New Adventures

This was yet another week of FUN FUN FUN! Dillon is beginning to master the art of snacking. I guess that's no shocker--the boy loves to eat.

He recently began eating meats and loves it! Here he is eating chicken and sweet potatoes.

We've begun training Dillon for gymnastics. I think he's a natural...

Just kidding!! He actually loves to bang on his drums with his feet.

His legs are quite strong. He is already able to stand (with some assistance).

Check out that badonk!

He sure loves playing with Dad. Check out how much air he got!

This weekend we took a trip to LA to our favorite place...LA Farmers Market.

We also had time to swing by a restaurant that Hector and Lita used to visit a long, long time ago...El Salvadore Cafe.

Chillaxing Week?

With Lita (gramma) gone for most of the week, Dill tagged along with me to all my chiro appointments, mall trips and lunch dates. It turned out to be a busy and tired week. After all, it's not easy getting a 22 lb baby in and out of a carseat.

Chillaxing on the couch with friends. Check out the bed head!

Waiting for lunch. Peach, banana and raspberries, oh my!!!

Dilly's neck is getting bigger and it is not easy finding bibs that fit that neck of his!

I give up! The bib just does not want to stay on that neck! By the look of his flared nostrils, it looks like I'm not the only one who's frustrated.

Still trying to get the hang of the sippy cup...
Where does the water come out from?? Nothing here...
Maybe here??
Or how about here??

Getting closer...

Look Mama! No hands!!!
And again...waiting for food. When is Dilly not eating?

Mama, I think I need to change my clothes. I'm soaked!

Snack time - cheese course.

Look how tall I am (censored)!!


Dilly and Daddy having a laugh over blueberries.


Here are the loves of my life...my two monsters!!

March Milestones

Sorry for the late post. I have been sick for the past two

weeks and I finally have a moment to catch up.

Since our last blog, little Dill has recently learned to sit up on his own so now he is able to keep himself company for a few minutes. That gives us enough time to sneak a meal or put a load in the laundry machine.

He also recently had his first bath while sitting up. It took him a few mintues to get used to the water but he sure loves splishing and splashing.

He uses a shower hat which makes it much easier for Dad to wash his hair. Can you say "Michelin Man"? How can you not love those rolls!!!

This was a random picture taken on his changing table. Can you see his two front teeth?

Also this month, Dillon uttered his first word...can you guess? Why, "MAMA", of course!! And, when you put your arms out to carry him, he recognizes this and smiles in excitement.

Dilly's mid-day snack consists of apple juice and banana puffs. He is still learning to pick up the sippy cup on his own...it's quite heavy but I don't know why he insists on using one hand and not both...See, left...

And right...He's our crazy little guy!!!

Happy Half Birthday!

Dillon Raiden Escobar turned 6 months last Tuesday. We went to visit Dad at his office and had lunch. It was fun sitting and watching the water fountain. He got another round of shots at the doctor's office and the way we see it, he got top scores in weight at 20.4lbs(89%), height at 27in (71%) and head size at 17-3/4in (84%).

So how much does Dilly despise peas?...He is so dramatic. By the way, he still hates peaches too.

We took a stroll on Sunday and boy was it hot.

Dillon was sporting his Dodger tank to show off the guns.
