Golly Gee look who turned THREE

I can't believe that my baby is 3! Where does the time go? We are loving this age(minus the fits!) Dylan is full of energy...nothing new in that department. He talks non-stop and loves to give kisses. This little man loves all things Curious George, Mickey Mouse, balls, and cars. He doesn't go anywhere with out his basketball, helicopter, and his "shapes" (sunglasses). He loves his blankies. He hates when drawers aren't pushed in all the way, when doors aren't shut, and when his pants ride up above the ankle! It is hilarious. He still climbs everything except he has never tried to climb out of his crib. We can't figure that one out, but we hope he continues to think that he is stuck! He continues to think that he owns the house and his parents...lets be honest he kind of does:) He can be extremely stubborn and extremely sweet. He is a flirt and loves attention!
Dylan loved opening his presents this year. He was excited about all of his presents except the clothes. Come to find out that they are not that exciting to a 3 year old! He was extremely excited about his Curious George blanket and pillow case that Grandmas Davis made for him. His reaction was so cute.

He got a T-ball that he plays with a ton now. He is pretty dang good when it comes to sports, and he can hit that ball pretty far! My front room has mostly turned in to Dylan's play room. I now have a T-ball, soccer net, and a basket ball hoop amongst all of his other toys that are decorating the room.
Jeff and I got him a 4-wheeler that he is loving. It is pretty funny to watch him drive around. He has no concept of steering, so he just goes until he runs into something. Lol. He likes to drag one leg so that he doesn't go too fast.


Birthday cake. Yum. These pictures make us very happy. I, of course, took video of it as well. It is a big deal folks! Dylan has been making some progress with eating. He is not quite as fearful about it and is willing to taste some foods and eat some new ones. We couldn't be happier about it.

Dyl had a cold on his birthday so our plans were changed a bit. We hung out and played with his new toys all day, went out for pizza and watched a movie with our little family.


Loving his new bat. Look it works both ways!

This is the face that says geez Mom, you've had that camera in my face all day long.

We love our monkey so much! Happy Birthday Big Boy!!!!

My Valentine

We celebrated Valentines Day a few days early. Jeff took me on a romantic get-away to a resort in Midway. We had a great time relaxing, eating, and spending time at the spa. Thanks for the fun weekend babe! I had planned to take a lot of pictures, but I didn't! We did visit this ice castle display they had going on up there. It was awesome...and the only time I took any pics.

The Tongs

This child of ours has the funniest obsessions. He is such a crack up. He hates stuffed animals, yet he chooses to sleep with things like medicine cups, walnuts, cars, balls, tongs etc.

So this is the latest- He loves these salad tongs. They are his binoculars, his bat, his grabber. The tongs are the bomb in this little man's eyes. I'm sure it'll be something else next month, but I couldn't let this one pass without documenting it.

Snow Day

Dylan has always loved to look at the snow, but hasn't ever really been interested in playing in it until today. I was out shoveling and next thing I know he is at the door holding his little tiny yellow shovel asking to come out. So of course I obliged and he was my little helper.



After nap time we bundled up in snow clothes and headed out to play. I must have taken 50 pictures and put on quite the show for the neighbors trying to get Dylan to actually look at me. He was way too busy shoveling, kicking, and running around the snowy yard. He kept saying "cheese momma" like he was smiling for the camera. Not so...but I think he thought he was being cooperative! Oh well, I managed some cute shots. PS...I'm loving my new camera.





Dylan refused to wear gloves. I let it slide this time, but next time I think I'll try taping them on!

D and his cars

This video is from Christmas morning. I love it! Dylan LOVES this toy.

Christmas Day

We had a great Christmas and were all spoiled rotten! It was such a fun day spent with our families. We woke Dylan up at 9:00 and he was still dazed for quite awhile. He didn't know quite what was going on with all of these presents! I crack up every time I look at this picture. He was so sleepy. It was fun to watch him rip at the wrapping paper this year. He didn't care much for opening clothes, but he sure liked toys and books!

Dylan showing off all of his loot. He was extremely spoiled!



Uncle Jeff and baby Ivy. We loved loving on her. Such a cutie!




Merry Christmas!

Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve with Gma and Gpa Davis. We had a great dinner, skyped with Nat and Mark, and Dylan opened several presents! Dylan even stopped playing for a few minutes to say hi to Natalie and Mark. We were sad that Mark, Nat, Mich, Nate, and Kade couldn't make it home for Christmas.



Yum Yum...here Papa you have some.





Dylan and Kato the cat have somewhat of an understanding these days. Dylan is trying to give Kato some candy. Luckily Kato is declawed, Dylan just giggles when he swats at him.

Cool Shades Dude

Dylan has been obsessed with his sun glasses the last few weeks. It is so funny. He'll wear them for hours around the house. He says "cool shades". Love this little man...even though we are having MAJOR sleep issues.

Yes~ even in the "bas tubby tubby" as Dylan calls it.


Enjoying some morning cartoons.

Cutler Fam Party

We did our annual Thanksgiving Point trip a few days ago. We visited with Santa's reindeer and rode the trolley to see the lights. Dylan was mesmerized this year.




We did the Nativity with the grandkids... of course my sheperd was running wild! He did look pretty cute in his robe, but this was the best shot I could get with him. Thanks Jordy for trying to hold him still. Haha. He is a crazy man! Notice Baby Jesus being played by new baby cousin Ivy. She is so stinkin cute.

Thanks Mom and Dad. My Dad had both knees replaced last week so he had to sit this year out. We missed you Dad!

Ice Fishing Date

A few weeks ago Dylan had a sleepover at Grandma and Grandpa Davis' house and Jeff and I headed out super early to do a bit of ice fishing. Jeff has been wanting me to go, but lets be honest...I'm not big on the cold. So we got him an early Christmas present (an ice fishing tent) and headed out to give it a try. It was a lot of fun! We caught a bunch of fish and were quite cozy in our hut. Thanks for the date babe!

Santa

We had a little Christmas party and Dylan got to meet Santa. Lets just say that he was not so sure about him. He didn't cry, but he certainly didn't smile.

I'll just take the whole block...

Anything goes at our house when it comes to Dylan eating! He loves to nibble off the block of cheese. I can't think of many things that make us happier than seeing him eat. He has also discovered Nutella and loves it. We have been doing a lot of playing in/with foods. It makes for a messy kitchen a few times a day, but it is a low stress setting and he is willing to taste a few things. Progress...slowly but surely.



Lets be honest- He's really cute!

Favorite Spot

Dylan's new favorite spot is under the Christmas tree. He likes to drive his cars on the branches and throw his balls and see how many ornaments fall off. The bottom several feet are no longer decorated!
