Mid-Summer Photo Flood

Riley writes his name these days . He also types it out on the keyboard very well. He knows all the letters and seems to have a knack for spelling. Gets that from Mom no doubt. :-D




These pictures were all taken at Happy Hollow in San Jose. One of Riley's friends had his fourth birthday there. The last time we went there he was about 18 months old and he rode that car ride. It was the first carnival ride that he ever rode. He did much better with it on this trip, as the pictures shows. The first time he cried his head off.
Mom, Dad and Ri-Ri get ready to enjoy some 4th of July fireworks on "The Oval" at Stanford.



This is Ri's 4th Birthday party. It all went very well except for the singing of "Happy Birthday". That would be Riley hiding under the table crying about the singing. He was able to recover after we let him open a present. He is just not the, center-of -attention kind of kid right now. He doesn't understand that if he is wearing that cute Hawaiian shirt , he can't avoid it.
