Dawson's 9th Birthday

Our summer vacation will be interrupting what would've been Dawson's birthday party this year. So instead we decided to have a smaller party with a few of his best friends. Look at the last picture of Dawson - he sure is growing up - and looking handsome!

Look at My New Hat!

We got a couple of posed shots with Jax this morning before church. What a cutie!

Happy Boy

We were finally able to get Jax in video laughing. Enjoy the footage!

Him is So Cute Boy

We couldn't help setting up a couple posed shots of Jaxin after church today. He was in a great mood and looked so cute in his "painter" outfit.

Cuz Carissa Pays a Visit

Nathan and Christina came up this weekend. It was Carissa's second encounter with Jaxin and she was very good with him. We put her in the crib with him and she started gently touching his forehead, then bent down and have him a kiss.

On Saturday morning we had a nice breakfast, complete with bacon on the griddle. Carissa watched patiently while it cooked.

Fantastic Gymnastics

Dawson got invited to one of his best friends' (Somer) birthday party, which was at Mercury Gymnastics in Tiffany Springs. All the kids had a great time jumping around, swinging on ropes, always able to land in a huge pool of foam blocks.

Nice Faux-hawk!

Dawson had spirit week at school this week, which means everyday the kids have to dress according to the daily theme. Today was "rocker" day so we decided to give Dawson a faux-mohawk, otherwise known as a faux-hawk (pronounced foe-hawk). Of course Dawson can't resist posing for the camera. :)
