Moving

Wow. It has been a couple months since our last post. In that time we moved to San Marcos, Dylan learned how to walk, and numerous holidays have occured.

Here are a series of posts to catch up on all the fun!


Before the move there were boxes and bottles



After the move there are gates!

Dylan at Louisa's Party

Dylan's friend Louisa had a birthday down in Chula Vista on Saturday. Dylan had a great time in the pool and the baby enclosure (or "baby jail"). Here is a picture of Dylan in the jail with her Mom.

Boxes

Since Dylan's parents are moving, she got a new toy... a cardboard box. Here is a couple of pictures in the box..

Dylan has a Mini-Birthday Party

It was Dylan's birthday today, but since it was the middle of the week, she only had a mini-birthday party with her Mom, Dad and Abbey. Her big birthday is next weekend.



Here is Dylan opening her new purse.



Dylan and her Mom.. and her birthday balloon.

Here is a picture from one year ago and today.







This is Dylan opening her first present this morning.

New Post

Dylan hasn't had new post on her blog for a long time now... but its not her fault. Her parents have been really busy trying to buy a house and haven't been documenting enough of her.

So, on the eve of her birthday, here is a picture from the lost month of August 2009.

Dylan has a Play Date

Last weekend Dylan had a "play date" with several of her friends... Louisa, Kennedy and Christian


Here is a picture of the D, Kennedy, and Kennedy's mom Courtney.

Dylan's Future Cousin Has a Blog

Dylan's Uncle Kevin and Aunt Kate are having a baby and have a new blog to document all the baby things. It was just one year ago that Dylan's dad went to their wedding while Emily was at home 8 months pregnant. When asked to comment... Dylan contemplated the meaning of another cousin and said "da"... which of course means she's really excited.

Moment of Zen

Dylan Goes to Practice

Dylan went to watch the Chargers practice this weekend at the Fan Fest. Like usual, she was more interested in waiving to everyone sitting around us than in watching the game. Oh well... here is a pic...

Dylan Visits Zoo, Gets Attacked by Animal!!

Dylan got to go to the zoo today.. but unfortunately she got picked up by one of the animals. She's lucky to have made it out alive. Here is a picture of the dangerous encounter..



This is the rare Ursus Gradius (or "Grady Bear") a large hairy bear of slightly Irish persuasion, known to inhabit the South Side of Chicago. According to eyewitness accounts, the Grady Bear swooped in and grabbed little Dylan while she was snacking on a yogurt bite. Luckily Dylan is ok. The status of the bear is unknown.

Uncle Eddie Returns from Deployment

Dylan celebrated the return of her Uncle Eddie from the coasts of Somalia on Monday night. Fun was had by all and Dylan even got the chance to see her cousin Arabella walk around. Dylan was very jealous.

Here are a couple of pictures of Dylan, Eddie, and Arabella, in various stages of excitement.

Dylan Climbs Stairs

Since we don't have any stairs at our place, Dylan had to go over to her aunt Sara's house to try out her latest trick... climbing stairs. Here are the pics:

Dylan Hits the Baby Circuit

Dylan had a wild Saturday, where she hit two baby parties.. first she went to the 1st birthday party of her friend Kennedy. Then she went over to Sherry's house to hang with a couple of twins. Here are the pics...


Dylan's friend Kennedy is 1.


its a table covered with water... its a water table!

Determined to Crawl

In the picture below, Dylan attempts to break through a pillow barrier her Dad made to keep her from roaming throughout the house. She's getting more and more clever.. a couple of weeks ago she wouldn't have figured out that you can just push pillows aside and crawl through them. I think I need an actual gate.

Dylan Reads "Pat the Bunny"

Dylan's new favorite thing to do is have her parents read her a book called Pat the Bunny by Dorothy Kunhardt. Its a book that has things for her to do on every page.. like look at herself in the mirror, wave to the people in the book, and of course, pat the felt that passes for a bunny. Anyway, she wants to have someone read this book to her endlessly.

Here are a couple of pictures of Dylan trying to get her Dad to read it to her.

"Read me my book!"
