Day 17 with out Steve

We are adjusting I guess things are diffrent that is for sure.
Dillon has been going through a phase since steve left I don't know if it is because he left or just his age either way it has been rough. He argues with everything I say. Such as We are going to see a friend who he loves and he has been so excited. He has been talking about seeing Anson all week so now we are going I say Dillon put on your shoes. He refuses and says no and takes off out side. When I finally do get his shoes on and we are out the door he takes off again walking around the front of the house on the sidewalk thingy. So again I have to beg and argu with him over getting in the car. It has been rough it takes us twice as long to do anything and I am not sure what to do about it.
He also has gone back to fighting me on going to bed and he wants to sleep in my bed and even if he goes to bed in his room he ends up in my room. Even if i pick him up and put him back in his room he still ends up in my room. I know this pahse though it happens everytime Steve has left. I really believe it is a security issue he just doesn't feel as safe or maybe he wants to make sure I am going to be there I don't know either way it is bothersome.
Breanna has just been growing so much. She is pointing and just about walking any day now. Ofcorse I have been saying that for a while now. She still says momma on a regular basis and Dillon keeps begging her to say Dillon lol. I am pretty sure she is in a growth sput again cause she is waking up to eat the only good thing about that is she holds her own bottle. She is also a pacifer girl somethign I have never dealt with and if it wasnt so cute and sweet I would try and take it from her. She loves her animals in ther crib and cuddles with them all the time. She also is showing signs now of not being able ot go to sleep with out something to cuddle with, she has not picked any one thing but today she would not go to sleep in the car until i handed her a blanket to cudle with.
Today we went to the beach and it was really nice. The weather was good and Dillon even played and got very wet in the freezing ocean. Breanna and him were freezing after about an hour and half so we left. Brea did not get wet but the breeze was cold in the shade where she stayed under the umbrella. I am actually trying to get a tan so was not under the umbrella lol. She was very sandy and even ate some but was not as into it as I remember Dillon being when he was young. They split PB&J sandwichs and I thought it was so sweet. After words they cuddled up on the couch for a few minutes together and I thought that was sweet to. They really do seem to love one another.
