Riley's First Overnight

This past week has seen a number of changes. Riley has started to really show recognition, smiling when she sees us, cooing when we talk to her, and asking for a beer in the evening. OK, not really asking for beer, she likes milk....

The smiles are incredible, and come at the right time. Just when you are about to loose your mind for lack of sleep, she hits you with a smile, and all is right with the world.

She is now six weeks old, and fitting nicely into the 3-6 month old jumpers. She seems so much bigger now. Even just three weeks ago, she still felt like an infant, but no more.

This weekend, we took her for her first overnight trip to see Grandma Sharon and Grandpa Peter in Sonoma, and unlike Laney, she didn't freak out and sleep under the bed. In fact, she was perfect, and enjoyed it thoroughly.
