Dawson turns 2

Hi, my name is Dawson and today I am 2. I am 36 3\4 inches tall and 30 lbs.
I love to run and climb. I have almost all my teeth and enjoy brushing them. I still don't say very much, but I am working with a speech therapist and just had my first hearing exam. It looks like I am having trouble hearing on my left side. But not to fear, they think they can correct it by putting in tubes and clearing the ear canal. Keep me in your prayers.

Smile for the camera Dawson, Dawson up hear. SMILE!!

OOOO look! something shiny!
Oh ya, look at the camera. Crap, I keep forgetting.The cake was fun. Don't be to impressed though, I had help.

I molded the tractor out of rice-crispy treats, then frosted it. My friend Don made the wheat and mud field.

He blew them out all by himself.
He was sooooo excited about his new bike.
We made a big tractor out of washer and dryer boxes.
But mostly the kids just liked running around.

Halloween!!!!!!!

Halloween this year was a blast. The boys went as cowboys in outfits that grandma "D" and mom made them. Dawson looks more like Barny Fife that John Wayne, but what ya gonna do.

At the trunk-or-treat at the church, they got to go up on stage and have a costume parade. Their 5 min of fame.

At our Halloween party this year, costumes were mandatory. Jacob went as Humphrey Bogart, and I went as my alter-ego. "Bambie" Ya, I know. Yikes!!!! Nuf said.

Carving Pumpkins

This year we grew our own pumpkins in our garden, so the boys were super excited to go pick and carve them. It was so fun watching Justin go out every day to see if they had grown BIGGER. Then when it came down to actually carving them, he wanted the smallest one, go figure.

Dawson had a blast pulling out, what his brother called, " EWWWW GUTS!". To wich Dawson replied,"EWWWWWLYUCK!".

Shawn and Nathan didn't care much for the texture and made mom do all the work.

Don was having way to much fun.

The finished product.

Dawson and Becca spent most of the time on the couch watching a movie.
