Is the day
Daws was born 6 years ago! Sometimes it seems like I have been a mom forever and other days I still feel like I am just a kid myself!
Well, since his birthday was on Sunday, we had his "birthday party" the day before (which i will post some pics later). Now I am going to post some pics from today, his actual birthday!
If you are wondering why there are no pictures of him opening his presents it is because he got up at 4am to open them! I was so out of it when he came to my room to ask me if he could open his presents now I told him "just a second, i will get up and come out in a bit." Well, when I looked over and saw the clock I realized that it was 4:08 I thought to myself YEAH RIGHT and rolled back over to go back to sleep. When he came back a few minutes later I told him "hey, it isn't morning yet so don't open your gifts yet" he said "
ummm mom I already did!"
geesh he is fast!
Anyways, he got his church clothes on and went back to bed..... then it took me almost 20 minutes to get him woken up to go to church! we were very late to say the least!
He has been wanting this remote control motorbike for awhile now and he finally got it. So you know he was out of the car door and in the drive way giving it a go!
We then packed up a little picnic and headed over to
Tauphus park and had ourselves a little picnic and some fun times. (
Cole insisted that
Mia ride with him)
And then of course Dawson needed a turn as well.
We ate lunch with Alvin and even shared our bread with him.
Mia and Lane had some quality time together why I ran around the playground snapping shots of the boys.
Not sure what is going on here... maybe just a little photo shoot.
Hello Hello Hello hello
Right back at ya!
Swinging little monkey
Two swinging little monkeys. Look at Cole's face... he wasn't too interested in making it across.
A little self portrait! I look like I am suffering from allergies!
Ready Set Go...
Dawson's butt hurt after this one!
We took the remote controls over to the baseball field
cuz we soon realized that the ENTIRE playground was BEGGING to try it and I wasn't too interested in having it break the first day of playing with it... call me selfish!
Lane gave it a go....
Daws had to beg it back!
Coley liked seeing how far away he could get his to go from him.
Daws is an awesome older brother! He is a pretty
sensitive little guy and notices other peoples feelings. He also likes to feel out the waters before he jumps in. He started Kindergarten this year and so far has just loved it. He loves to learn and he loves to please people. He also loves and insists on being the boss to his younger brother and most the time, Cole lets him. He is in that stage where you can't talk about something around him that you don't want him to hear
cuz he is ALWAYS listening! I also realized I can't spell out things anymore
cuz he sounds it out and figures it out! (even my swear words!)
He adores his baby sister and loves making her smile/giggle! He also loves sneaking up on me and scaring me...gives him such a thrill!
Anyways, we love having him in our family and are so proud of the little man he is becoming!
and I am sitting all by myself...
eating crackers..... (and wearing bows that are much to big, thanks mom!)
staying awake during all 3 hours of church....
getting too big for my swing....
and sometimes I am whiny....
William. Lincoln. Rook. Dawson. Karson. Braxton. Keegan. Cole
We kinda flew by the seat of our pants but ended up having a lot of fun! Lane had picked up all sorts of interesting things that ended up being some highlights! They did relay races with our Wiggle Cars. We did glow in the dark hiding seek. Kick ball. Pinata. Tied the balloons to ankles and tried to pop everyone but your own. had treats. punching balloons. more snacks. cupcakes. super fun gifts. lots of running around!
Daws LOVED all the gifts he got! Thanks so much for coming and for making it such a fun party dudes!

hmmmm. so my other little disc thing isn't cooperating so i am unable to get any more recent photo's off of it. these pics are from our other (older) card. as soon as my really smart husband comes home from work i am going to have him get on that and help me figure it out so you can see more pics of our little lady! (and our trip to nyc!)
