Back to normal...

He was outside for all of 15 minutes before he looked like he'd just crawled out of a coal mine.

Helping Grandma plants flowers. He's really loving this sunny warm weather (although we could all do without the blasted wind). 

Vin brought this from Taiwan for Atticus' birthday, but he's really too big for it so Dillon has taken it over. 

And Atticus is happy to push him around on it (most times...).

Dillon had his first ice cream cone the other day ('moon mist'). I was surprised at how well he ate it and how relatively neat he was about it.


Showing Great-Grandma how many carrots he can stuff in his mouth.

Dillon was 5 1/2 months old here. 

I can't believe what a big boy he is at 10 1/2 months now.

Vin told me we now have 2 different realtors listing our house. A young family came over last week to see it and were surprised we were selling it, but so far no offers. Hopefully we'll see some more interest in it in the coming weeks. 

And, Vin will be here July 6th for a couple weeks. We're excited to see him and Dillon is trying really hard (or maybe it's just me trying really hard) to walk. I'm also beginning the weaning off process. I'll give all my kids until their first birthday, but then the dairy is closed. I have a strong feeling that Dillon is going to fight this new program, but one way or another I will not be nursing a toddler.

Good luck to us all!

Your boys are so cute! I love reading about your adventures in mommyhood...maybe because I can so relate. The best is the talking about all the things that polite society doesn't talk about..but that mommies are obsessed with everyday. Having kids changes the way to interact with poop forever! :)
