Pictures for the Touring Daddy

My friend Emily came over on Saturday with her 21 month old daughter Mather. It was so sweet to see Dorian finally showing some interest in other kids. Mather kept saying "Baby, baby." Dorian walked around the coffee table at one point to get to where she was standing. He started touching her face and hair, ultimately grabbing at her, ending up losing his balance and falling on to her. She fell over too of course and they both started crying. When they realized the other one was crying, they cried louder. It was like they were trying to outcry each other. It was soooo funny. I couldn't stop laughing and must have looked like the worst mother in the world. Whenever they would stop crying for a second and one of them started up again, the other would follow. It was hilarious. For the rest of the day, Mather looked warily at him whenever he got close and said "No baby."

Mather and Dori checking each other out at the park:

Look how blonde Dorian is getting!!! Crazy. From black hair to blonde???
Silly boy.
Happy boy.
Brown-eyed boy.
A photo of Dorian and my high school best friend Anjali. We lost touch for several years and just recently rekindled our friendship. She loves Dorian (but who doesn't, right?) Doesn't Dori look like a proper little monkey here? His face, his pose...reminds me of all the little guys I saw at the zoo last week.*
Come on, Mom, not another cheesy, posed shot - let me up!!!
How many freakin' photos do we have to take today, Mom?*Sorry for the weird crop jobs and white background of these photos; they were taken on Anj's iPhone and I don't know how to make them look "normal." Where's James when you need him? 22 days and counting!
