Dylan's first home visit

Dylan went on her first home visit yesterday and she did amazingly well. She pretty much just sat there while dad tried to deflect toddler poking fingers from her head. While on the visit and on the drive home afterwards I realized what a valuable asset Dylan is when it comes to home visiting. I was thinking about the years laid out before us and how great it will be to have Dylan to share with my families. Oh and Dylan now weighs in at 12+ pounds.

Uncle Patrick's Graduation

An extra note on last weekend....Dylan ripped some awesome farts during her Uncle's graduation including one during the speakers long winded oration. Also, it is very hard to pee holding a baby and even harder to zip up after. I would also like to note that green day's time of your life has played at every graduation since 1997. I would like to challenge the youth out there to come up with a new song to play during your graduation as it is getting old. Congrats though uncle Patrick on your graduation and more importantly being voted best dancer!

7 Weeks old

Hi everyone! As of last tuesday Dylan now weighs 10lbs 10 oz. She has been gaining about 1/2 lb per week. Dylan is now smiling and cooing all the time. She also is now a fan of her sling- now we just need to work on the Baby Biorn. We have been staying busy, with recent visits to Hood River and Glide. Dylan got to meet her great-grandparents and great-aunts and uncles in Hood River and watched Uncle Patrick's high school graduation in Glide. I have to return to work next week for 30 hours a week and I am not ready to leave my little girl. We feel very lucky to have my mom come and stay with us for the summer so that we have someone we trust watching and caring for Dylan.
