Grandparent time is about to hit OVER DRIVE !  After months of not seeing either set of grandparents, Dyl will be seeing Grandma and Grandpa next week, and Grannie and Grandad the first week of May.  There will even be an overlap where he will have ALL 4 grandparents at once !  Wooh.  How will he cope with this amazing treat?

I've been saying that they will all see a major change in him since the last visits.

There is no doubt he's a little boy.

He says funny things.

He has a sense of humour

He is learning to count

"won, too, fife,siss"

not sure where three and four went.

He takes showers himself.

He asks for the window to be rolled down in the car

He picks what he wants to eat.

He has a stubborn streak

He adores certain things- not just likes, but adores.

He HAS to sleep with a minimum of six hundred teddies.

We've always called three teddies "sleeping babies" - he now uses the term.




(and Daddy Barney isn't even pictured here, so add a 3 foot barney to this)

 

The other night we tucked him in with lots of teddies... and as I was leaving his room, he said  "too sleep babies" I just said yes and left.  Then as the door closed, he cried.  I went in and asked what's wrong, he said again " too sleep babies- mommy room"

Then I remembered- the two blue sleeping babies were on my bed.  He was specifically asking for them. 

Awwww.

He won't sleep without "daddy barney" who is three feet tall.

He says ni ni when you leave him in his bed.

He says "ove ew" back when you say love you.

He has started to smell everything.

We were in superstore today getting groceries and I asked him if he smelt anything....he made a face where he crinkled his nose and wrinkled his lip. 

 I laughed and asked him again to show me the smell face. 

So next time you see him, ask for the smell face- it's cute.

He cries when his friends leave our house or we leave their house. 

Once after a playdate he cried in the car...

"more Jayce house..."

He wanted a treat in superstore today... and I pretend chastised him... I said... " Dylan Matthew Brandt !!"

He said

"no Matthew Brandt"

haha

If you ask him his name, he will say

"Din Cook"

He picks himself out in pictures- even baby ones.

and he picks his nose... constantly....

He pretend burps and then says "din burp" and laughs

He's become a bit of a cuddler.

F  I   N  A  L  L  Y  !!!!!

He is very sensitive to hurt right now.....

He cries if he gets hurt and you have to kiss whatever it is better.

He reads along with certain story books.... you stop, and he fills in words.

He would read 24/7 if he could.

He knows when to turn on the charm... just wait and see....

He's just the cutest little thing ever.

Should I go on?
