I've got a few minutes...
I'm still at work, burning a DVD. I realize i've been neglectful in updates other than photos.
A little trick we picked up from Pam and Brian and Tyler seems to be paying off. While we brush teeth for the evening, we sing the ABC song. Twice, so we're sure she brushes her teeth well. She even brushes faster when you sing the song faster.
Last night we noticed she was singing more than brushing. She can do most of the ABC song. counting from 1 to 10 has been happening for a few weeks now, but she still skips 5 a lot.
the obcession with The Lion King has changed. Here's the breakdown of the shows Riley watched until we could stand it no more.
Doodlebops.
Little Einsteins.
The Lion King.
Pig. (Charlotte's Web)
Finding Nemo.
Chicken Little.
Scattered in there are pockets of watching Elmo in Grouchland over and over. And Einsteins probably plays at least 3 times a day over the weekend, just so we can clean house and get stuff done.
In other news, Riley's bedroom officially is crib free. Two weekends ago, we took her crib out and put in her dresser. While she still gets up and out of bed as soon as we finish singing and/or prayers, we quickly close the door behind us. She'll ususally cry for about 2 minutes, but then she'll climb back into bed and calm down. In fact, sometimes she'll just lay there quietly for a half hour or more. I've gone in to cover her up, thinking she's asleep, and she's merely just laying there.
Food wise, Riley continues to be a picky eater, but we're slowly getting her to eat more and more meat. Hot Dogs usually go down well. She's also usually against eating what's on her plate, but will eat it if it comes off of our plates.
we're still working on Potty training. Usually before a bath, she'll ask to go potty, but we set her on the ring on the stool and she sits there and just looks at us and laughs. It might not be too long though, before she's potty trained.
Well, my DVD is about done burning. So I'll wrap this up.
Won't be long before Duece is here.
OH! We've narrowed it down to two first names. Brennon or Cooper.
We've probably decided to wait until he's born, take a look at the kid and decide. So it's possible for a while he may be named "Baby Boy Boye." Awesome.
