Dylan is growing so fast and learning a lot! It's truly amazing what he has learned to do, just in the past few weeks. I want him to slow down...but at the same time I'm excited about what he will do next! Tonight I took some time to go back and watch videos of Dylan through the past year. I saw his first cry at the hospital along with his first poop. I saw his first bath. I saw the first time he smiled. I watched him try to lift his head and roll over several times. I even saw the first time he tried solid foods (rice cereal). Here is a video of him doing a raspberry sound with his daddy at just 4 months old...
I watched him explore his voice and jump like a jumping bean in his bouncer! I don't want to forget anything so I am happy I have these videos to remind me! I just hope nothing happens to this computer!
Fast forward to 14 months old...
Today Dylan and I had fun playing with his cars and trucks! Here's a quick video of us playing "fetch"!

He is such a BOY! He loves to climb, loves anything that has a button to push, loves to go fast and loves to be outside! If he's fussy or cranky, all I have to do is take him for a walk down the street and he's as happy as can be! He is very interested when the dogs bark in our neighborhood. He will often mimic them and say woof, woof back! He's becoming more independent. When we are outside he will let go of my hand and walk off by himself exploring the flowers, grass, and pinecones. But, he always cuts his eyes back my way just to make sure I'm still there! When it's dinnertime, he wants to feed himself...which causes a horrible mess but that's okay! He getting the spoon down pretty good and can feed himself his yogurt (although half of it goes into his mouth, the other half is on his shirt, hands, hair, etc!) Here is a video of Dylan's mess at dinnertime and he's blaming Brinkley, the dog!
After dinner Dylan goes straight into the bath! Bedtime is always around 7:00pm and he usually wakes up around 7:00am or later! He's an awesome sleeper! We are down to one nap a day about 2-3 hours and play time is anytime he's not eating or sleeping! Because Dylan had so many ear infections, tubes are inevitable...so think about us next week when we go to our first ENT visit!
Here are a few pictures of Ryan's 2nd Birthday Party! We went today and Dylan had the best time playing with the trucks and eating the CAKE!

I'm guessing a Little Tikes Truck is the next big purchase for Dyl :) He LOVED that thing!
Dylan eating some cake and ice cream with a spoon! He actually gave me some with his spoon, too! Already learning how to share ;)
Dylan was the last kid at the table. He wanted to finish it all! TOO FUNNY!
I love, love, love this little guy!
