the all american boy

alright here is one for my family. a picture of me!

so dominic past his all american boy test. i bought a cheeseburger on the way home from walmart the other day and when i got in the house i took one bite and set it on the corner of the table so i could put away groceries. a few seconds later i came to get another bit and . . . no cheeseburger but there was a wrapper to a cheeseburger on the floor so i go around the corner to the living room and i find this cute boy munchin down on MY cheeseburger. that stinker!













the other man


i never mention him so i thought i would give a shout out to my baby's daddy. he is at school monday thru thursday at night for three hours so we haven't seen much of him lately. dominic and i both miss him tons and are looking forward to thanksgiving so we can spend a week and a half with him and my family in washington. can't wait!

beautiful days at the park











the weather this week has been so awsome. dominic and i have enjoyed alot of time at the park and just outside it's been so sunny but yet cool. we have had the windows open all day and night and are just taking in the fresh air. love it!

some fun in the sun

so we finally had a cool front come in and the weather is beautiful it was a sunny 75 degrees yesterday and boy did we enjoy it as you can tell from this first picture, we sure were ready to get out of the 90's. i took the boy outside three times it was so much fun and dominic just loves it. he cries everytime i make him come inside.
this boy loves to run all the time! everywhere!


i brought out the toys dom got for his birthday so the boys could push them around. i was hoping if i had something to distract dom with he would stay in the drive way instead of trying to run down the street.


dominic decided to do some off roading with his dump truck. it was alot harder to push on the grass as you can tell from the picture below.





update on fat cheeks

it's so much fun to watch these two interact with each other. exspecially now that their personalities are starting to show more. they have so much fun together and it really sounds like they are having conversations with each other. they also got in their first fight this week it was so funny because i was the one they were mad at but they took it out on each other. i had closed a drawer in the kitchen they were getting into and kaden got really angry and hit dominic right in the face well dominic wasn't to happy either so in retaliation he planted both hands on kaden's chest (it takes alot to move that kid) and pushed him so he fell back on his bum.
poor kaden spends his whole day trying to catch up with dominic


kaden in all his glory


i think he is pretending to sleep so i don't make him do anything

party at the beach
















a birthday party at the beach

this was dom's face when we first put him in it was kind of chilly for the first few minutes so he wasn't sure if he liked it or not but after that he was crawling and splashing all over the beach.


dominic getting use to the new terrain.



dominic and kendall having some fun. kendall was fun to watch because he was completely fearless he kept trying to crawl out to sea a wave would come crashing in and he wouldn't even slow down his mom had to keep saving him because he would just keep chasing after the water.

my little boy turned one!

this is the toy dominic picked out for himself. he pushed it all over the toy store and when i took it away so that we could purchase it he cried. jacob says that how we know we got the right toy.


jacob showing dominic the ropes on how to unrap his present.

my mom got dominic this tie. i love it. my little boy almost looks like a little man.

making waffles




i have a new helper in the kitchen and a pretty cute one. with how sad dominic has been while getting this newest tooth i couldn't listen to him cry on the floor anymore so i decided to see if he would like making waffles and it turns out he is pretty good at mixing the ingredients up for me. i'll keep practicing with him mom and by the time we get there for thanksgiving he'll be grandma's little helper in the kitchen.

walking in shoes

video

dominic's getting one of his top teeth so excuse all the little fits he throws although i think there pretty funny. anyways i have been trying to get dominic to wear shoes because everywhere we go he wants to get down and walk. we were at best buy the other night and he was walking around the whole store in bare feet so i have been putting shoes on him for a little while each day but he HATES them he kicks his feet and screams and then once he calms down he will just sit there and try to pull them off. so i went to my book about babies and it told me to only use shoes with soft soles when they are first learning to walk so i went and bought him a pair and he doesn't seem to mind them at all he looks a little funny walking in them because he lifts his feet up higher when he takes steps like he's got big boots on.
