Riley walking at the horse showAnother fabulous Memorial Day weekend passed us by. We spent it drinking and being merry with the family. We got smart this year and invited everyone over to our house to cut down on the double-dinner problem we have with every holiday. The weather held out and Riles enjoyed being the center of attention.

Sunday we spent the morning watching Courtney at a horse show. It was Riley’s first horse show and he seemed to love it. He’s a big fan of animals and loved to meet Calvin. Courtney rode beautifully even if Calvin was running a bit hot at the beginning.

This weekend Riles really took to mobility. He seemed to have figured out how to quickly get from point A to point B by rolling side to side. Its fun to watch him want something, ponder how to get there, then attempt to get there, adjust plans, and finally figure out a way to move. He’s never been one for laying down so the sooner he gets mobile the happier he is. He’s also become quite the sitter too. We can finally sit him down on the ground and he won’t immediately fall over. He’s learned the hard way about falling over. We’ve had our fair share of head bangs. But it appears that after all the bumps and bruises he’s finally get it down.
