{Dax's Birthday Party}

Daxton's baseball cake! It says his name in chocolate
and has a 1 in the right hand corner. The other brown globs
are supposed to be baseball bats.
(Thanks Kaycee for the help frosting cupcakes :)

He had a great birthday with his Grandparents from both sides, Aunts, and hmm, Aunt Mallary's family! He did really dig into his cake and put it all over my screen door but I didn't get pictures after the start. It started raining SO hard when we were ready to do cake, so Dax sat on the porch in his high chair and ate with the door open while the rest of us stayed in the house to watch from there, poor baby! He loved his presents, and Treycin was so darned excited for those tractors to be opened!

{Dax-Man's 1}

Remember this little guy. . .

Well, now he's this little guy!!

Our little Dax Man turned 1 on the 1st of this month!

He weighs- 19 lbs 5 1/2 oz (10%)

Height- 28 1/4 inches tall(10%)

Head- 46 3/4 inches (75%)

He also started walking in the past week and has done very well. He says whatsat?, bompa (grandpa), light, mama (his fav. word ;), and dada. He has grown so fast! He is such a fun little boy and we just love him to pieces! He rarely has an unhappy moment (that is if you don't count the times that he whines to get up when I'm on the phone) He switched to a cup easily, which I am SUPER happy about! No Nursing!! And he started sleeping through the night when he stopped nursing, YAY!! Love you Dax Man!

*You may think that he is small (Gina), but the doctor said he is following his curve perfectly!!

{What?!?!}

I know it's serious, I have blogged more than once a month!! :)

{Baby Monster}

I know, he LOOKS sweet!

But this is the true side of Mr. Dax, BABY MONSTER!!

Yeah, we're into everything now and all I SHOULD be doing is cleaning up after him :)

{Dylyn's 3!!}

I can't believe that Dylyn is 3! She has grown up so fast especially in the last year! She is so sweet (most of the time :). She is very smart and ALWAYS has something to say or sing . . . and I mean ALWAYS! I forgot to take a picture of her birthday present but we got her a picnic table with an umbrella and a sandbox. She is in heaven! I will post pictures of that a little bit later along with her little playhouse I am working on. We just had a small party at our house the night of her birthday and it was really nice. I made her sunflower cupcakes with a little direction from Aunt Stacey, Thank You so much! And WOW was that a lot of flower petals I piped! I'm glad birthdays only come around once a year!

]\{Dance Recital}

Dylyn's dance recital was May 21st. It was the first time I had seen her dance in a long time because I can't stay at practice with her because she won't do it if I'm there. She did so good! She is making lots of friends but I think most of them will move to a different schedule and she will stay in the baby class until she's 5. We definitely do not have the attention span for more dance ;) I have a video of it but i forgot to grab the disc. I will try to upload it later :)

{Running}

Merralee and I are in the process of training to run 5K races this summer. We are on week 7 now of our 9 week Couch to 5K program. I ran like 2 miles on Friday afternoon, and that is a huge improvement since I have never been able to even run a mile straight! Yay me!! I'm so excited to keep going and to make bigger goals for next year! We are planning to do as many races as we can this summer not to win them but just to finish them. I have now lost 17.4 lbs by running and following the Weight Watchers plan. So exciting! I wish that they would have worked up to running when we were in school and maybe I would have been able to run then. So that's what we've been up to and I will keep you updated on our progress!
