Update

































Well, let's see what is new with us. Things are good here. Dylan is just as adorable as ever. We have a video of him standing on his own without holding on to anything. I really think he will be walking in no time. We just started feeding him brown rice. I pureed it and mixed it with veggies. :) I love trying new things with him. He has 2 teeth now. He's my white trash baby. haha. I am all nervous. I felt this really hard spot on one of his legs. He has gotten shots in both legs in that area, but it's only in one leg. I don't know why. He should have another dr apt coming up, so I'll see what it is. Mike isn't worried but I"m a worry wart so I'm all scared. I'm sure it's nothing but I still want to get it checked out.


We had a real estate agent come and look at the house and tell us what we could get for it and what things we need to fix before we take pics to sell it. Our plans are to sell the house and move to an apartment up north by work and have a daycare near there as well and get to spend another 3 hours with Dylan that we used to spend in traffic, with him!! Plus, living in an apartment will hopefully allow us to save for a new house in austin. Maybe we can save for the next year to build one in Austin. We can't wait to get back!!!

Things are good with Mike and I. He's having a hard time with one of his classes. He is thinkng about dropping but I'm pushing him as hard as I can to not and pass this class. I know he has it in him but he's letting this teacher get the best of him. I told him, if he fails him, I'M going to his office and give him a piece of my mind!! hehe. He's giving it his all though and that's all I can ask.

We have to buy a new a/c unit, that's very expensive!!! Plus our eletric bill was $430!!! because our heater has been messed up, then we have Dylan's surgery we have to pay for next week. It just seems like one thing after another. We will be ok, we have our health and each other, that's all I pray for every night. But, it would be nice not to have to worry about all of this financial stuff for once! :) Oh well though, we are used to money issue, it's all we know.

We are getting excited about Key west. We are in need of a vacation, bad!!! I just can't wait for Dylan to get his feet in the sand. I'm so excited for some r&r.
Well, I think that's it for now. :)

Gotta make mama happy


His first art work for our fridge that he did at daycare. :)

Sleepy after hanging out with mommy all day. Shopping and lunch and running errands.






So mom wants me to keep up with my blog better so I guess I better listen!! :)

let's see what is going on with us. I'll start with baby D. He is fabulous!! He is more fun every day. We can't get enough of him right now, especially since we only see him for such a short time during the week. We take it all in on the weekends. He has mastered crawling and pulling himself up. He isn't afraid of anything right now either, I guess he knows mommy will be there to catch him. Hopefully!! hehe. I think he is slowly starting to know who mommy and daddy are too. He still says da da da da a lot but now if I am walking away from him or something and he wants to be picked up, he will start fussing and say mama. So, it's pretty neat. He has been sick FOR FOREVER!!! Ear infection, sinus infection, you name it. We have tried antibiotic after antibiotic, his poor stomach. So now we have to result to tubes in his ears. It scares me knowing he will have to go under ,but I hear it's only for a short time and that it's totaly worth it because he will e much better. I sure hope so after what we are paying out of pocket!! and becuase he has been sick for so long. Funny story, last night because of all of the antibiotics, he pooped and it went up hs back, out of every place it could. It was horrible!! So i had him standing up on the bathroom counter while I undressed him. So i finally got him naked and then he peed all over me!!! I was like Dylan!! He just started cracking up. I couldn't help but laugh too, but I was like man, what a mess. So we got bathed and in our pj's alittle early. He's funny. ummm we are still making his baby food. It's really not that bad. Sundays are the only time it is very time consuming, that's when make it all. steam it, mash it, blend it, freeze it, etc. But it's worth it. I'm not sure how we will swing it in key west. We will more than likely take some baby food that one time. If there is a blender at the house, we can make most of it, but it's just too much and I don't think one week of baby food in a jar is going to hurt him. We will just see though. I'm sure Mike will go, no way, we are making it, so I'll just have him make it if he's that passionate about it. hehe.

I am doing great. Work is going great!! I love it except it's getting so busy. I don't have any time for personal stuff like I used to at my last job! hehe. it's ok though. I'm learning a lot and asking lots of questions. We have 2 months until key West, so I have been trying to work out more and get ready for a bathingsuit. I haven't worn a bathingsuit in 2 years I think. oh wait, I guess I wore one after D was born but it was not pretty. I'm really excited about the trip though. mike and I haven't had a vacation since our honeymoon 7 years ago! So we are going to try and have a blast on this one. After the plane ride, I'll be grrreat. I can't wait to get D's feet in the sand. I hope he's walking by then. :) If not, then i can't wait to get his knees in the sand. I wish parker was going, they would have sooo much fun together. Hopefully next trip.

Mike is great except he has been traveling like crazy!!! He is so tired of traveling so much. He is so close to finishing school and hopefully won't have to after that. We will see though. he keeps getting sick as well, i guess from Dylan and then from all of the traveling. I'm sure he misses D like crazy. I feel so bad for him.
This weekend we have a lot of stuff to do. We were supposed to go to drop Dylan off in Austin tomorrow and then head to either San Antonio or something but then we found out how much his surgery would be and decided we should be smart about it and not go. It was pretty disappointing but as long as he can get better, that's all that matters to us. Plus, we will be back in Austin on the 9th for the Austin 10K, we finally get to do it this year with everyone. Then we also have key West, so we will have plenty of babysitters there. hehe. We are planning one day/night just us, since this will be our last vacation until mike graduates that's for sure. It will e fun though.

Umm i think that's all going on with us. not a whole lot but seems like it to us!
