What's New?

Ryan had a big weekend. He got a new high chair and cot. But the biggest news is on Saturday I discovered his first tooth has broken through. It's his bottom right incisor. This surprised me not because I wasn't expecting it but because he didn't cry or seem uncomfortable at all. I never had to use the Orajel his Aunt Kelly sent us. Of course, we have many more teeth to go!

UPDATE: Wednesday, April 30, 2008 a second tooth made its appearance. He's growing so fast!

London

The museums in London are fantastic. Here are a couple photos from the Science Museum. I think Riko is standing in front of a high voltage rectifier stack. The sign near the exhibit says something about splitting the atom.

Riko captured this in the hotel in London on Thursday night. (It was 10:30pm and he was wide awake from all the stimulation of being in a new city. Mike was at a work dinner so it was just the two of us. -Riko)

Ryan, by the way, was an excellent flyer. He didn't make any sort of fuss at all despite waiting on the tarmac 40 minutes for a 50 minute flight back to Dublin.

Look what I can do!

How could we resist?

The first time he rolled over and I caught it on camera!
