DC Tourists

Now that Riley is getting older and interacting more with the world around her, it has motivated us to take her out more often. This past weekend, we decided on a whim to take her to the zoo. It was a hot day, and the zoo was a little more crowded than I had hoped, but we enjoyed our time nonetheless, and Riley was very much engaged with the animals.

The following day was day one of the annual Dragon Boat races in DC. Eric had always wanted to check it out, so we all got up early (with Riley being our alarm clock of course) and headed to Georgetown. I'm so glad we did it! I don't know how much Riley enjoyed it, but I found it so fascinating!

Best seat in the house!

It has been so fun taking Riley out to explore DC. Eric and I became very close friends while seeing what DC had to offer when we both first moved out here and met. Its a totally different but equally wonderful experience taking our baby to do these things all over again.
