Little Fred is two!!

I cannot believe it was two years ago that we had our little Fred. I was so scared that day and for the next several as well. He was a fighter from the beginning. He had things to do and places to be. I have to say also, he is definately Fred. Mom and I still call him Dax some but he is our little Freddy Bear. He for sure acts like big Fred:)

Dylan adores him. I am so grateful that they have one another. They are the best of friends and so good to one another. I was worried because of their age difference, but it really has not ever been an issue.

Today on his birthday he is doing great! He is so much fun, laughs at everything, loves everyone, and cracks us up regularly. He loves to yell at Cass and Oreo, our dogs. He thinks he can boss them around, it's pretty cute. He loves his Dad, it's so sweet to watch them play:) If Dad is doing something Fred loves to be right in the thick of things. I know Brady thinks he is a GREAT helper:) He LOVES Nemo. It is his favorite. He is not a big TV watcher but he will watch Nemo over and over and over again. (Perhaps he has Dory's syndrome:)) I love to hear him shout at MEEMO:)) He is such a special boy and we love him dearly.

I will try to put updated pictures on later....I am not good at keeping up with my blog. Life is just so busy, but we will do better!

Gooseberry

Well third grade for Dylan brought about the highly anticipated GOOSEBERRY!! I took Dylan, we went, we got soaked, we DIDN't sleep, and we came home! It really was lots of fun, even if it rained a whole lot. I was so happy to be able to spend some fun time with just Dylan. He is so much fun and such a good boy.

Brady came up for dinner and we ate (after running through the soaking rain to the cabin:)) then watched the kids dance, and then Annie Bangs!

I kind of thought that Dylan would be frightened but he wasn't, at all. He took off with the group of kids following Mr. C and enjoyed the whole scary thing.

Here are a few pics (only a few because the rest of the time we were 'swimming!'

Baby Jenna

We are so happy to say....Baby Jenna is here:) Momma and baby are doing well. Jenna was on room air last night...Awesome! She is truly a miracle.

Tara is doing well also...what an awesome Mommy:)

We love you Kurt, Tara, Gav and Jenna!!!

Happy Birthday Dylan!!

Dylan is eight years old today. As you can see from the pictures his birthday lasted all weekend. We had tons of fun.

I am so proud of Dylan. He is such a good boy and so so much fun. He is helpful around the house and especially with his little brother Fred whom he loves very very much. Dylan loves to read and play with his friends. He is caring and compassionate. He loves spending time with family, especially his Dad.

He wants to be a racer just like Dad. This scares me to death...we will see how that goes. I am nervous to let him get started but I know Brady will take every precaution.

I cannot believe he is eight! My how time flies. He is a wonderful little boy and we are lucky he is part of our little family.

Love you Dylan:)

This is what we woke up to this morning. I could hear a strange noise, we peeked out the back window and there was a hot air balloon. I ran upstairs and woke Dylan up and he and I ran outside. Apparently they were just landing for a quick break but Dylan thought it was awesome. How fun:)
