Dinner @ the Gigstead's

Well after all the deliberations about the weather I think Sunday was a much nicer day, at least at our house, don't know about EPCOT.

But, everything happens for a reason and having our lasagna dinner on Sunday meant we not only got to see Andy, Nikki and Riley but Chris also joined us. So we had a big family dinner. Had lasagna (well it was a lasagna dinner), garlic bread, salad and brownies for dessert. Riley enjoyed it all. He actually started with some chex mix and cheerios just to tide him over.

Riley also learned how to climb up on the fireplace hearth, not a good thing because of course everything around that area is hard and pointy just waiting for a little boy's head to come crashing down. He was so proud of himself we all had to laugh and smile at him so it is hard to make him realize he shouldn't be doing this.

We had a really good time. Riley kept us all amused. We could tell he has gotten taller because he is able to reach things now that he couldn't before. The pictures on top of the CD holder are no longer safe but Riley is learning what "no" means. Not much fun for him but will make our life easier.

Riley also had his one year check-up this week. He got six shots, they bothered Nikki (and would have bothered me if I had been there) more then Riley. He is weighing in at 21 pounds and has the start of a lucky belly. Don't think he will rival Andy's lucky belly because Andy had a much earlier start on his.
