The Dillon Report

* Almost 16 months
* Gives bear hugs which involve him launching
into your arms and growling
* Eats broccoli dipped in cocktail sauce
* Had his first ice cream cone last week
* Auntie Ashley taught him to say "puh-ple" for the purple crayon
* Adores bubbles
* Currently enjoys the Strawberry Shortcake kitchen set
that was mine. He and I had tea when he was last here.
* Thinks it's nothing short of magical when I
"crack an egg" on his head
* Likes "bay-bawl" just like Daddy, as evidenced by this photo.
He put the hat on himself, by the way.
* Flips up the ring on his pacifiers and tucks it under his nose.
* Is immediately placated by singing "The Itsy Bitsy Spider"
* Perpetually wants to go "outsigh"
* Managed to get Mama, Justin, Eva and me to sing"Ring
Around the Rosies" with him.His favorite part is "we all fall down."
* Calls Eva "Bah" for no apparent reason
* Finds it insanely funny when I run and say
"Chugga-chugga! Chugga-chugga! Whoo whoo!"
* Squeals with delight when Justin gets after him
with "the cheepers", aka tickles him.
* Enjoys gardening, especially digging and watering
* Hates it when his feet are dirty
* Very earnestly requests "juice"
(which sounds like "Jew" when he says it)
* Is very quickly becoming a little person - amazing

How wonderful that he is showing more and more of himself every day! I can't wait to hear more about who he will become. What a cutie pie. :)

Love. It!

And you absolutely must save these lists for him/Eva, for someday.

awesome update!

loves digging and watering, but hates when his feet get dirty? hmm.

I think I'd laugh a lot if you ran around saying, "chugga chugga choo choo" too!

What a special little boy with a family that loves him so dearly. (that's a beautiful first shot, what a great place to grow up)Thanks for letting us share in his growing up with you.
