Today marks 2 months since Dylan joined our family!\u00c2\u00a0 What have we learned so far about our little man?\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

We learned that he’s willing to risk bodily injury by copying his little sister.\u00c2\u00a0 Hence, the broken leg.\u00c2\u00a0 But, that’s all behind him now since he’s cast free and happy as can be!\u00c2\u00a0 I’m not sure who enjoyed his first bath in almost a month more – him or me!\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dylan’s favorite things to do these days are draw with the dry erase board, blow bubbles, and match colors.\u00c2\u00a0 He loves to find things with matching colors!\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

He loves to show us his belly and yell BELLY!\u00c2\u00a0 We praise him when he eats well, telling him he’s got a full tummy.\u00c2\u00a0 He grins.\u00c2\u00a0 He’s not gained any weight lately, still holding at 27 pounds.\u00c2\u00a0 The pants in the above shot?\u00c2\u00a0 18 month size.\u00c2\u00a0 And, they were roomy.\u00c2\u00a0 He’s 3 1\/2 – the boy needs some pudge!\u00c2\u00a0 I’m adding vanilla instant breakfast powder to his milk.<\/p>\n

Holding food in his mouth has all but disappeared, but he’ll sometimes still refuse to eat a bite of something.\u00c2\u00a0 We can usually encourage him to try.\u00c2\u00a0 And, he eats much more on his own now.\u00c2\u00a0 Last night, he was chowing on chips and salsa :)\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

You’ve heard of a “sweet” and “salty” tooth, right?\u00c2\u00a0 He’s got both.\u00c2\u00a0 In spades.\u00c2\u00a0 Not sure if he’s like that because he didn’t have many treats\u00c2\u00a0in China, or because maybe he had too many?\u00c2\u00a0 Probably the latter, thinking of how many birthday cakes came through that orphanage!\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"DSC_1576\"<\/a><\/p>\n

He loves his siblings.\u00c2\u00a0 Insists on hugs and kisses from each one before he goes to bed.\u00c2\u00a0 Lainey loves him tons, as long as he’s not taking her stuff.\u00c2\u00a0 She’s learning to deal with it and we’re being as patient as possible…usually.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"DSC_1598\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What else?\u00c2\u00a0 He learned he can roll his tongue and shows us constantly.\u00c2\u00a0 He’s calling Randy either “baba” or “dally” – trying to say daddy, we think.\u00c2\u00a0 He calls Lainey “Lammy”, which we think is too cute.\u00c2\u00a0 Water is “woggy” and he’s learning to say\u00c2\u00a0“up\u00c2\u00a0please mama” instead of whining for me to pick him up.\u00c2\u00a0 He rushes to find the duck in the Usborn*e books we read at night.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0Everytime, he says “anudda one!”\u00c2\u00a0 He loves for us to spin him around and around when we hold him.\u00c2\u00a0 Daddy is better at this, mama gets dizzy!\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0He holds his little hands together and (usually) closes his eyes when we pray.<\/p>\n

In these 2 months, we’ve learned that life is much more fun with him here!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
