Here is your pic! How could I forget the fact that my Rae is sitting!

Trying to get used to this blogging thing. Can't quite get the pics to do what I want when I insert them. Realized that blogs are way cuter with pictures, but for someone that is always taking pictures, every time I wanted to take a picture in the last few days, it was just too hard. The camera was in the car, in the house, didn't have batteries, didn't have memory...so here is a post with no pictures!
Another thing I have to get used to is spreading out the posts. I had a couple of ideas over the last few days, so in lieu of pictures, I will post them all now- in hopes that I will have something to write in the next few days.
First, Rae is not responding to antibiotics. As soon as she is off, she is sick again. She has been on antibiotics for 30 days...I think that is unusual. She was off for two- and the runny nose and stuffiness and coughing is back. It could be worse, and I am sure another ear infection is soon to follow, but I am more concerned about the fact that meds can't kick this thing! We are going back to the doctor tomorrow. Don't worry about the hundreds of dollars in co-pays at the doctor's office and pharmacy that I have spent in the last month...
Dylan, on the other hand, is awesome! This kiddo is on the verge of sentences. I just know it. In the last few days he busted out "gosh!", football, bus, Manny, Tools, Pat, Eyore, Ben, Brian, plane, all of the color words, "night night baby rae rae," and "Ro Ro basketball shoot the." :) In the past week, Dylan has decided to sleep with the following: his crocs, two different kinds of balls, his cars, and Handy Manny. Today I went to a preschool co-op meeting for little Dyl-man! Here's hoping he can be in the 2-3 class next year! I really liked the fact that it was two hours, parents helped teach, and it was only twice a week. A few things have to fall into place for it to work out, so keep your fingers crossed for me! I can't believe that he is getting so big!
Now on to me...Rae barfed on my phone, and then I proceeded to drop it in my coffee. I also spilled a glass of water on my chicken that I had out for dinner. It has been quite the clumsy day. I have a feeling I will be posting quite a bit about tv. Very excited to watch Lost tonight. Weirdly intrigued by last week's Kendra. Kendra mentioned that she had one week to get ready for a photo shoot twelve weeks after the baby was born. I really like this show because a lot of it is filmed in Carmel this year- and she had a baby not long after me. It makes me feel good to see that she still has a baby belly just like the rest of us after she gave birth. Plus, I like her and Hank. This week I felt good about the fact that she stated she was 144 the week of the photo shoot and she can only be about 5 foot 3. However, I was a little annoyed that she didn't tell us that the picture that was on the cover of the magazine must have been airbrushed...She is usually so honest! There was no way that she lost that weight in one week. My friend across the street said that her husband bought her that magazine in order to "motivate" her to lose her baby weight. I am hoping she is making him watch this season (promise it is really my friend- Dan wouldn't do that:)). Finally, I was pretty ticked when Hank said that he "let go of the ball when he heard the ref say blue ball and somehow it was saint's ball." Just admit you ruined it for everyone Hank! I had to cautiously watch this episode while Dan was playing outside with Dylan. He would have been PISSED!
That's all for now. I will post pics next time!

Don't Sleep On It...
Welcome to My Friends Dylan and Rae! I sing that to the tune of "My friends Tigger and Pooh!" We watch a lot of Tigger and Pooh around here. The next line to that song is "They're always there for each other." Very appropriate! Today Dylan fell down, kinda did the fake cry thing, and looked at Rae and I laying on her playmat. When I said "Come here Dylan, I will give you a hug," he walked toward us, and chose to give Rae a hug instead. Toooooo Cuuuute! He felt better and went on playing :).
Soooo... Here is my first blog! Don't get too excited (Jen, Katie, and Mom), I am not sure how often I will be able to keep up with it. BUT, I hope to keep you updated with funny stories, cuteness, and pictures!

Danny has started using the phrase "don't sleep on ___________." It basically means, don't forget about, don't underestimate, don't fail to appreciate. Here are a few things that am going to put on my "Don't Sleep On" list today...
Don't sleep on the dollar menu at any drive thru. It is not only a lifesaver in a situation where your child can't quite make it all the way home, but a moneysaver as well!
Don't sleep on the DVR. I really can't live without it. I am a tv person, and have a list of shows I watch on a regular basis. RIP my season of How I Met Your Mother- which I was saving to watch in succession (lord knows when...) that was deleted when we switched out DVR boxes. I was given one week to watch everything that I had on my DVR- or it was gone. Forever. Not an easy task.
Don't sleep on Rae holding her own bottle! The newest accomplishment of one Rae Riego. Dylan has become a little jealous during feeding time, and tonight tried to climb up on my lap while I was feeding her. He then proceeded to fall off my lap in slow motion as I tried to catch him with my...foot. It didn't work. He looked up at me from the floor for a brief moment before the crying started. I put Rae down on the floor with her bottle so I could pick him up, and to my surprise, she held her bottle and finished it on her own! Amazing!
