So Dilly had his 1st birthday on the 8th of this month. The problem of having a birthday on January 8th, is, of course, that everyone is broke & worn out with much partying. We were trying to decide what to do for Dilly and we ended up just having a small party at our house, just with a cake and a few presents (mostly balls...he's VERY big into balls), which turned out really nice & low-key...probably a lot better for Dillon in the long run, since he's still so little. It's funny, but Dillon seems like a baby to me still, much more so than Noah did when he turned 1. Maybe because Noah was talking more at this age? Not sure. Dilly says a few things..."ball", "light", "apple", "Mama & Dada" and, of course, the requisite "bu" for boob. However, he is very expressive with his facial expressions, pointing, etc. He gets his point across. So here are some pictures of his birthday and the trip to the zoo we took the Saturday afterward. Enjoy!
Dillon "dorkyface" Doss
Vogue, baby. Strike a pose.
The balloons were a huge hit.... close competition to the presents! We probably could have just bought him balloons and he would've been happy as a clam.
"Dorkyface" II
"Ahh, the exctasy of being me."
The cake, from Cold Stone.
"I don't know about this....pretty cold and kinda gross."
"Oh God, my hands, my hands!" (He was actually very disturbed about having the cake & icecream all over his hands, & started crying as he held them up to me, as if to say "wash me up!")
The requisite 1st birthday mess
"Mom, must we do this in the kitchen sink?"

Young cuteness
Ride that tiger!
The circle of life: Noah is amused by the seal, Dillon is amused by Noah. 
Blue eyed boy.

Ha! I like the green frog bathrobe. Dillon looks mightily pleased to be wearing it, and rightly so. I wish they made them in my size.
What a cutie, I know how that is w/ the Jan baby. My 5th's b'day is on the 4th. We rarely ever manange to get any family over for her party since they're all "over" the party thing. Funny how some of them talk so much slower too, I don't mind it though, less for the arguing. If U can believe it my 6th still can't say "mama" he calls me "daddu"
Aww he's such a doll. I miss him. Tell him his Auntie sends him a big hug and kiss. xxx
I'm inline with Freddy. The frog robe is hillarious, and also, quite fashionable. Dill pickle is ADORABLE. you must have more, my dear. :)
Freddie, I will search out a green frog bathrobe for you. Babylove, I still can't get over the fact that you have 6 kids. You know ALL about it. I laughed over the "daddu".
Nik, thanks hon. Hoping job hunting goes well.
Adr: Thank you, you're always so encouraging. ILY haney!
