I think we have been trying to get together for some time, however something always would come up. I was glad they were able to make it, allowing Baron and Riley to have some play time together. Maybe not play time yet, but possibly some bullying. Baron is at that stage where he likes to pull hair, steal Binky's, tackle, pinch and that's just naming a few. I think that we need to turn off the UFC, he 's getting too close to mastering the rear naked choke hold.

Ravioli Mouth

This was our first attempt to get Baron to eat some Ravioli and Spaghetti O's. We didn't have to do much convincing, not that we really ever have to with food.
What a mess...I guess that I am going to have to get used to that. Just erks me when he gets sooo messy. I would love to cover him with saran wrap first and then he can dig in. I noticed later as we were getting ready to give him his bath that there was sauce in his ear. Missed that one.

Bath Night

I love these naked posts. Rob won't let me do many of them because he doesn't want Baron's jewels shown to everyone but I keep telling him that I wouldn't let that happen. Once he saw this one, he knew we had to post it. It's almost identical to the one that Kristi/Phil posted of their daughter Charli except Baron waited to pee until he was in the water.
Baron loves bath night. Once I open his door, I don't think that his hands and legs can keep up with excitement. He crawls so fast into the bathroom, stands at the tub and if we don't come and put him in right away, he starts yelling for us.
Oh and he loves bubbles, especially when I put them on my face. Me...not so much.

Baby Corral

Peek - a - Boo

Although it's not the first time he's done this, it is however the first time that he has reacted with an action to what I was saying. I was quite proud the first time that he did it. My little boy playing peek-a-boo with me, I couldn't have been happier. Now it's pretty funny when I will be doing something and not paying attention to him, he will pull something up around his eyes and just wait for me to respond. Sometimes I wonder how long he has held it there.

Playin' in my PNP (Pack & Play)

Usually when Baron takes an afternoon nap, at least in the old days, we would put him in a bed with pillows surrounding him and he would sleep a good 3-3.5 hrs. That was great for Rob and I because it allowed for us to get so much work done. It all changed when he started crawling and was able to move around, so now he sleeps where he should, in his crib. The bad part about that is he only sleeps a good 1.5-2 hrs and Rob and I still need some time to get things done.

Solution? We put him in his PNP and he plays until we're ready or when he's really had enough. It's nice because we know that he's safe and don't have to keep that ever so watchful eye on him.

When we go to get him, we always sneak up to see what he's doing. Case in point, the video...
