We had a big day here in the Bartlett household!
(1) We started swim lessons with Riley. Now, because I'm in the pool with her, I couldn't take any pictures of her during her actual lessons, so I just grabbed a quick shot before we left for the pool. Oh and the only way I can get her to sit still these days is to hand her a toy, which is why there is a monkey in her face. :)

She LOVED swimming. Love love loved it. And she was the star of the show as well. I wasn't sure what to expect, as I'd never been to this pool before, but it was perfect for her. It was indoor, and the class was small, and the pool is only open for swim lessons so there were only 10 people in the whole pool while we were there. And Riley was the only baby that didn't cry when getting in the pool, and didn't cry when water was poured over her head, and basically just didn't cry the whole time, she was happy as can be! And apparently swimming is tiring work, as she took a 2 hour nap when we got home!
(2) RILEY HAS A TOOTH!!!! I was pretty sure she had been teething, but then again I thought she was teething months ago, and no teeth had appeared. But at the end of last week there were a couple nights where she woke up screaming and she was just inconsolable, which doesn't ever happen, and we gave her some tylenol and then she slept through after that. So then today as I was feeding her lunch, and I saw a little white-ish spot, and sure enough, it's a sharp little tooth poking through!! I would love to get a picture of it, but there's absolutely no chance of that happening, so you'll have to just trust me.
(3) Riley finally pooped. Exciting, I know. She hadn't pooped in almost 4 days, and before that the longest she had ever gone without pooping was a day, so this was a LONG time for her. We gave her a splash of apple juice last night, and sure enough, at 5 this morning I got a lovely (read: gross and messy) surprise! No picture to go along with this one either. You're welcome.
(4) Crawling! She's really figured it out, and I know she's going to be getting into everything now. And now that she can crawl, and she moves all over the place, and she sits up, she now topples over and takes more spills. This morning she smacked her head on a dresser, and did a huge face plant into the carpet, but she didn't cry either time! She's a tough little cookie. I took this video yesterday before she really started crawling, and um, please ignore my super annoying voice if you do decide to watch it. :)

That's about it. Now the real adventure begins with our little crawler!
