Wait, What?!?

So yesterday Dillon & I were at the hospital with my sister-in-law, Susan (nothing serious - just a doctor's appointment). While we were there, I needed to use the restroom. The door to the little girl's room said that there was a baby changing station inside. Good to know, I thought. Then I saw the sign over the changing table that made me almost pee my pants...
Baby Changing Station
Max. Weight Limit
250 pounds
What kinds of babies is Kaiser expecting to be using this changing table?? (and where's the camera when I need it?)

Idol Review

Last night's Idol wasn't too bad. I was sad and a little surprised to see Phil go home, but I fully expected that Chris would be sent packing. My prediction was that it would be Lakisha and Chris, so I was half right. It's going to be hard now, because the final four are all really good.
Here are some of my random thoughts on this weeks show:
  • The Ford music video was really creepy. I didn't really like it and was a tad freaked out by it.
  • I'm not reall sure if I like Blake's new hair - I hope it's just temperary - he looks better blonde.
  • Robbin Thicke is very strange - looking and sounding. I had never really seen him or heard him. I kept waiting for his voice to get lower - it was unnaturally high. And he looks so much like his dad - just a strange verison of him

Life With My One Year Old

Can I say that I just love life with a one year old? I have always wanted a baby - a newborn if you will - but I never gave much thought to having a toddler or -gasp- an older kid. But one is so fun! One year olds can do so much more than the itty-bitty babies can. They can say Mama (or in Dillon's case: Mom) and Dada and know what they mean. And Dillon gives the best kisses - albeit a little wet and sloppy - but they completely melt your heart. He will crawl up to me and hug me, he can tell me when he wants more Cheerios, and gets so excited by praise that he starts clapping and screeching with joy. He loves to clap - I sing him the "Wheel's on the Bus" song but change the words to "the Dillons on the bus go clap, clap, clap" and he claps along right on cue. I love seeing him grow and learn. I love seeing the excitement in his eyes when he accomplishes a new or hard task. I love his sense of wonder when he sees or hears new things. I love how happy he gets when he gets to go outside. I love when he shares his Cheerios (or pretends to but pops them into his mouth at the last second). I love one!
