Time Flies

When you're having fun!!

Here are some pictures that never made it on the blog over the last few BUSY months. Thought they were worthy of a look:Golfing at the put-put at 18 months old.Little mister loves the water at any age.

At 19 months old Dallen got into Mommy's lipstick, and then got in trouble.
At 20 months old, Daddy said farewell to the courtroom that has been his home for the last 2 years and started a new job.Daddy also took Dallen to support our local congressman.
At 21 months, Dallen ate and loved lots of pancakes:Found new uses for his bookshelf:And started dressing himself:

With all the time that has passed, there are just a few things I want to make sure I remember about Dallen right now at 22 months:
*Dallen is so possessive of his Mommy and its so cute when Daddy hugs Mommy he gets jealous and wants in on the action, so he says “famy (family) hugs”
*His favorite thing to eat is a Lunchables Pepperoni pizza meal. I just love to hear him say “pizza, pep-roni”
*When watching some of his favorite movies, that he’s seen a million times, he repeats the last word of every line, its ADORABLE!!
*He has started to sing along to the radio and to movies. He also sings “clean-up, everybody” when we are cleaning up toys.
*He calls the alphabet "A B C B’s" and his favorite letters are “P-U” cause it makes him laugh. His other favorite letter is E, cause he can recognize it anywhere. For some reason he decided that on its side it looks like a castle and now he knows it.
*Also, for some reason recently instead of just saying oopies (oops) he says Oopie-CB’s?!?!
*Dallen has been saying a lot of words for some time now, but he continues to surprise me with the words he knows the meaning of. He uses the following words at the right times, when they apply: “float”, “both”, “heavy”, and of course this AZ summer he feels “hot”.
*He is so good at communicating with me. He tells me “I can’t reach it” so I tell him to get his stool, and he does. He says lots of creative 3 and 4 word sentences like “my get it” or "my do it".
*Of all the things he can say, he can’t quite get “to infinity and beyond”, it comes out just “fee- on”
*Lastly, Dallen has started calling me MOM and it makes me feel OLD!!
