To start, we celebrated Dawson's birthday one saturday. So many people came! Thank you to everyone who came and all of the fun presents! It was so much fun! I of course decorated his cake...you might could tell. :) It was my first one, and so I figure the worst can be when he won't remember right? Let's hope it gets better. Grandma and Grandpa Stevens gave Dawson a Cars car to scoot around on and walk with. He went nuts over it! He didn't want to get off at all! It was so cute!
Carson was such a good cousin to push Dawson around!
And here's the cake... it's a boot with a cowboy hat on top if you can't tell
Next.. i go on a walk with Dawson every morning.. we came home one day and he crawled into the bottom space compartment! It was hilarious!
The monday after Dawson's birthday party, he decided he was going to walk! He just walks everywhere now! And my house somehow stays messy :) I love seeing him walk. He is so happy and you can see he feels like he can conquer the world now.
J.D. left on the Shelley Traditional Elk hunt this last weekend. He didn't get anything but had a blast! All of the shelley boys go, they eat like men, camp like men, joke like men and smell like men....lol! He came home so relaxed and happy.
In sunday before conference I wrote down in the role book that I needed a job...a girl behind me saw this and when she got the role book she wrote down my name and number. She called me telling me about a job where she works. Pick your own hours, all weekends and holidays off, and no customers. It's calle Itzy Bitzy and its designer shoe company. I pull orders and fill them, and stock shelves. I go at my own pace and J.D. watches Dawson while I go. It's perfect! I get all morning, and am home by 5 everyday. it's amazing how things work out.
Today we went to Dawson's 1 yr. check up..little late on the calendar but oh well. He is in the 6 percentile for weight, 70 percentile for height, and 60 percentile for head circumference. .. Needless to say he isn't gaining weight. He just stays the same or looses..which keeps putting him in lower percentiles. He's never gone up he jsut keeps going down...There's some things we have to try and push for.. we go back in 2 months and we'll see wehre we are at. I think he's perfectly fine and healthy. In my gut i have no worries. Dawson is just fine :) He's the happiest baby.
Other than that, life is great!
