lets make sherbet

Dylan helped squeeze lemons for the Easter Sherbet. Ross also pureed some strawberries and added them-best combo yet!
Cutting a serious rug while wearing a lanyard Ross got at the Oregon Dental Conference he went to that day. Dylan was very excited.
Gramps came to visit and did some water pump maintenence on our car-amid some serious hail! Thanks Gramps!

sisters and bruises

We got to see Kristy and Louge in Boise-and of course had to take some silly pictures.

mr d has taken more than one fall since we got home. since these pictures were taken, another bruise has joined the crowd.

good times in Boise

Dylan had fun-many thanks to the Sherman's for letting us stay in the land of Ducks and Tonka Trucks.

Happy St. Patty's Day

Dylan wishes you a happy day-drink up on the green beer and get to eating that cabbage!

uncle jack brings goodies

Uncle Jack popped in to see our St.Patty's Day decor and have some corn chowder. mmm! Thanks for the Girl Scout Cookies!!! Dylan gave him a hug before bed. Dylan was eating his tomato soup so well today I had to post a picture. I told him he has had a lot of this, especially in the womb.
Here is a pic of Dylan in his new pyjamas from Louge. Yes, he is Swiffering.
This is Dylan just over a year ago. Why isn't his nose still orange? Ross and I wonder....
Thanks for the comments-keep them coming!!! :)

Dylan loves the ladies

Here is Monica, the dental student, helping Dylan brush his teeth. She babysat for him and he was in seventh heaven.
Thanks Monica!! You kick ass. Splashing with a Daddy-made Bubble Fro.

Super cool D.

february is almost spring

To all the blog-readers: we have been MIA b/c of an unfortunate accident with the card reader. I am not naming names, but he is the shortest person in our family! :) We are back and I hope this means you will start posting again, JULIE! I had to post this picture of Dylan in the car b/c he refused to take a nap that day and then finally fell asleep after 3pm and a visit to Aunt Cathy's house. I was trapped in the car and had my camera-it was a great moment because there is nothing cuter than a sleeping kid.

This pic is after finger painting-Dylan did astonishingly well. We stripped it down to the diaper and then he painted his belly button and knee. Believe it or not this was a distraction from constant whining for bubbles, his favorite word.
I love this picture: it will forever remind me that this child refuses to pose in any traditional manner, especially when feeling "set up". Clearly he is giving Cupid the once-over...

He really loves bacon.

snow day

Today Dylan went sledding. Yes, we dressed him in a halloween Tiger suit to keep him warm. Maybe it is a Liger suit, we aren't sure.


Even though he looks serious, he was having a great time. Notice he went down all by himself-and happily!! He is a daredevil.

the chameleon

Colonel Sanders
Santa Claus Mr. T These looks were brought to you by Ross.

fun with play dough

I don't think comments are necessary-do you? :)

December picture

This is Dylan at the beach house. Even though it was December, there was a ton of light coming in the window, so it looks like he is in a studio!

Hey January

Another brush with my arch-nemesis: the floor.
how did this huge red mark, picture taken an hour after impact(falling off of chair), NOT become a black-eye/bruise?

Slow dancing with DaDa, a nightly occurrence in the Mitchell household...
I love this face. Wouldn't you love to know what he is thinking? I'm talking to you, lurkers!!!
"you talkin' to me???"
