Dylan is ONE!

12 Month picture coming soon.... I know, I'm SO late!

Sleep: Dylan is sleeping 12 hours a night - nothing new there.  He sometimes takes a small cat nap in the mornings if he needs it.  He usually goes down for a nap around 12:30 and will sleep 2-3 hours.  He does not need as much sleep during the day as Owen did.  

Size:  Little man is 23 pounds and 30.5 inches long.  He is 66% for weight and 88% for height!  He is almost as big as Owen!  If people didn't already ask me if they are twins, they will surely start this coming year.  He is wearing size 4 diapers, but I will probably put him in 5's here pretty soon.  He is wearing 12 month clothes.

Firsts:  Dylan is starting to say a lot more words.  He is now saying Mama, Dada, Uh-oh, doggie, and hi.  He is a little shy about talking right now, so he won't say it when you ask him to.  The only word he will say if you ask, is "Hi" and he will wave and smile!  

We had our first apple picking trip.  We went last year and Owen absolutely loved it.  This year we were really looking forward to taking them both.  They can run around and just be free!  Here are a few pictures from our adventure...

We went early enough in the season that we could still pick some peaches too!

Reason #5634 why I love Virginia...

Mama and son moment.

I love Jimmy's face in this picture!
Dylan bit right into the apple and ate an entire one while we were picking.  He LOVED it!

This is Owen when we wen last year.  I thought it was so funny that he did the same exact thing.
I swear it must be instinct to just bite into an apple like this.  We've never given them an apple, and I don't even eat mine like that - always cut them up.  So I have no idea where they learned this!

Likes:  Dylan likes hugging, cuddling, kissing, and being close.  He is going to make some girl very happy one day - as he is such a cuddler!

He really wants to be with the big kids.  Whenever I'm with my friends with other kids, or even just a play date with Owen's friends, Dylan is following them around and wants to play with them!

Just a swinging!

Fun Moments:  

The ice cream man just happened to be driving through the neighborhood when Mimi and Pops were coming over!  The boys got lucky and got some ice cream.

He loves sticking out his tongue, haha!

Soaking up the last few moments my baby is still a baby...

Ooo, ee, ooo, I look just like Buddy Holly.
(Oh, oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moore)

I just couldn't resist including this picture!

Owen found some big rocks while we were apple picking and had fun playing on them.

Nakey boys chasing each other!

I hope everyone has had a great start to their fall - I know we have!

Love,
