Nana's visit

It's been awhile since the last update, and Riley has been busy as usual! She had a little bit of a rough week after getting a viral infection on top of the thrush she already had. She did get to spend a whole day with Nene when she couldn't go to daycare because of her fever. But she was a trooper and recovered very quickly, becoming her normal smiling self again. And it's a good thing she did, because she had some fun visitors last weekend! Her Nana, and Nana's BFF Brenda both came into town for a weekend visit. She enjoyed having them here very much, and even got to stay with them in their hotel for a few hours while Mom and Dad went to a Kentucky Derby party. We couldn't leave them with her for too long, though, because they can be very bad influences! ;-) The next day she joined them for a walk on the boardwalk and lunch with Nene and Papa. Sunday night she got to stay with Dad while Mom and Nana went to the Rush concert. And before Nana left, she was sure to get Riles a toy - one with four piano keys that lights up and talks/plays music. Her Nana taught her to press the keys with her feet!

Then it was back to daycare for the week, where her teachers talked all about how she is no longer content to lay back. She just wants to sit up and watch all the other babies. It was also teacher appreciation week, so Riley brought in some peanut butter chocolate chip cookies for them to enjoy. Her "school" pictures finally came in, and she also got to make a Mother's Day gift using her hand- and foot-prints! Speaking of Mother's Day, Mom was treated very well by Riles, Ski and Dad - she enjoyed an awesome breakfast and some shopping at the outlet mall, before later joining the rest of the Kletz family for dinner out.
