We ArE nOw CrAwLiNg!!!!

Darren and I made it back Safely from our trip. We had a blast and definitely enjoyed being away for the weekend in the warm sun! :) It was a huge shock to come back to 50 degree weather and we are stocking up on the vitamin C in order to keep from getting sick!
We came back to a baby that I feel like has grown 6 inches and is a totally different baby. And we were only gone for 4 days!! Most importantly he learned how to crawl while we were gone. He finally put two and two (or four and four) together and figured out how to move his hands and knees together in order to get somewhere. Last night he was still a little slower at moving when we picked him up at my mom and dads, but when we got home, he was all over the place!! Last night he had already been into the fall decorations, the play station cable on the tv, and a basket under the table with Darren's remote controls in. (all of which have since been moved) Tonight our night will consist of baby proofing the house and cleaning the carpets. Every little tiny piece of anything ends up in his hands and his mouth so we will now be vacuming every night before he gets let loose on the floor! Bella was not sure at all what to do with him crawling now. It was quite funny to watch. She was just trying to lay on the floor with her bone (which happens to be Dillons favorite thing in the world) and he keep trying to chase her and grab the bone from her. She was pretty confused!
Not much else is new, just had to update that my little baby boy is growing up sooo fast! We are looking forward to seeing what the next couple months brings us with the holidays coming up. We are getting really excited about fall and Halloween and trick or treating coming up soon. I can't wait for all of the "first" holidays for Dillon. (I mean I can't wait for the fun, but I can definitely wait for him to be that big!!) Hoping to get more Fall pictures SOON. We will update when we get those!
Happy Fall Everyone!!

Family / Dillon Pictures


















Our schedules finally slowed down for a second one Sunday afternoon for us and Dad to get together to take a couple pictures of our family and some of little mister. We were SO pleased with them, and Dillon was quite a trooper! With no nap and all, he was all smiles. (he learned to stick his tongue out that day as well, hence the picture with his tongue out! :) Dad is very talented (as you can see) and we are soo blessed to have him and his hobby!
We have been definitley keeping busy this last month. Not to many exciting things just everyday things that keep us away from doing other things, like updating the blog! (sorry) I have more pictures on our camera that we need to put on here as well as some videos to show too. Just cute little ones of Dillon being himself! :) We can't believe how big he is getting, and did I mention he is 7 MONTHS OLD now!! He is trying SO hard to crawl, hes almost there. He will get on his hands and knees and rock and rock and then gives up. Occasionally he will move his knee and arm forward but doesn't get far, and occasionally he will kind of army crawl to get to something he really wants. (which is usually Bella's dog bone) He is now saying "dada" quite a bit, and an occasional "mama" when he is tired and cranky! haha But its the cutest thing ever when he says it. Darren and I can both tell you the highlight of our day now has changed from seeing each other after a long day to seeing that precious little face light up when you walk in the room. Its the most heart warming thing that you could ever experience!
Besides Dillons new achievments nothing is too new with us. Darren and I are getting ready to go on a little weekend get-a-way in a week and we are excited about that. We are all excited about the fall coming soon and can't wait for all of the cookouts, pumpkins, and cooler weather. (and did i mention new wardrobes) :) We promise to get on more often to update sooner. More pictures and videos to come soon!
