VACATION!/Graduation!

This is the beginning of our hiking adventures with Dillan all decked out in his hiking garb

We are officially college graduates as of April 24, 2009. Kellie graduated with a bachelor's of arts in Economics and I graduated with a bachelor's of science in construction management with a management minor. Yeah! no more homework forever!.... until graduate school. In order to celebrate we went with my family to southern Utah and hiked/mountain biked/and rock crawled in a few national parks. It was great fun and Dillan was an amazing boy as usual. (until he pooped all over himself while we were 3 miles into a hike)
Here are a bunch of pictures of the trip and some updated photos of Dillan.

Dillan...our little puppy

We just found out that instead of a baby boy we were given a puppy. Put anything on his bottom lip and will lick lick lick! He is a very happy baby (accept for the immunizations he just got), and he is learning so fast. Yesterday he noticed his hand for the first time, he eats and sucks on his fist all the time, but this time he actually stopped and looked at it! Sometimes we put stuff in his lap to give him something to look at, he has started looking at and purposefully touching those things! Currently his favorite thing is "talking" to himself, to the ceiling fan, and to people.

Baby Blessing

Yesterday was Dillan's baby blessing. He seemed to know it was an important day and was an angel all morning as we got everything ready. It was a very special day.

The man of the hour!

New Pictures of Dillan

Here are some new pictures of Dillan. He keeps on growin. He started smiling a couple days ago so we tried to get some pictures of that, he also can watch people a lot better and track movements that are happening. He takes quite a bit of time, but he sure is a cute little guy.
