Summer is here!!

Emilie and Harrison

We got to spend time with Harrison's buddy, Emilie, on Saturday...they had a great time together.

Emilie loved Harrison's Elmo...I think I was singing the pizza song in my sleep-Let's just say I almost sent it home with Emilie for her mommy Julie to enjoy:)

Snack time

Harrison did a great job of emptying the dump truck and Emilie was great at putting the blocks back in. We decided that we eventually need a girl in the Dieker household:)

Cousins

Within 5 minutes of getting in the car this is what I saw in the rear view mirror. Everyone tells me that they have an active child and then they see Harrison and they really see ACTIVE child. He didn't sit still the entire time we were at my sister's house-well he kept stopping and shaking Hudson's hand, patting his head, or rubbing his back...It was nice to spend time with my sister and let the boys play together-Harrison napped from 10:30 to 1!!!!! We decided we needed to get together more ofter:)

Hudson kept trying to carry his sippy cup around by his mouth...such a cutie!

The Great Outdoors

We saw a deer up close and personal

I love spending time with my family and exploring the beautiful outdoors!!! I am always laughing and smiling!!

Family photo attempt.

Harrison enjoys his new jogging stroller-Thank you Dee (one of my co-workers) for letting us have your jogging stroller it is so much easier to use on all terrains!!! We have already put a lot of miles on it!!!

1st Haircut!!!

So on Harrison's 14th Monthday we decided it was time to even out his hair a little bit. He has the oddest hairline-one giant triangle shaped cowlick on the front of his hair, a whirlpirl in the back, and no hair on the side-the back was all curls and daddy thought it was time to get ride of them. Honestly I got a little emotional with this because I know he would look like a big boy afterwards and I would be reminded even more that he is growing up so quickly. We went to shear madness and they were great with him.

I can't be seen getting my picture taken in this HUMMER!!!

Miss Amy did a great job cutting his hair and the dinosaur saved the day!!!

We had a choice of a hummer, airplane, pink car, or golf cart...the hummer was the only one that had a seat belt.

The before and after shot...priceless:)

Our 1 year old

Every evening befor bed Harrison sits in his little chair and we read or just relax. He loves to hug around my neck and give kisses:)
Can you say tired boy? He feel asleep with Craig on the couch.

Rain, Rain go away...love his expressions.

H has been doing lots of new things lately...loves to build with his legos (thank you Uncle Nathan, Aunt Stephanie, and Owen), loves sorting his shapes, coloring, looking/reading at books, playing outside, and figuring out how things work. He now signs more, milk, eat, drink, please, and thank you. We are going to start adding more signs into the mix. It is so cute-he says thank you after he is given something or please to receive something!!!! Craig put him to bed last night and when he layed him down he signed thank you:) He is also doing well with using utensils while eating his meals, however by the end of it he is just holding the spoon or fork and using his fingers-It's a start though.

Driving lessons

Our guy is definitly an outdoors guy. He loves his time with Grandpa DuBois and his green tractor!!! He got so upset when he had to get off and go take a nap:(
