2 going on 16

So the other morning Arlo and I had just finished breakfast as usual; He had his favorite Honey nut Cheerios and I had my Kashi (not so much my fav, but a prego lady needs fiber) afterwards we read a few stories and were looking out the window on the couch, like we do everyday when he just kind of hopped off my lap and walked into his room. After a few minutes of not hearing any noise I got curious and went to see what he was doing. I open the door to see my baby boy with his CD player open and various CD's strewn about. He looked up at me with his intense face (the one he gets when he is deeply involved in play/work) and said "Mom, I need some Privacy" he then scooted me out the door and shut it. The next thing I know his favorite CD (Books About UFO's) is blasting and he is singing and dancing along to it. Here I am standing outside my 2 year olds door kind of getting panicky. He's 2! Shouldn't he want to hang out with me all the time? I mean just yesterday I couldn't get him to leave while I went to the bathroom.... and today he needs Privacy to listen to his Rock music???? Wow...It really does happen so fast!

Hello little Baby

Below is a conversation Arlo and I had yesterday

Arlo:Mom I want you to fly me like uncle Eric

Mom: Well sweetie that is really hard for me. I am not as strong as uncle Eric

Arlo: Or daddy?

Mom: Right

Arlo: because your sick?

Mom: Well, a little bit

Arlo: And you are sick because we have a baby in your tummy?

Mom:Yes, I do have a baby in my tummy

Arlo: (Walks up to my tummy and puts his mouth right next to it) Hello little baby, Hello you are cute. We love you (Kisses my tummy)

I could have died of cuteness!

Dilley #2 is comming

We are happy to announce that we are expecting a new little Dilley! We just hit the 12 week mark and had our first ultrasound. The baby was so clear and moving like crazy (looks like another active one!) We are very excited and should be having him or her around Sep 24. We will see how Arlo takes to sharing some of the spotlight. Right now he is saying he really want's a little sister. I am pretty sure this has something to do with his cousin Hay Hay, who he worships. We are all very excitied.
