Everyone wants to know about Riley! Okay, Okay, sorry for the delay. He had his first doctor's visit with
Dr. Lee this week (2-week checkup) and his stats are:
Weight: 9lb. 1 oz (50%)
Length: 20.5 (40%)
Head Circumference: 37cm (45%)
He sleeps a lot. At night he is sleeping 5-6 hours, which is awesome! He is sleeping in our room so feeding him is quick, but he has to burp. He burps like a man and its a must or he gets fussy. This means one of us actually has to really wake up after a feeding, but I've been giving this duty to Jeff, because I really need my rest ;-)
In regards to his likes and dislikes....

He likes Cameron and she likes him. We've really not had any problems with Cameron except a few times first thing in the morning. She sometimes wakes up at the same time as Riley and I have to feed him. She gets upset because this is usually Mommy time for her and will cry and try to push Riley away. Luckily he eats quick and I can give her the attention she needs.

He likes Daddy. Riley likes to be warm and so snuggling with Daddy causes him to go right to sleep. So when he does get upset and isn't hungry he goes to Daddy because this will put him right out.

He does not like baths. I'm not giving up hope though, Cameron did not like her first bath either. I think this goes back to him wanting to be really warm, I think he likes his baths to be warmer than that little temperature gauge says, but right now we are playing it safe.

And he does not like tummy time. He can lift his head and we are encouraging him to do this but its not going well. He gets on his tummy and in about a minute he starts to fuss. He gets so mad. Cameron has tried to be encouraging and tells him "its okay" and although he likes her, he is yet trusting her on this topic.
