one month

Tuesday marked ONE MONTH for Riley. Just in this last week I feel like he has changed so much. He has started getting an attitude and it is so cute. He gets really stubborn and does not want to sleep when he is tired so he just whines. Its funny.
Look how big he is now
one month
one week


Other than Riley crying more often we had a fun week.

Holly and Ella came to visit!!
Holly is one of my roommates from college and we have been great friends since.  Her, her husband, Creed, and their baby girl, Ella (8 months), live in Boise, ID

We are already planning their marriage.  Riley is all for it. See how he's trying to put his arm around her? (smooth bud).  Im not sure Ella is too happy about it though....




Father's Day
This is what Riley gave Thayne

Riley wore his USU tie for dad

This is what Riley gave Grandpa Mickelson.
I also made a sign that said "only the best dads get promoted to grandpa"


Aunt Abi is the best

Watching the game with his uncles

Great Grandma Mickelson hand quilted this quilt for Riley. it has a horse on it. We love it! Thanks Grandma!

Thayne's awesome farmers tan
He is smiling more and more. He is so much more aware of his surroundings

Having too much fun!

Well this last week seemed to be a challenge. I took Riley in for his 2 week appointment and even though I thought he was getting bigger, he wasn't gaining any weight at all.  So then I realized I wasn't producing enough for him so we are now just formula feeding him. He already was a little bit refluxy but now just on the formula he has been really bad with not just spitting up but throwing up his entire bottle before his next one. So now we have changed formulas and it is a little bit better. I just feel bad for the kid because he always has this tummy ache and it makes him more fussy and he doesn't get as much sleep. But he's still as cute as ever!!
The Aceves family are our neighbors and these little girls can't get enough of Riley

Bath time! See his how one leg is tucked and the other is stretched out? He is always doing this.
First time going for a walk in out stroller. He loves it and sleeps the whole time.
this is how we take naps
Skyping grandma and grandpa! My mom wanted to jump through the computer screen! Can't wait til she comes!

How we entertain Riley (notice how the screen is on the Utah State website)

First time Uncle Hayden held Riley

First time on the love sac! 

helping mommy with the laundry


First of many trips to footlocker with dad!

what a proud father to be taking his son in the Spectrum (Thayne was upset that we weren't at a b-ball game) 
Uncle Hayden graduated!!


Austin is not posing for this picture. Thats how i bought him standing. He says its comfortable haha

Uncle E loves holding Riley. He fights for him...seriously
 I love taking pictures of him when he is sleeping!
This is how Thayne found him, covering his eyes
This is how i find Riley just chilling sometimes. One arm behind his head



And this is how I find Thayne just chilling sometimes. Love my boys!

Riley's first church outfit. Yes I made it and yes it took me forever1 I kept sewing the front of the onsie to the back. It was funny.

  He sure did look like a stud! (as soon as we got home from church he puked and peed all over his outfit but we made it 3 hours! haha)
