1:12 p.m.

That's the time that Riley had her first bottle of the day today.

Yipeeeeeeeee

I am trying to wean her from the bottle. She loves, loves, loves her bottle, about as much as Jack loves his thumb. She's doing pretty good, in my opinion. We ran errands all morning while Jack was at summer camp and I just kept handing her a milk-formula mixture in her sippy cup and she didn't mind it. I hope this continues. We'll see how she does the next couple of weeks and if she hasn't given it up totally by the time we get back from the beach on July 8th, she'll go through baby boot camp!!

Jack has one more day of camp, this Wednesday. He loves it and they tire him out big time. He usually passes out in his chair in the playroom after camp.

We're having Riley's first birthday this weekend. Although she doesn't turn one until the 29th, I wanted to have her a party here before we head down to the beach. She's cruising on furniture and crawling like a rock star, finally. She waves now (another finally) and is so much fun. I am anxious for her to have some new toys to play with. I think she's getting tired of the baby rattles and stuff like that.

Gotta run and get some stuff done while they're napping/resting.

Until next time...
