Playdough

The other day I was trying to think of something different to entertain Dawson. We didn't want to spend money, and we had played every game you could possibly think of. So after much thinking, a playdough commercial came on the TV, and that's when we decided to try making our first playdough ever. We searched for the best recipes and found the perfect one. 

It was SUPER easy and it turned out to be the better type of play dough; the kind that doesn't dry out too fast and is super soft. We started out with 4 colors, but then Dawson decided to combine them all..... so we just have one color left. Dawson had a blast for about 20 minutes.


He used the cookie cutters to make all sorts of things and used toothpicks to build up with them. As much fun as it was, he has yet to play with it again.... He usually likes to play with stuff when J.D. or I play with him. So I guess when I'm interested again, he will be too. lol,

Some recent things Dawson has said....

I woke up one morning and I was doing my hair curly. Dawson came in and asked, "What are you doing?"
Me: " I'm doing my hair."
Dawson: "Why are you doing it like that. I don't like it."
Me: "Well I just woke up and started doing my hair so mom could look pretty today."
Dawson: "Mom, you are beautiful when you wake up."
Me: "You think mom is beautiful when I wake up and don't do my hair?"
Dawson: "Ya, every morning you are beautiful."

It melted my heart and completely made my whole day! I love this little guy so much and being sweet is such a genuine characteristic that he just has all the time. As he gets older he just gets sweeter.
