...:::* Riley Joanna~ ONE MONTH OLD *:::...

March 27, 2013
Riley Joanna has been with us ONE MONTH already!!!

She's no longer a newborn :)
Although she made quite a cute one!

Memories & Milestones:
  • 2/27 you entered this world (in South Asia ;)) and our lives, and we couldn't be happier
  • You got to meet your big brother, Levi, that very same day
  • 2/28 we got to come home from the hospital with you
  • You like putting your hands on your face (like your big brother used to) but you do a great job not scratching your little face.
  • You have mastered "sucking" and do great with a pacifier
  • You have started sleeping really well at night already- YAY! At least 4 or 5 hours straight right off the bat :)
  • 3/1 sucked your thumb for the first time
  • You are a great little eater and only fuss when you are hungry or ocassionally gassy
  • You loop your fingers onto my shirt while eating- so sweet
  • 3/2 first trip to Starbucks at 3 days old :) Everyone was happy!
  • Your hiccups are awesome, you sound just like a squeaky toy, thus your brother and I have decided to name you "Squeaker" in the mean time.  He giggles so hard when you get them that he gets the hiccups himself. hehe.
  • You LOVE sitting in the sun
  • 3/18 Your brother gave you your first head butt, yikes! You handled it like a trooper.
  • First trip to the beach- @ Goa. 
  • You have already flown on 5 planes! Plenty more rides ahead :)
  • You have loved being on your belly since the day we brought you home and your little neck is so strong you can totally move it from side to side already.

Riley Jo ~ Our precious daughter,

Your quiet, peaceful, beautiful, tiny self has changed our lives in more ways than you can imagine... for the better!
Your Papa has never seen such a beautiful little girl in his whole life- and I agree and  never would have imagined pink could be so much fun. :)
You don't even have to do or say much and your big brother already adores you.
 He gives you bunches and bunches of kisses on your head and loves looking into your eyes.
You have had so many fun and exciting moments in your life, but our favorite "moment" is just having you by our side.

We are praying the Lord will continue to grow & sustain you,
as well as form in you a heart for Him.


~All Our Love~
Mama & Papa
