$ Whats the Cost $

So its been a year since I had a baby and today I am getting our very first babysitter, sad I know but I have no clue how much you pay them. way back when i was a kid(ha ha) I got 2 dollars and hour but its been a really long time so if anyone could help me out and give me a suggestion of what the going rate is for a babysitter the help would be much appreciated.

We went miniature golfing on Saturday! it was a beautiful day not too hot. of course Steve won but is anyone surprised? the last couple hole I let Dylan help me out and i think that I did better with him helping me!

The Birthday Boy!

Dylans is now 1 year old! I cant believe that my baby is becoming such a little man. He is so much fun and was so happy all day long and it was so much fun to have grandma and grandpa robertson here to spoil him on his special day!

We went to Toys R Us to exchange a gift that he got double of and they gave him a Birthday crown and a toy wrestling guy which he loved, it took a little convincing to get him to keep the crown on but once he forgot about it everything was good.

After his nap Dylan found the empty wrapping paper roll and loved making noises into it.

Once Dad got home from work it was time to open the presents!

it didnt take him long to figure out how to unwrap the presents

Helping dad put together his new toys!

And he's off!

He got this train from grandma and grandpa and if you push the yellow buttom it blows the balls up and out of the train. It only took once to show him what buttom to push and he did it on his own after that!

Grandma and Grandpa Robertson came out just for Dylans birthday. It was so nice to have some family around to celebrate his 1st birthday.

Birthday Boy!

Happy Birthday Dylan! We love you so much. Love MOM and DAD.

We went to some friends house last week to play and they had just returned from a trip to the beach and they brought back some of the sand from the ocean so the kids decided to play in it. At first Dylan did not want anything to do with the sand but once we put water in with it he was all for it, he even tried to eat it a few times but we had so much fun and we are glad that we got to play in the sand!

Hand-Foot-Mouth Disease

This past week Dylan broke out in this rash all over his hands and feet. it just started out as a bunch of little red dots and then after about a day they started to look like blisters. Today i took him to the Doctor and she said that it is Hand-foot-Mouth Disease(what!) There is nothing that you can do for them and they are very Contagious so it looks like we wont be going anywhere for the next week. The symptoms are alot like any other thing babies get.... fever, runny nose, cough, and of course red spots and blisters on the hands feet and mouth( yes he has them on his tongue, sad isnt it) So I thought that since I thought it was just a cold that i would let everyone know to lookout for it and just keep you kids home if they have it. Hopefully it will go away soon.

This picture is kinda hard to see but its of his lovely blisters on his toes.

If you click on this picture it will make it bigger and a little easier to see.
