Dallin's First Birthday!!!!

Dallin turned 1 on Sunday!! We celebrated on Saturday with family and friends. Thank you to Mema and Papa for coming all the way from Arkansas and Grandpa and Grandma Smith for making the trip from Utah to celebrate Dallin's special day with us. He wasn't too sure about digging into his cake at first, but he got the hang of it. We hope you enjoy all the pictures.

It is hard for us to believe that our little man is already a year old. He is such a blessing in our lives, and we love having him in our family. We love you Dallin!!!

Dallin's Hair

We have been wanting to get Dallin's hair cut for awhile now because it was just getting out of control. I took some pictures at bath time before we cut it so you could see how long it was, and he was being very smiley for the camera that day. The second picture is my favorite with his crazy hair!!

Here is a fun video Scott recorded while I was playing with Dallin's hair in the bath.

Dallin was perfect while getting his hair cut. He just sat in the chair and played with the water bottle. Candace said he was the easiest hair cut she had ever cut on a baby that age.

I think he looks so grown up now and he still has his curls on top. Here is what it looks like now.

Our Garden

We planted a smaller garden this year. We planted tomatoes, zucchini and our strawberries from last year have doubled in size. I can't go a summer without zucchini. It's my favorite and its easy to grow.

Scott picks a bowl full of strawberries every couple of days. It's not a lot but its enough for us.

I also made some super yummy zucchini bread. Thanks Mom and Tonya for the recipe.

Labor Day Camping Trip

We went camping again this past weekend for the holiday weekend with family that came up from Utah. We had a great time fishing and playing games. Dallin really loved being inside the tent and bouncing on the air mattress. We camped right on the river and our tent was literally just a few feet away from the water. It was a fun way to spend time before Scott starts his last semester this week.

First Video Post

I thought I would let everyone know we are still doing great just not a whole lot to say. The summer is winding down and school will be starting for Scott soon. He has been working A LOT during his school break so we only see him in the evenings just before Dallin's bedtime. We try and do something fun on the weekends.

Dallin has two top teeth now, and has been sick for the last couple of days on top of teething. I hope the worst is behind us now. I have to say Scott has been super Daddy at night helping with Dallin so I can sleep. Our ltttle man will be turning one this month, and I am super excited to plan his birthday party!

Dallin loves the park and has a new love of swinging. Hope you enjoy this video!
