So anyone that doesn't believe caffeine is passed on through breast milk, please see exhibit A here. I stopped drinking caffeine when I was pregnant excluding having 1 cream soda a week as a treat, and I switched to caffeine free all natural cream soda once Riley was born. But yesterday I was craving a Starbucks Chai Tea Latte, so this energy you see here is from the caffeine left over from my latte yesterday in his 1st feeding this am. He's been going non-stop since then! And when I say non-stop - I mean kicking, jumping, shrieking! I put him down in his bed and his legs were going non-stop! He reminded me of myself when we used to go out, and I'd have to beg Kelly to let me dance to ONE MORE SONG because it's my FAVORITE song! And I'd say that about 10 times before he'd finally make me leave! So I can empathize with where Riley's coming from on this one! Therefore, I gave in and brought him down to play in his jumperoo - hoping it would help him burn the energy off. That didn't exactly work the way I thought it would! If anything, it just got him MORE wound up! And as you can see - he's over being intimidated by his jumperoo! Now he literally jumps so high in it, I SWEAR his bottom comes out of the seat! It looks like he's going to give himself whiplash sometimes!
To put this into perspective, this is the time of day when Riley should be taking his 2nd nap. He had already missed his 1st 2 hr nap, and as you'll see he's showing NO signs of slowing down anytime soon. Update - I'm happy to report he finally crashed and burned a few minutes ago. I'm wondering if we'll actually have to wake him up from this nap!
