Neil Diamond Day in Utah

What an awesome concert! Neil Diamond is still rockin' it at 71-years-old. He did a lot of hits (which also sound great on his 2-disc "The Essential Neil Diamond" album). There were young & old alike rocking out to "I'm a Believer," "Sweet Caroline," & "Coming to America." In fact, he did 4 choruses of "Sweet Caroline." So...if you get a chance to see Neil someday, do it! The great-grandpa in front of us will attest to the pure joy of this classic music. He had a smile on his face all night. Amazing show!

We're Back! (Dillon's post)

Hello, blog friends! We've been on a little hiatus from the blog world due to crazy schedules & enjoying our little guy.

Hangin' in my robe

Dillon eats like a champ. The sweet potatoes weren't the fave, but he has adapted. I never got my camera fast enough for the disgusted faces he gives. Cracks me up!

Ready to eat, Mom!

Happy Mother's Day!

I recently discovered that Dillon's legs are touching the seat already. I read the sizes on our car seat. It holds up to 30 pounds & 30 inches. I think he's almost there for height. We might be going car seat shopping...dang!

Growing Boy

I'm Rolling Now!

Nap time is now a circus...literally! This baby rolls & wiggles like nobody's business! He starts at one end & ends up at the other in quick succession. I've since had to take down the bumper cover. I often find his head hitting the bars or a little arm poking out. And he does this all while sleeping...sort of.

Hi, Mom!

I'm So Happy To See You!

 The kids and I also take our daily walk at the park. Dillon is happy just taking in all the sights. Trees are his favorite! And Lily is just glad to be outside in the breeze.

These last two photos are the most recent. Dillon is a good sport when I pull out the camera. We have so much fun with him! He's a great baby!

Sweet Boy

I Love Mickey Mouse!

Best Friends Already...

Funny little story:
As I was feeding Dillon his bottle, Lily came up to me with her sock in her mouth & nudged my free hand. Obviously, I couldn't play with her at that moment. When Dillon finished, I put him in his little seat on the floor so he could look around. A determined Lily got her sock again & stood by Dillon's hand, waiting for him to grab the sock. So precious! These two already love each other.

The Parent Timeclock

I know I'm new to this mommy thing, but I'm noticing that my daily life feels like a giant shot-clock. Our errands & activities pretty much revolve around Dillon's eating schedule & nap times. I always have a constant list of to-dos during the day, and if I get sidetracked by something else (blog, internet, tv, reading), Dillon is up & ready to go. 3...2...1...and now he's up again. But with a face like that, it's all worth it!
