prayers

Every night when we have family prayer we ask to be blessed to make good choices. And every time this is said Dallas whispers, mid-prayer, "I make choices at my school". Teag and I can't help but look at each other with a big smile.
Love this boy of ours!

busy, busy, busy!

It feels like we have been going non-stop!
Between moving, Mother's Day, visitors, recruiting, Vegas, school and life we haven't had many free moments...
updates on all coming soon :)

story I had to share...

Dallas comes up with some pretty funny and pretty cute things...

First, I know I have mentioned what a staple Dal's be-be (binky), gooby (blanket), and baba (sippy cup with milk and chocolate carnation) are in his/our life.
Anytime he is sad, upset, takes a nap or goes to bed he has to make sure he has them. If he is naughty and has to go to time-out he immediately starts crying and in one long word tells us "bebe-gooby-baba". When he watches a show he 'needs' them.

Dallas also likes to talk about when he was in my tummy and thinks it is pretty funny. He will often say to me, "member when I sleep in you tummy mom?" So cute and funny - I get the biggest kick out of it! Anyway, the other day we were snuggling and watching one of his shows, and of course, he had be-be, gooby and baba. He looked up at me and asked, ever so sweetly, "Mom, I have my gooby, be-be, baba in you tummy?" I told him no, trying not to completely bust up. He didn't like that answer, put on his pouty face and said, "I want my gooby, be-be, baba in you tummy mommy!"
So I just went with it and told him he did.
And he got a huge smile :)

His Stats

Our {BIG} boy had his 3 year check up a couple of weeks ago.
He continues to grow, grow, grow
-
WEIGHT: 35.14 (90%)
HEIGHT: 40 1/2 (95%)
-
The doctors are always in disbelief at his size when we go in and told us if he continues to grow at this rate he will be 6'6" - 6'8"! And yes, Teag LOVES to hear that.
He seems skinny to us, but I guess with his height he has quite a few places for the lbs. to go!
I am constantly told how Teag was exactly the same when he was little, so we'll have to wait a few years to see if Dal has his daddy's big build as well ;)
