River Bear's Favorite Things...

Making funny faces, "talking", laughing & smiling...
Toys like Coonie (pictured)...
Visiting Grandma's house...
Puppies & Binki of course...
Last but not least! Sleeping!!

These are just a few of River's favorite things as of now. I'm sure the list will get a little more interesting as he gets older.

Whipped Cream!


River has discovered Whipped cream! He LOVES the stuff, he laughs anytime I give him any. I think he is going to have a major sweet tooth. He almost attacks my finger when I give him the stuff! I tried to give him some rice cereal because he has really been acting interested in my food, but I think he is ruined. He hated the rice cereal and will only take little bites of whipped cream or pudding off my finger! Oops! I started the sugar a little to early I fear :s Hopefully when he starts eating more real foods he will like the non sweet stuff too!

The Funny Faces of River

He is getting so big! I love him :)
Not quite sure what this face was for?!
A happy fatty!! :)
Riv has the biggest eyes, they melt me!!

One of the first things River did when he was born was snort! It was so funny and shocking to everyone in the delivery room when he started to snort like a little pig, everyone just started to laugh! Ever since then he still snorts every once in awhile. Well the other day I decided I would snort back at him and he just went crazy laughing, it was hilarious! I had never seen him laugh for so long or so loud, so I told Tony to run and get the camera so we could record it. So enjoy, I hope it makes you smile and laugh too :)

Nakie Rivy





I have been practicing on my camera lately. As you can see River is always the model and doesn't always like it :) I'm also trying to work on my lighting as you can tell, but my cute subject makes up for the problems.

Jonny Jump Up


He doesn't quite get the jumper yet

River & his friend Alea (They are 4 days apart)




I got River a jumper, but I think he is still a little young for it. He doesn't jump he just kind of spins, but it is cute to watch. It makes me laugh whenever he is in it. The pic of him and Alea cracks me up because it looks like Riv just punched her and that is why she is crying! I love this video cause Riv gets such a suprised look on his face when Tony makes his noises.

River is 3 months old :)

My Sweet Angel
Yep...he smiles in his sleep! haha

I'm about a week late, but River is 3 months old now! He weighs about 12 lbs. He seems to be getting bigger everyday, especially in length. I think he is going to be long and lean like his papa. He gets more handsome everyday, and people are starting to say they see Tony in him. I am a little behind because I am back at work now. I am lucky enough to be able to take Riv with me, but it is kind of difficult trying to work and take care of him. We are making it work I guess, he is my work buddy :) Today I am actually supposed to be at work with him, but I think he may be getting a cold. He has been very upset all day and has a runny nose, so work didn't quite work today :( I just hope he gets feeling better.

Boogie Fell :(

One of the worst things happened tonight! My sweet little boy got hurt :( I was getting ready to fold the last bit of the laundry in Tony and I's room. I grabbed River and set him sitting up against a pillow in the middle of our king sized bed. Before I got started folding I figured that I would go grab him a toy to keep him entertained while I folded. I grabbed the toy which was in River's room just a few steps away and came back into my room, to my horror River was somehow on his tummy with his head and arms hanging off the side of the bed. My heart fell! But, then it got worse, our bedspread is a fabric with a sheen that makes it slippery :( :( :( All the sudden he just started slipping as soon as I turned the corner, I dropped the toy and ran to grab him. I was just to late though...he fell right on his head. Our bed is pretty high up so it made a loud thud. I grab him literally right after his head hit the floor. He started to scream! My heart was breaking for him, and I felt awful for leaving him, even just for a second. I checked him over, no bump or bruise but I was still nervous so I called my mom really quick. He had settled down pretty quick so I knew he must be okay. My mom told me to hurry and call my Dr.'s office before they closed just to see if there were any signs I should be looking for if he was hurt. I called and told them what happened, and that there was no sign of harm. They told me they thought he was probably fine but because he was so young they wanted him to come in anyway. So, I took him in to be checked and the Dr. said he was looking fine and told me a few signs I should look for tonight to make sure he is okay, but that he wasn't to concerned. I totally get bad mommy award! I still can't believe how fast he got from the middle of a king sized bed all the way to the side! Needless to say I feel HORRIBLE!!! I am so glad and blessed that he is okay. My poor boy :( When you love someone so much and do something that hurts them it just kills you. No more beds for River.
