My Little Prince

Dylan gets more amazing everyday. After spending just a couple short days apart, I missed him SO much. It felt like he grew up so much in those two days! Middle of summer now and the its really heating up! Dylan continues to love the water! He just steals my heart away!!

A long Time Waited..

Joe and I are so excited we finally shared our Wedding Vows with our family and friends. We had such a great time on July 3rd! Thank you to everyone for your thoughtful wishes and kindness. We are blessed so many people could be with us and missed those of you who could not. We wanted to share a few pictures on Dylan's site here!

The New Place..

We are sooo happy! We are really enjoying meeting all our new neighbors and getting settled in! Sam is getting used to taking daily trips down the street to use the "potty." We are still attempting to grow a yard, whoa, it is work! Dylan loves to swing out on the porch, go for walks, and is starting to move around the house. We will be safety proofing the house. We found a babysitter that is starting to watch Dylan 10 hours a week! Maybe I will get something done this week! Joe and I managed to have our first date since we moved here! We saw the new Denzel and John Travolta movie and then Joe treated me to Sushi! Yes, they have sushi here, but it is the only one in the area! We hosted a couple dinners this week, I really enjoy cooking! Thanks MOM for all the great salad receipes, everyone always loves them! Joe hit it off with our new neighbor and they took off to night fish? ok sounds fun!!! I told him he has to work tomorrow, so try not to stay out too late! We miss Mimi and Papa, however, they have officially learned to use Skype, so we get to see them on web cam!! I am hoping to not kill off the new landscaping my parents worked so hard on. I counted today, Dylan now has 4 teeth, lets hope none of them pull a disappearing act again!!

DYLAN never gets boring..

He is on the VERGE of really crawling! Although he shoots baskets like its going out of style, he still REACHES for almost everything. He has a long reach. Standing next to his new friend who is a little over a year, Dylan is taller, but still NO CRAWLING.. He only wants to play with non-toys, such as my cell phone! So sorry if I accidently call you and all you hear is Dylan... He is also loving to try and play with Sam. He helps me water and helps me clean up. He loves pulling himself up and takes a step. Time flies! I miss him being the tiny baby!!!

SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED!!

Where do I begin!! We closed on our new house on May 21st. We had a little issue getting internet, so I have been unable to blog for about a month! OH MY!! We had a great time being back home for a week or so! We got to travel up to Omaha to visit. We took Dylan to the Omaha Zoo! He really likes animals. He has been very intersted in Sam since my parents came down last weekend. Sam and Dylan are really bonding! WE go for walks every morning and Dylan loves watching him run! Well our house is still a disaster. Luckily my parents helped us do a little landscaping so at least our front yard is starting to look up. We tackled alot while they were here. WE just got our new Sofa!! We just love it!! Our living room is starting to look up too. We still have so much work to do.. Joe is off to Lowes again today, we are going to try and tackle staining/sealing the deck. We have met a few neighbors. Dylan has a new frienid, Clayton, that lives across the street. Sandy, his mother, is very cool and we have enjoyed hanging out with them. We just can't hardly wait for our reception in July! It will be a nice break from house work!! Here are some pictures from the last few weeks. Dylan also got to go to his first T-Bones game with his friend Bennett. They also enjoyed the build a T-Rex at the Legends! I hope to post some pictures of the house real soon!!

Some of my faves with Papa

Dylan and Papa have a lot in common, just even there expressions. Dylan loves hanging out with him. They watch Basketball and golf. They took walks in the Bahamas. He loves when Mimi and Papa babysit!

CONCERT TIME

As I returned from a long year in Afghanistan Brooke surprised me with an amazing gift! After speaking to several radio stations Brooke got us free tickets to see my favorite country singer; Kenny Chesney! Drew and Rachael joined us for an awesome concert that I will never forget! I think someone just won wife of the year!
