Riley loves her new tent!

Walking--->Running

While I was in Boston to watch the Red Sox win the World Series (OK, really on business, but I did see the people gathering for the parade after the team returned), Riley started to walk more than a few steps at a time. She can now walk across the room without falling.
It is pretty funny to watch. She holds her arms up for balance, kind of like bird wings, then starts to walk, slowly at first, but then picks up speed and either catches herself and slows down, or falls down.
Tonight, she tried walking backwards, but didn't get very far.

Very soon, she will be running, and running out of sight.

Baseball!

A little late, but Riley was rooting for the Red Sox...

Riley is digging her new bike, in fact, she has already learned to "ride" it back and forth in the house.

Here's Riley doing a little assisted walking. Seems google squashed the video a bit, so the image is a bit distorted, but you get the idea....BTW, she loves to walk, and has tried on her own without thinking about it. She will be standing, and decide she wants to be somewhere else, so she will start to walk, but then usually falls down.

Riley's First Birthday!
