Sunday dinner at Nana & Papa's; New Car Seat

Last Sunday we went to Nana & Papa's for dinner to celebrate Uncle Jamie's birthday.
Papa and Uncle Jamie also helped Anson change the brakes on our van. Nana made lasagna, which was delicious!

Lily likes to hold Dillon, though she's not that good at it.

The birthday boy!

We upgraded Dillon to a big boy car seat. He still has to ride backwards until he's 1, but at least we don't have to carry about the heavy infant carrier seat anymore! They can see each other better now too.

Walsh Farms

Today we went to Walsh Farms with Jen & Zack. It was a beautiful fall day. For those of you who watch Little People Big World, this farm was similar to the Roloff Farm. Lots of fun activities for the kids. You can pick your own pumpkin and they sell yummy foods like kettle corn!

Hayride!

Neither one could decide which pumpkin they wanted. So in the end, we had to help them decide.

Eating an apple!

Earlier this morning. Lily was bouncing Dillon and asked me to take a picture.

This was from the other day. Playing house together. We are trying really hard to teach Lily to share her toys with Dillon. Some days she does better than others.

When we got home from Walsh Farms Lily started acting sick. She had a temperature of 103.5 and she's really sick. She's been on the couch all afternoon. Anson is giving her a cool bath right now. We thought it was from her flu shot (mist) yesterday but now we aren't sure. I'm not feeling that great either.

Cute picture of Dillon from today.

Puppy Love

Dillon is 7 months old!

Our cute baby boy turned 7 months old yesterday! He's such a charmer. He's really happy and always smiling. He loves to bounce and jump in his jumper. He's very active and attentive. He grabs at anything in front of him and he's getting very close to crawling. He's eating 2nd foods now and has two bottom front teeth. He's been sleeping really well in his crib.

He's almost sitting up all by himself, but still needs a cushion in case he falls.

Lily loves to make Dillon laugh, and Dillon laughs the hardest at Lily. They are a perfect pair. If only Lily would share her toys with Dillon...we're working on it.

Lily is really talking a lot. We have conversations with her. She'll tell us things about her day. Last night while I was doing dishes she started saying "Vicky Heaton," which is my mom's name. I called Mom to see how she knew her name and she couldn't believe that she did. My mom had made a call earlier in the day and told someone her name, but she only said it once or twice and Lily picked it right up! We really need to watch what we say. Almost every day she says something new.

No, this isn't her "time-out." She loves to crawl in Samba's cage, but we try not to let her because she usually ends up hurt and in tears.

Series of photos from last week. Lily wanted to have her picture taken with Dillon...

Adorable outfit that I put Dillon in to go see Daddy at work last Monday. GOJO was closed for Yom Kippur.
