At the end of another day

After a nice bath and all the excitement of getting spoilt, Riley does what he does best....Until 2am that is!

Already got the ladies spoiling him

"Thanks to my aunties Gail, Lily and Sharmane at The Hardy Boys for spoiling me with some nice prezzies"

Squeaky Clean

All nice and clean after his bath. Young man loves the water and the dummy. You can also see in this pic that the cord has fallen off.

Time flies...

"Hello everyone. I'm a week old today. My cord fell off this morning too. Before you know it - I'll be walking and talking."

A little bit of history

That's me and Jessica. We met about 9 years ago and have been going out since July 24th 1999. We got engaged on New Years Eve (31 Dec 2006). In the process of buying a house and planning the wedding. Pretty soon we're gonna be a family in our own home. Will keep you all updated on that.

Safe N Sound

Jessica and Riley were discharged from Parklands Hospital on Friday, January 26th. They stayed at Jessica's house til Sunday and now they're here with my family. Check out the "Rescue Pup" outfit. Str8 up gangsta yo! What's that hand sign. Is he a Crip or a Blood? Nah looks like he's saying "Eastside"

After a long day of Blogging

"Can I get some rest now? "

The proud grandparents

Jessica with her mother. This is my mom and dad with the little guy.

My 15 seconds of fame

Yeah I know it's da litey's website, but check me out. 12:50pm, October 4th, 1975. Aweh!

Check those keyboard fingers

This is Jessica's favourite picture of Mini-Me™. For those who don't know, I chose his first name from my musical mentor, Teddy Riley. It was either him or DJ Quik but Jess didn't like the names Teddy, DJ, or Quik - so Riley is his name. He's gonna bring back the New Jack Swing!

We are family!

First contact after the paediatricians stamp of approval.

Oh that reminds me. Big thanks to Doctors Strang, Hicks, Brenner and Roos at Parklands Hospital. And all the nursing staff in the Nursery and Maternity wards. Much appreciated.

Let's hear it for the boy

9am, Tuesday, January 23, 2007 - 3.255kg, 52cm. It doesn't hit you, til it HITS you!

A fourth dimension?

The wonders of modern technology. The first time we got to see Riley's features. The 4D scan! Wow! I thought we only had 3 dimensions, x, y and z.

It's a boy!

Hey everyone. I know, I know. I've always said a blog is a lazy mans website. But for something like this I think it's the quickest and easiest way to keep everyone on track with what's happening in Riley's life everyday. This is just a "setup" post to get started. Back later with loads more.
