LOVING our little man!!!

This boy just absolutely melts our hearts! We have been having so much fun with him and are so happy the 3 of us have had so much time together since we've been in Cedar, especially since we know come football season things will change quite a bit :)

A few of mister's favorite things these days...

* hiking, either by himself or in the pack on Teag's back

* cars! the kid is obsessed with hot wheels and anytime we go to the store he wants a new one...or two, or three, or four!

* helping clean...there is a toy vaccuum at the gym that he became obsessed with, so we got him one of his own and he is always eager to help out :)

* playing hoops! although, Teag tries to sneak and raise the hoop but we just hear screams of "too high!" so it goes back down to dunk-level

* Elefun is hella-fun in this house these days!

* he loves his little people and any other little guys, i.e. the wonder pets, diego and crew, etc.

and he loves loading them in and out, in and out of his shopping cart

* counting

* singing abc's with mom

* KETCHUP! he will start out dipping whatever he happens to be eating, but by the end of the meal he is just eating the ketchup with a spoon

* he points to Teag's tattoo's and says "YUCK!"...hilarious!

* he is still cRaZy about his be-be's & baba's

* he is convinced daddy can do or fix ANYTHING! Whenever things aren't just right in his little world it is "daddy! daddy!" to the rescue

* he loves to help with the laundry

* he is still SO good at going to bed...as long as he has be-be's, baba's, blankies & buddies :)

* dancing whenver music comes on a commercial

* still LOVES reading and is now saying the words along with us on his favorites :)

the best are 'animal kisses' and 'noisy kisses'

* he is becoming quite the chatterbox with his ever-growing vocabulary

* he loves to have Teag or I (preferably both) snuggle with him while he watches Diego or Meeska (mickey mouse clubhouse)

* he is very appreciative and ALWAYS tells us "thank you!"

* he loves the fake cough and having us ask him (very concerned, slightly sarcastic)

"are you okay, Dallas?!?!" to which he responds "yeah, okay!"

Zions with Chad & Meg

We were so excited to have Chad & Meg down for the weekend! We have so much fun with them and love to hang with them whenever we get the chance! They love hiking and the outdoors too, so we decided to head to Zions for the day. Chad did his research and found a crazy hike for he and Teag to do...Dallas, Meg and I opted out and just checked out the town and the shops and rode the bus through the park - Dallas was in heaven and reminded us every 30 seconds that we were on a "big bus!"

At the top of the Canyon View Trail...breathtaking!

Awww! The cute couple :)

It is a good thing Meg loves hiking, biking, etc. because Chad is HARD-CORE!

He and Teag did the 'Angels Landing' hike. At the top you have to use a chain and foot-holds because it is a cliff of both sides of you. Yeah, I wasn't so comfortable with Teag doing that one with Dallie in the pack

Dallas and daddy all set to go!

Dallas has so much fun with Uncle Chad and he adores Aunt Meg!

He was so sad when they left he kept running in the back room, crying and saying "Chad and Meg bye-bye"
