They're growing up so fast...

Dillon has decided to make up for the fact that he didn't roll over for over 7 months. Since figuring out how to roll back to tummy he now...

1. Rolls around ANY time you set him down or spins himself around on his tummy.
2. Gets on his hands and knees and rocks (he managed to move forward a little bit yesterday)
3. Wants to stand up whenever possible (he holds onto things and plays, if he's holding onto your hands he'll let go with one hand now)
4. He's figured out the motion of walking and if you hold his hands to support him he'll start trying to walk where he wants to go.
5. Has started thinking about cruising around furniture (he made it several inches moving his hands and his feet around a footstool yesterday)
We're so excited for the phase he's starting into. I love the crawling/walking phase! He's starting to lose a little baby fat since he moves so much now! He's still a cute little chub but he's definitely trimming up.
Kayda is still trying to figure out talking. She's added the word "go" (she loves to race) and has learned some animal sounds. Cow (she's known for a while), dog, chicken, sheep and monkey. She is starting to want to help me make Dillon's bottles. Sometimes she helps me scoop in the formula.
Last Friday, Monday and Today they stayed over at Aunt Anna's with her, Peyton and Mikey while I was working. (Grandma G is in Pullman) Kayda has been having a blast! Apparently on the first day there Aunt Anna discovered that Mikey had a poopy diaper and Kayda went and got her the diapers and the wipes. Kayda loves playing with them and apparently Peyton has been enjoying it becasue today he said" Kayda's leaving?" Aunt Anna told him yes and Peyton's response was "I will miss her." I'm glad that he enjoys her company so much. Dillon is having a great time with Aunt Anna too, she was playing "boo" with him yesterday so when I got there she showed me. Everytime she said "boo" Dillon just cracked up laughing. Thank you SO much Aunt Anna. It's wonderful to know that they're with someone that they know and are comfortable with while Grandma G is off in Pullman.
