Performer

Riles had turned into a performer.  He loves company, cameras ... anyone who tells him he's the cutest.  The other morning he was pulling out his sulky face and crocodile tears and I just had to whip out the camera to get huge cute smiles.  Oh man.
 

Mothers day bfast at nannys with my mom and si's mom/aunts and nanny as well.  Riley was in heaven!

 Loves his nana

 Nanny gave him his first ice cream cone. 

 Loved it

 We planted some sticks last fall when he was just a lump... both are blooming!

 Downtown day with the family.

 Performing with nanny!

 I'm just SO happy nanny!

Other progressions: He's now able to look for things that aren't immediately obvious.  e.g. give him a book and say find the zebra, he'll look through it until he sees it.  Si's dad has taught him to find the clock in every room, so there's a lot of "tick tock"ing every time we enter a new home as he hunts for the clock.

He's walking a ton although also falling over.  He loves the climb things and we regularly find him on top of the coffee table or kitchen table.  On the (seriously) two sunny days we have had so far we just stripped him naked and he sat in the front yard with me gardening and eating dirt.  Efficient and cute, although he'll hate me for it one day when our neighbours tease him!

The weather sucks.  Rainy mays are the worst.  One of our few sunny days below
