Sooo Big!

This past weekend my parents (Nani & Pops to Dylan) came to visit for a long weekend. We had a great time. On Thursday my Dad and I went skiing in Santa Fe while my Mom watched Dylan. When we came back that night Dylan proudly showed off the new game Nani taught him. How the Sooo Big game works: We Say, "How big is Dylan?" Then Dylan raises his hands in the air and we say Sooo Big. Next Dylan gets a huge smile and claps for himself. It is super cute. Here he is in action...
The excitment continued throughout the weekend: my Mom & I got manicures and pedicures on Friday, and Saturday Scott and my Dad played in a golf tournament. Sunday we went on a hike in the Foothills and then took Dylan to the park.
Here are some pictures of Dylan with Nani and Pops on our hike...


Thanks for the fun weekend Nani & Pops. We love you!!!

10 Month Update

Here is Dylan after a bath. Can you tell by his expression that he is ready to play and explore. He is always ready to go. Our days are busy, busy, busy. I try to keep up as he crawls and walks pushing things around the house. His favorite thing to push down the hall is his toy train, which he uses as a walker. Coming in a close second are the kitchen chairs. Don't be fooled by his size. He is very strong.


Another one of Dylan's favorite things to do is to play the piano. He figured out that he could reach the keys and that it makes noise and then there was no turning back. Dylan loves anything that lets him make noise. We may have a future musician on our hands.



Meal times have been more fun lately now that Dylan is eating more and more table foods. So far we know that he loves bananas, pears, peas, ground beef, chicken, cheese, and tortillas. As for baby foods... we still try but unless his hands are full, Dylan figures out a way to grab the spoon when Scott or I look away for a second and the meal ends up looking something like this...
