Sneak Peek #2

All I have to say is.... LOVE IT!!

Landon, our good friend and photographer, has been teasing us by posting one pic at a time up. This is todays photo. :) We go tonight to view all the pictures. I can't wait to see them all.

The photo shoot was a blast, well lol, let me reword that. The photo shoot was great and eventful. Landon was very patient with us. Naked baby in a photo studio = challenging. I think it was the first pose, Dylan was laying on his side in this adorable basket on a nice fluffy blanket, he decided Landon's studio needed to be sanitized. He peed EVERYWHERE. I tried to catch it, lol, yes catch it. I managed to cup my hands to where most of it just soaked the blanket he was on. It still ended up all over the floor, lol. So we changed out the blanket and kept shooting pics, and yes he peed on that one too.

Needless to say EVERY blanket I took plus some of Landon's stuff ended up with some kind of baby fluid on it, lol.

Dylan wasn't too fond of laying on his stomach for poses and being cold meant fussy baby. Jeremy is amazing with him, he would calm him down in between shoots. The picture above, was a improvised hammock using one of the blankets Landon had in the studio. Jeremy and I are holding each side of it. When he would get fussy we would swing him back and forth, pause and snap a few photos. Worked wonders!!! (Grandmothers don't cringe at this, lol, he was barely even off the ground)

I'll try and post more pictures soon. Dylan is one of Landon's mini models so I am thinking some of the shots will be on his website. I'll post the link once they are up.

Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas any more.

Yes that is a tornado and yes that is the school right beside my house! Scary?!?! Scariest part was that me and Dylan were here at the house and I absolutely didn't have a clue!!! Our neighbor took this picture. For those of you unfamiliar with this area. Our house is located between the school and the tornado in the picture. It touched down just southeast of here. Luckily, it didn't do any damage or hurt anyone. Goodness! I guess I better start paying attention to the weather.

Dylan 1 Month

Dylan is 1 month old today!



One month ago today the Lord blessed us with this sweet little bundle of joy. The time has flown by. I still remember every moment of that day. I am enjoying every moment I get with this little man. He is growing like crazy. He was born at 9.5 lbs and 21 1/2" long. At his 2 week check-up he weighed 10.7 lbs and 22" long. At 3 weeks and 5 days he weighed right at 12 lbs. I absolutely LOVE his chunky legs, and how his arms and face are filling out.

We went in today for shots, not fun! At least he only had to have 1 today. Next time it's 2. At least we have a month though. We do not have to go back until he is 2 months.

As I was waiting for the elevator to leave today, a lady (also lugging around an infant carrier) asked me how old Dylan was. Turned out Dylan at a month looks just as big as her 10 week old, lol. Got to love my healthy boy.

I will try my hardest to continue to update this with new pictures!

Lots of love~
