9 month check-up

Wow...how is it even possible that on Thursday my sweet little Dillypants is going to be 9 MONTHS OLD!!!!! Please make time sloooooow down. I made the appointment for his ONE YEAR check-up today and almost cried.

So needless to say Dylan is growing like a weed. He weighed in at 22 lbs 7.5 oz which is the 80th percentile....although I'm shocked by this fact.....And he is 30 1/2 inches tall which is the 97th percentile. Parker at 9 months was 21 lbs 4.7 oz and 30 1/2 inches...

OMG Can you tell who's who???? I guess i didn't realize how much they truly look alike....WOW

Football Season

It's the most wonderful time of the year....Football Season.

And it seems just in time for the "real" games to begin, the weather is beginning to cool off making it feel like fall. Soccer starts this week too and Tony will be coaching our team again this season. Parker is very much looking forward to playing. I'm so glad he found something that he likes to do. He is also excited about football...watching it, not playing it. he stayed up late to cheer on our beloved Gamecocks. He is so much fun now. He yells at the TV, albeit he doesn't usually yell the correct thing, but his spirit is there and I love it! He is starting to ask about the rules of the game and the scoring and the flags. By next season he'll be an expert and i'm thinking of taking him to Columbia for a game...a little mommy/son weekend.

So hear's to an amazing football season complete with a little healthy smack talk amongst all my SEC friends and hopefully ending with the Gamecocks at the GA Dome on December 3rd....I will be there!

And as I do every year....

We hail thee, Carolina, and sing thy high praise

With loyal devotion, remembering the days

When proudly we sought thee, thy children to be:

Here's a health, Carolina, forever to thee!

GO GAMECOCKS...GO FIGHT WIN KICK ASS!!!!!
