We have a very confused son!! This was taken early in the tournament when K-State and KU were both in it! I understand that Dylan will more than likely grow up and be a KU fan but that in no way means mommy will cheer for the Jayhawks!! I am working on Go Cats but all he wants to say is Jayhawk!

I know it is late but I tried to post this picture from Easter a few other times and this is the first time it worked?? Isn't he the cutest in his plaid blazer!! He had a great time on Easter and was a hit in Lancaster with Great Grandma Shaver!
The next George Brett!! Dylan got a T-Ball set from Grandma and Grandpa Packard and he loves it! We had it inside for a few days and that is all he played with. He had even more fun outside. Our 80 year old neighbor came over to watch and he wanted her to take a swing too!! He is very good at sharing!!

We love ice cream!! When Grandma Shaver came to visit Saturday the ice cream truck came down the street so they had to go out and buy something! Dylan got a Spongebob Popsicle and we enjoyed it in the porch!

Friday Dylan and I filled Easter Eggs with Jelly Beans then hid them upstairs for Seth to find!! Dylan did good hiding them and only found one for Seth! While we were filling the eggs Dylan would put a few in jelly beans in the eggs and eat a few!! He sure likes jelly beans! Here he is trying to pour them, it didn't work so well!
He did much better this way!
We also painted Easter cards for everyone and decorated them with stickers! He likes painting but doesn't like to get paint on himself, he was very careful!

Dylan got another haircut Tuesday at a place just for kids! They had all kinds of cars to sit in (Dylan chose a Hummer!) and a TV at every station for the kids to watch! He really got a big boys haircut and he doesn't look the same!!

Here he is before the cut, you can see all the other cars! Next time I think we will go for a red convertible!
After!!! Look at his hair! You can't see it very well, but it spikes up!

Spring Break!! Dylan and I have enjoyeed our week together! We have gone to the park (our favorite place to visit) and to the zoo. It has been such a great week and the weather has been wonderful!



Here we are at the zoo with some friends! Two girls I work with have boys as well so we took them to the zoo Wednesday.

Decorating Easter cookies-he went a little overboard with the sprinkles!


Guess Who wrote on the board?? Daddy did one, mommy did one, and Dylan did one-can you guess who did what???

The past couple of nights we went to the park. We have really been enjoying the beautiful weather! Tuesday night Dylan and daddy played outside while I was stuck in the house making dinner. It was fun to look out the kitchen window and watch them play though! After dinner we went to the park. Dylan went down all the slides by himself and then tried to climb back up the slides!

Wednesday night we had our weekly dinner with my sister and her husband. After dinner we all went to another park by their house. It was fun but the slides were a little big for Dylan! This was something that he could sit on and it would spin. It made me sick watching!! He enjoyed it but when he got off he fell down, I guess he was dizzy!
This is a slide Dylan and daddy were going to go down together but once they got up Seth realized he was too tall to go down sitting up. Dylan really wanted to go down so Seth sent him down and I waited on the bottom, I was very nervous! Well Dylan stopped half way down and got scared so Seth had to go down head first to push him down the rest of the way. It was pretty funny, but I was a little scared.

The Past Couple of Weeks!

Our newest adventure...Dylan is driving!! He got a new tricycle over the weekend so we had to try it out Sunday afternoon. He LOVES the horn and it distracts him from paying attention to the road--when he turns 16 and really drives we will make sure he doesn't have a cool Thomas horn to distract him!

We also had to try out all of our modes of transportation! Here he is in his wagon. We had this last year but didn't ride in it too much, hopefully this year he will sit down in it and not try to stand and escape!
And his convertible!! I think we can take the floor out of this one so he can go on his own--kind of like the Flinstones!

And last, but not least, his worm! He does ride this one, but he was pushing it this time. I am not sure why! Our garage looks like a car lot for kids!! We need to get his dump truck out there too--but he likes to play with that one in the house!!

Here he is in the backyard going down his slide. He was posing at the time and saying cheeeeeese! He loves being outside and running around with Toby!

And the last one of Dylan--we went to the zoo last weekend. He loved it--he knows so many of the animals now. When we were looking at the Hippos he was yelling Hippo, it was like he was informing everyone that the big animal they were looking at was a hippo (I guess in case they didn't already know!!). He also told all of the animals bye when we left their exhibits!

I cannot believe my baby boy isn't a baby anymore! He is growing up sooo fast.

He is catching on to so many things. He can say most of his colors, but he doesn't really know what they are. I think he is confused because now his ball is a green ball or his car is a red car?? We are trying. He also said Aunt Ashley and Uncle Brad-hard to understand but we all get it! He can say Wildcat, and I have to admit he knows a bad word...JAYHAWK!!! He points to all Jayhawks and says yahawk!! Not too cute if you ask me!! At the store yesterday a lady was in our way so he told her to "GO" I was a little embarrassed and apologized--she thought it was great!! We need to work on manners I guess!! So much more, but I do need to get back to work (no students today and only 4 days until SPRING BREAK)!

One last one, we went to Dave and Busters with some friends Saturday night, here is Seth playing a hunting game with his manly powder blue gun, I guess it is better than a pink one!! They look so serious!

Wishing for Spring!

So Cute! Dylan brought home a play cash register Friday that has its very own credit card. Man that boy knows how to swipe the credit card--I guess that means he hangs out with mommy and grandma too much!!

We want spring to be here soooo bad! Sunday we decided to go to the park since it was pretty nice out. I didn't think about it too much though--it was muddy and we couldn't go down the slides-they were all too wet :(

We went on the swings instead and played some basketball!
Daddy and Dylan shot some hoops while mommy sat back and watched! Dylan loved being outside with his favorite thing in the world--a ball!! That is all that boy thinks about!
The basket was a little high, so daddy had to help Dylan out-but he tried on his own-he couldn't figure out how to get the ball up there though!

Once we got home we had to get out his own basketball goal that has been in storage. The boys have been playing all night long. I think I am going to have to start the rule, no throwing balls in the house--more so for daddy than Dylan!

SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry it has been almost a month since a blog update!! It has been quite a month!! Hopefully this long update with very cute pictures will make up for it! Enjoy!!

To start--I cannot belive Dylan is getting so big-he is learning new things everyday-it is just amazing!! I am ready for this winter weather to be done with so we can go outside and play.

Today I was lucky enough to have the day off to spend with my little guy. We spent some of our day writing on mommy's notebook--which she was supposed to be writing in for work!

Doesn't he have the best blue eyes!!
Another amazing thing about Dylan...he is so tall that he can reach the kitchen cabinet and eat Cheerios! I just can't believe it!

Ok, Ok, he was standing on something-but he is still pretty tall! We boxed up some of his old toys and we were waiting for daddy to take it down to the basement!
Dylan got a new animal video and was enjoying it today. He was pretty comfy on his chair!
Mom, will you please leave me alone and get that thing out of my face, I am trying to learn about these animals!
Caught Ya!!!

A few just to enjoy!



And one of Dylan helping me dust! Grandma Shaver taught him this-he loves to clean anything! He will dust, sweep, vacuum...He will make some lady very happy someday!
