Little Man

I had so much fun spending all my time with my Dill but now, it's back to normal. Lita came home yesterday and just in time because I am now sick...again!

Last week, we got to spend some time with friends Jenn and Rudy and their gal, Pilar. She is a few weeks older than Dill. She probably weighs 15 pounds (compare to Dill at 23!) but it was obvious who the boss was. She wanted to use Dillon as a stepstool but he did what he does best-he just sat there.

They played nice and exchanged toys.

But I think Dillon wanted her hat more than her toys.

Pilar is already able to crawl everywhere, stand and walk with some assistance and boy can she get into trouble! I had the brake on the Bagaboo and she was able to use her brute strength and push it.

Dill still has some trouble sleeping. He tosses and turns (just like Dad) and hates blankets, no matter how cold it is. And we always have a pacifyer or two nearby. When he moves around, his arm searches for the pacifyer so sometimes he is able to put himself back to sleep.

Dillon likes to roll around like a ball until he hits...the couch.

And now he sits up and crosses his legs. He's my little man!

On Saturday, we went to friends Alyssa and Emalee's sports themed birthday party. Dad took Dillon on the jumper...well, at the entrance of the jumper, but Dill didn't know the difference.


Just thought I'd share some cute morning bedhead pics.

Catching Up

Wow! It's been a long two weeks since my last update--it's been quite hectic here lately. I've been busy with planning Dillon's 1st Birthday, while creating and making invitations for another birthday and not to mention Dillon's grandma took a trip to El Salvador. It's been surprisingly wonderful being a 24hour mom. I absolutely love spending every waking (and sleeping) moment with the little man.

It's been a real rollercoaster ride with Dillon. He now flips over and over until he hits an obstacle. He says Mama, Papa and Nana and often screams like a parakeet. He still naps randomly, wakes up a few times in the middle of the night and needs a bottle in the wee morning hours. And eating has been a bit messy lately--he likes to spit while he has a full mouth of food.

Who ate my french fries??

Here is a new toy. Now Dillon gets to spend time with me in the kitchen.

Hungry?

Dill, the Inspector, fliping through his keys...

This one's my new favorite.

A-hum...what are you doing on the couch??

Busted!

Excuse me! I just folded those towels Mr. Dillon!

Play time with Dad. Love that smile!

A new toy inherited from Cousin Allie.

Dillon is my alarm clock. I can't think of a better sight to see first thing in the morning.

Bath time hair-do.

Dillon loves Dad

Dilly and Daddy love to horse around.

Practice, practice, practice.

Look at those thighs!!

Look out mama! I'm coming to get you!!!
I've got Daddy's smile.

Dilly jus being silly!

Have a safe and happy Easter!

Happy Birthday Hector!

Hector turned 32 this past Sunday. It sure was a busy day.

During the day, we made a quick visit to the Estrada home to visit their new baby girl. Sammy is 3 and Dill loved playing with his toys.

Dill's legs are a little too short.

Isn't he so cute??? Sammy is holding the umbrella for Dillon so he can be more comfortable in the shade.

Then it was off to Tia Chelo's house for Hector's birthday dinner.

This is the cake I made. Hector LOVES cheeseburgers so I thought it would be fun to bake a cake in shape of one. Getting a kiss from Papa.

Dillon and Tia Chelo. Look what's cooking in the background....

Tia Teresa surprised Hector with fresh made pupusas!! They were so delicious!!!

Playing with Cousin Allie in the playpen.

And where was Dillon amidst all the excitement???

On Sunday morning, we took a stroll through Irvine Park.

Hope you had a wonderful birthday Dad!!
