Should we be encouraging this???

Like father, like son!!

"Mom get out of the way I am watching the game!!"


So we have decided that Reilly likes the TV, as I am sure most babies do. I feel really bad putting him in front of it but he really likes the colors and the sounds. Now, he does prefer Sponge Bob of all things and an occasional Baby Einstein, however Billy is thrilled to report that he has a new football buddy.



Everything is great here, Reilly is doing awesome. He gets up only once in the night to eat (knock on wood!!), some days he makes it until 5 in the morning!! We go to the Dr. this Thursday for this 2 month check up, I am dreading the shots!!!

Our First Family Vacation


Reilly is ready to go at the zoo...the hat is a little big but we are not used to the sun!!
Just hangin with Dad


We had to get a picture with an elephant in the background for the elephant theme in Reilly's room!


Uncle Brady and Aunt Margaret

Someday we will actually make it to the sand and in the ocean!





Billy and Montana

The two best babysitters EVER! McKenna and Mikaela



We survived our first Family Vacation! We packed Reilly up in the car and headed off to see family in San Diego and Orange County for a few days. Our first stop was to see Uncle Brady and Margaret. We had a great time just enjoying the nice weather, Reilly hardly knew what to do with himself with real sunlight and fresh air! The 110 degree heat at home has made it a little tough to get out! We visited old friends, walked around Del Mar, did a little shopping (Mom managed to survive all by herself!) and took our first trip to the Zoo. Reilly was awesome and just loved being outside.

Our next stop was to see the Does up in Huntington Beach. We had a GREAT time, the girls would not leave Reilly's side! They are going to be great cousins! Billy got to go golfing with Montana, even though he got beat by a 14 year old he had a great time! We are fully expecting to see the Does here for Thanksgiving!

While in Orange County we also got to go see the Seager clan. We had a wonderful time sitting out on aunt Sue's back patio while all of Billy's cousins played "lets hold the baby"...Mom and Dad were thrilled to just sit and visit for a while!!!

We survived the trip home, but are definitely tired and now need a vacation from our vacation. Grandpa Ted had knee surgery yesterday so Reilly had to go up and take care of him for a while...things seem to be going well but as you can all expect my dad hasn't sat down yet!!

Thanks for the Paci Auntie Kelsey

We are working on getting more photogenic, I swear I don't know how they do it in greeting cards and pictures...he always looks so dazed!!
So when Kelsey was in town a few weeks ago she insisted that Reilly get a paci with the animal attached...needless to say he loves his ducky. And since he is now so eloquently referred to as Froggy we needed to find one with a frog on it...we found them and bought two!!

Grandma Sue Comes to Town

Reilly admiring his Grandma Sue

Sorry aunt Katie, I know you didn't want this picture published but we just couldn't resist

Wide awake!

Hanging with mommy before bed time

With Grandma and Grandpa Doe in Minnesota for the week we could not have Reilly go through Grandparent withdrawals...fortunately Billy's mom is here for a while! We are having a great time laughing at all of the interesting things babies do! I guess I never thought the wall 5 feet away from the changing table could be considered a danger zone...I will give further details upon request! Reilly is doing really well sleeping at night, anywhere between 4 to 6 hours at a time (fingers crossed we will continue to head in the right direction!)
