Palm Sunday Picnic

at church, all the kids got to have a parade with palm branches, so Mommy and I got to have fun waving palm branches.


After church, we all went to the park for a picnic. It was a little cold, and Daddy was silly and forgot his jacket.

There were lots of new things and lots of people to look at. I even got to sit with the Easter Bunny.



Later, we had an egg hunt.



I showed Mommy what a big boy I am and picked up two eggs and put them in the basket with the ones Mommy picked up!

First Snow!

Mommy had to go to work early, and Daddy had to go to school, so we didn't have time to play in the snow, but we did have time for a quick picture.

A Few Pictures

Grandpa Drilling decided I was in a good mood Thursday night and took some pictures of me. I think I was in a good mood, too! What do you think??

Six Month Check-up Numbers

Height: 28 inches
Weight: 18 pounds
Shots: 4-including an oral med (but the next round of shots isn't until he's a year old, and then they're only 3!)

Dillon didn't have any fever this time, although his childcare teacher reported he was Mr. Fussy Pants on Tuesday afterwards. :)

The little scooter!

Dillon has begun to scoot himself around on the carpets at the childcare center. Put a toy in front of him, and he'll do everything in his power to get to it! It's exciting to watch! :)

We are also dealing with our second ear infection. However, everything seems to be going okay. We have meds and he's still eating and drinking okay.

By the way, Dillon turned 6 months old January 6. Can you believe it???

Christmas!

I was a little fussy, because i had an ear infection, a cold, and was starting to cut a tooth...

I did let Grandpa get a pretty good picture of the three of us.

I still wanna be the center of attention, though.

I got great-grandma a picture of me.

I even helped Grandma open one of her gifts.

I got a nice new toy from Uncle Ben...

I had fun playing with Aunt Ellen, too.


Overall, it was a good Christmas. Daddy got some video of it, and he'll post what he can when he can.

silly doctors, pinkeye, and cold weather.

so, the last time we went to the doctor, he decided that since Dillon didn't hold his head up like he 'should,' we had to have a CT scan done.

we did that last Wednesday, and they didn't find anything wrong, just like we thought.

however, we did find out early this week that he had a mild case of pinkeye, but that's pretty much over.

and, here's Dillon wearing a coat.

my first Thanksgiving

I got to play with Uncle Ben...

wow, the last month has flown by.

Dillon's getting so big! He weighs 16 pounds 8 ounces, and is 26 inches long.

He's been eating cereal for a couple of weeks, and has just started on applesauce.
