Best Big Brother EVER

Sometimes being a brother is even better than being a superhero.
Dylan loves his baby brother so much. He is constantly kissing and hugging him. He is such a good helper as well. When Keenan is crying, usually due to wanting to eat and wanting it NOW; Dylan will run to him and start talking to him & Keenan will stop crying & stare at his big brother. It is adorable to watch as this special bond grows.

First Art Project

Dylan loved his first day of preschool.  Very excited to go back. 

First Day of Preschool

Dylan told his teacher "I really don't have to be here because I already know everything. "

Proud Big Brother

Right when Dylan laid eyes on his brother he looked so happy.  Wanted to hold him right away and this is the exact moment capture.  He is loving every moment, and being a wonderful big brother, just like I thought he would be.

What Time Do You Get Done With Work?

Monday evening around 6:30 Dylan and I were driving home from Grandma Jean's and Grandpa David's.  Dylan asked me what time I get done with work.  I told him 4 o'clock.  He than asked what time does Grandma get home.  I said 3 o'clock.  Finally he asked and what time does Daddy get home.  I said well Daddy isn't home yet but he should be home shortly.  I didn't think much about our conversation until the next morning on my way to drop Dylan off.  "I want Daddy to pick me up today." Dylan says.  "You do?" I replied.  "Yes call Daddy and tell him to pick me up when he gets done."  After I thought about it for awhile I had to laugh.  He had this all figured out from yesterdays conversation.  He wants more time with Grandma and now he knows a way to get it.  What a smart little turkey. 

 

 

He Did His First Somer Sault

Boy did he think he was special when he finally accomplished the roll over without assistance. Watching Dylan accomplish something and seeing that look on his face is one of the best gifts ever!

It's In His Blood

Dylan loved racing with other kids and he knew what he was doing :)

Mommy Take A Deep Breath

I was just scolding Dylan & he says "Mommy,  Mommy.  Just calm down.  Take a deep breath & let it out.  Will you do that for me.  It will make you feel better."

It's My Brains Fault

I was trying to tell Dylan to stop doing something.  He said "Sorry, my brain won't let me."  I replied "Sorry my hand is going to spank you."  He said "Spank my brain?"  I said "No spank your butt."  He replied back "You should really spank my brain. Its my brains fault."

 

 

 

First Why Did The Chicken Joke

Dylan: Why did the chicken cross the park?

Me:     Why

Dylan: To get to the other SLIDE!

 

  I had never heard this chicken joke and listening to Dylan tell it was hilarious! He really surprised with the punch. =)

 

Yellow Birdie

This bird made friends with us when we pulled up at Grandma Jean & Grandpa David's. 

Nocturnal

Dylan:  Are bears nocturnal like bats?

Me:      Nocturnal. What is nocturnal?

Dylan:  Well, it is when they sleep during the day & are active at night.

My little smarty pants is all I have to say =)

 

He also informed me today that squid are part of the octopus family. 

 

1st & 2nd Swimming Lesson

Dylan had his first swimming lesson on Tuesday June 8th.  Grandma Jean and I took him to his first lesson.  We could tell he was a little scared.  He grabbed my hand and he looked at me with the biggest puppy dog eyes I have ever seen him make and said you hold my hand & please come in the water with me, please.  I preceded to tell him that I couldn't go in with him and he seemed a little leery.  It was so hard to look at him and feel like I wasn't going to be there for him when he was begging me to be.  But when it came time to enter the pool I did walk him over to the rest of the kids and told him Mommy was going to go back over there and he seemed fine with it.  When I walked away Dylan latched on to one of the little girls hands that he was standing next to.  It was so funny watching him and we could tell that the instructor and the little girls were getting an ear full.  I just wish we knew what he was saying.  We asked him and he said that he told the instructor that he was afraid that he was going to sink and she said that's okay. They actually have the little ones doing a lot more the first lesson than I thought they would.  He had to swim the whole length of the pool, of course with his floaters, but still I was pretty impressed.  Every chance that Dylan got he climbed right out the pool.  He wasn't quiet sure about just bobbing in the water by himself. He did stay in a little longer each time though.

Dylan's second lesson Grandma Jean took him because I had to work.  Heath met them down there.  Dylan could see Grandma and Heath through the windows and he started to walk over to them. Heath and Grandma were both motioning for him to go back, but he kept coming.  He came up to the window and said, I have to poop.  They both just started to laugh. Grandma went in and got him and he wasn't kidding.  Dylan will have about 8 more lessons, so I am sure I will have more stories to tell.
