He's on the charts people!!!

I took this little munchkin to the Doctor today for his 6 month shots etc. .....and guess what! For the first time ever one of my children is actually on the charts!! Well, just for weight, he is still off the charts for height coming in at 31.5 inches. But he is now officially 84 percentile on weight coming in at a measly 20.5 big ones:). This shouldn't be that exciting, it really isn't a big deal. It is just fun to have the doctor say something besides, "he's off the charts, he is so big" Dallas was really cute when Dylan got his shots, he held his little hand and said, "It makes you tough baby Dylan, its ok".

Pumpkin Patch

Today we went to the pumpkin patch. It is pretty far away, but so worth the drive. It was extra special and fun because Ryan came with us! Dallas was pretty excited to see his little girlfriend Raegan. She got out of the car and he said, "I love you Raegan". They walked around holding hands, pretty cute. Dallas wasn't too excited about the pumpkins, we ended up picking one for him. He was much more into the butterfly he found. Dylan was such a good kid and didn't make a peep. He just looked around and smiled alot. Here are some pics of the day. I love the fall(even when it is 89 degrees still:)

Ward Halloween Party

We went to the Ward Halloween Party on Saturday night. I finally talked Ryan out of his Tennis costume idea. We went with the family theme....and went to the party. WE won a prize for family costumes(mostly because not many adults dressed up). It was fun, and Ryan kept throwing his penalty flag at people who didn't dress up. Notice the slicked back hair. He was convinced it made him look more "ref like":)

Buddy Walk for Brooke

Today we went to the Buddy Walk. It was alot of fun, and such a neat thing to be a part of. There were so many people there, all supporting such a wonderful cause. We were proud to be there representing our little niece Brooke.

Fi-Foe-Fum "giant" Kitty

Hi, My name is Fi-Foe-Fum-Giant-Kitty. I usually just sit here on these rocks. There is a little boy named Dallas who comes to see me about 7 times a day. He named me Fi-Foe-Fum-Giant-Kitty because he describes anything that is large as "Fi-Fo-Fum" He comes to see me as soon as he wakes up at 7:00 am. He comes to see me before he takes his nap at 1:00. He comes to see me when he wakes up from his nap at 4:30. He comes to see me when his Dad comes home. He comes to see me before he goes to bed. I keep wondering.... why on earth has this kid's mom not gone out and gotten him his own Fi-Foe-Fum-Giant Kitty........well because then I would be lonely.

KISSES:)

Dallas is a little charmer lately. He is constantly saying, " I love you too" That is how he says I love you, he thinks you always have to put a "too" at the end. Whenever I do something that makes him really happy.... I get rewarded with one of these(yes... alot of the time it requires giving him candy whenever he wants it, but I think it's worth it:)

Haloween is coming:)

Haloween is coming....I finally made our house a little more festive. Nothing like glitter and skulls and black cats and pumkins to make you feel the fall(when it doesn't look like fall outside:)

Ryan's worst nightmare

It's no secret that I LOVE my rap music. It is also no secret that Ryan does NOT love my rap music. Whenever I am in my car I usually play songs that come off the curious george sountrack, or other kid friendly tunes, so Dallas has not really been exposed to much of my favorite music. Well the other day Dallas and I were watching The View, (I know what your thinking, what kind of Mom has her 3 year old watch the View with her?) He was mostly playing "fast cars" and I was watching the View. Anywho....The guest on that day was the rapper T.I. who preformed his hit single, "Whatever you like". Dallas started Dancing and smiling and singing along with it. After the show was over he kept asking for, "Whatever you like song". So I rewinded the performance like 3 times, he loved it and we went on with our day. Well after his nap he came out of his room and the first thing he said was, " I want Whatever you like song again". He, he hehehehehehe:) It looks like Dallas got more than just the blonde hair and blue eyes genes from his Mom, he also got the love of rap music gene:)I downloaded his song to my ipod and here is Dallas dancing to his new fave:)

Vegas extravaganza part 2

What better to do in Vegas than shop, shop, shop! On day 2 of the Vegas extravaganza we hit up the best, best, best outlet mall I have ever been to. In between stores we found one of those little boothes that you take pictures in. I just can't ever pass those booths by. So we took a few pics, little did we know there is a screen on the outside of the booth giving passers by a play by play of what is going on inside:) While we were shopping the boys were......Ya, thats right...watching MORE football.




They got really hungry, and we hurried to meet them for dinner at the Mandalay buffet! Ryan was a little upset that I kept getting the little kid food and not the expensive stuff like Crab and lobster:)


The highlight of the trip was when we were walking back to the car and Jamie heard a band playing in front of a bunch of tables. There was a dance floor but no one was dancing. Pretty sure she got us to go up in front of everyone and start dancing to songs like, "Love train", and some Christina Aguilara song.


On the way up to the room Jamie stopped a random pirate guy and asked if we could take a picture with him:)


We tried to watch Saturday night live that night, but Ryan and Matt were worn out from all the football watching:)





Then on day 3 we had a great breakfast at IHOP and headed to the airport. When I came home I got to see this little pumpkin. He has had a rash on his chest from all his drool and I hadn't been able to get it to go away. Pretty sure Mary Poppins Pam had it completely healed when I got back, and she had fixed his little swing, and had made my house cleaner than I ever could:) Oh, and I learned a new Mommy trick from the gal's in Vegas to help the little guy. Just went to costco and bought some q-tips gals:)

Vegas vacation: Day one

Just got back from a little trip to good old Las Vegas. We left the shorties with Pam(aka: Mary Poppins). I don't think I could have possibly left baby Dylan with anyone but Pamcakes.
Anywho.... Day one: We arrived and I was super excited to get to see Jamie's baby Grady for the first time. Let me tell you that kid is a CHAMP visiting Vegas twice in his 9 week life and loving it. Perfect baby!! and it was nice to hug him and hold him. I did wish Dylan could have met his future best bud... next time. The boys watched football(can't get enough of that at home I guess). We had a yummy dinner at Cheesecake factory, Jean won big on the slots, and we got some quality foot rubs from a masseuse named Jamie
