Lorax 'Stache

Cole also has a Dr Seuss party for school tomorrow. Ashley was kind enough to give us her Lorax mustache for the occasion. We all wanted to try it out:

Dax was the best Lorax look alike :)

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!

Our preschool friends had a little party today to celebrate Dr. Seuss's birthday

(Addy, Marlee, Iylie, Greg, Jacob, Ellie)

The kids did a fun worksheet...

A ball toss into the Cat's Hat...

 Made Cat in the Hat hats and Truffula trees from The Lorax...

And ate fishes (One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish), green eggs and ham (Green Eggs and Ham), apples (10 Apples Up On Top), and drank pink ink (Pink Yink Ink from the fish book).

Even Daxton got in on the action :)

We had a blast...even if the kids were disappointed that Dr. Seuss didn't show up to his own party :)

We have the best friends here and so much fun with them!!

My Loves

I was lucky enough to spend Valentine's Day with the kiddos I love the most!

For our romantic evening we invited our good friends the Pettits and the Pfeiffers over for a "romantic" dinner with 6 adults and 7 kids :) After everyone was gone and all the kids were in bed I finally got my alone time with the love of my life...I made cookies while Ben and Dax fell asleep on the couch :) It wasn't a super romantic day...it was even better. It was a day full of love and joy with my eternal family! And it ended perfectly with a scene that melts my heart:

Happy Valentines Day!!

6 months!!

My sweet baby boy is 6 months old!! I can't believe how fast he is growing!
At 6 months he is 18 lbs 11 oz (66th percentile) and 28 in (90th percentile)

Dax has the cutest personality! He is very playful and has a good sense of humor. It's super easy to get him to giggle...especially for Daddy and Cole :) 

Dax is rolling around and eating like a champ! He still LOVES to jump, which is good because he has a lot of energy!! He also is fascinated with his hands and feet...and for some reason the wall :)

He says Dada all the time...we are still working on mama :)

Everyone loves this little guy! He is constantly being hugged and squeezed...

No one can resist that cute face with those big blue eyes and chubby cheeks!!

I have had two different people tell me he is the cutest baby...and they both have babies :)

He's got it all: the looks and the personality!

I love my sweet, funny, chubby, adorable, giggly little guy!! I can't get enough of him!!

Daddy Daughter Tea Party

Ben and Ellie got some quality daddy daughter time tonight. Travis Tidwell organized a daddy-daughter tea party and they were invited! They got all dressed up, Daddy made a deliciously fancy dinner, we had a little photo shoot and then they were on their way!

They had a fun night making crafts, dancing and eating treats!

This Daddy sure loves his daughter!! And she has her daddy wrapped around her little finger :)

It melts my heart!!

Ellie's Mountain

Ellie decided to make herself some chocolate milk this morning...but ended up making a mountain of chocolate powder instead...that ended up being an exploding volcano:

I love my curious little girl! :)
