We had an amazing summer

We had so much fun this summer.  We crammed it with lots of fun activities.  And lots of at-home stuff.  And a little vacationing and a few birthdays.

Here we are at the zoo with the coolest face painting I've ever seen.
Leopard,  Elephant, peacock, polar bear, butterly.    

Dalton got his first haircut.  I just couldn't wait any longer.  We almost made it to his first birthday.  It looks lighter now that it's been cut.

My mom came and she was a super good sport when I suggest we cut apart
this feather bed to make 10 hugh down pillows.  The pillows are awesome.  There
were feathers everywhere!

Dalton's 1st birthday!

We celebrated Dalton's birthday Whittle-style. We had mac-n-cheese and banana muffins since bananas are his favorite food.  Dalton is the funniest little guy.  He has lots of tricks to do.  He changes it up all the time.  Right now when you say "trick" he sticks out his tongue.  We went to the dr. and he was in the 19lbs so in the 9th percentile.  He is my smallest baby.  And so funny and cute.  He's finally learning to walk.  At 14 months now.  And . . . sometimes we call him toothless.  Since he still has no pearly whites.
