Ryker's Rules at 4 Months

Ryker's Rules

1. Blankie must be within arm's reach at all times.

2. I decide when I eat. Even if I'm clearly hungry, I will let you know when I'll allow the bottle to go in my mouth. If you misbehave, you will get milk in the eye as I spit the bottle from my mouth.

3. If I get a bath every night, I promise not to fuss during bath time unless you let the doctor stick me with a needle that day - then all bets are off.

4. When feeding my nightly vegetables, keep 'em coming in a steady stream of spoonfulls or I will stick my whole hand in my messy mouth, spit out half my food as I wail, and/or "accidentally" smack the bowl half way across the room.

5. No matter how much I've eaten, I must have my bottle after my bath.

6. I will not fall asleep unless I'm rocked while being tightly held for at least five minutes.

7. If you only wait 4 minutes and 50 seconds to put me down, I will let you know that you are misbehaving.
