Crayon Rocks

I was a little worried about letting Dax do this craft, but it turned out great. We heated the rocks up in the oven, then drew on them with crayon's. The heat from the rock melted the wax and they turned out really cute. I just made sure Dax knew it was really hot, and helped make sure he didn't accidentally touch it.



We also set up our little pool yesterday. Dax and Ethan had a blast jumping in and out. I love living so close to friends!

Memorial Day

Today was a long eventful day. We started by visiting a graveyard in Ogden with Morgan's grandparents, then had lunch at a park. Dax was SO excited to play on all of the playground equipment. (It was an interesting part of town, so please ignore any graffiti you see). After that we came home for a much needed rest, then headed out again. We went up and swam in his grandparents pool. Dax was a pro. The second he saw the pool his eyes lit up and he was determined to get in. He even jumped off the side into Morgan's arms.(We got to test out our camera and got a neat photo of Daxton blowing bubbles underwater!) We finished up with a BBQ at the in-laws and finally home. Hopefully we'll get some more crafts going this week!

Sunday Ride

Today was a beautiful day. We couldn't waste it inside, so we decided to take Dax out for a bike ride. He was so relaxed ridding along in his little trailer. Afterwords we enjoyed a great dinner that my mother-in-law made, and took the boys on a walk. Dax and Merrick were excited to see a neighbor using a huge tractor in his yard. Then Grandpa took them for a ride on his motorcycle.

Carnival Fun

There was a small carnival in the mall parking lot for memorial day weekend. I took Dax over there today and met up with my two sister-in-law's and my nephew. He had fun for the most part. He has to be the biggest wimp ever. He didn't like any of the rides, but enjoyed catching 'ducks', and looking around at all of the people.

Nothin' Like a Cookie

The weather here has been crazy lately. It's snowing one day, sunny and in the high 60's the next, and then cloudy and humid the day after that. SO today we walked around the mall instead of the park and somehow Dax talked me into getting him a couple cookies. There's nothing better then a happy baby enjoying a cookie.

Splish Splash

My sister in-law invited us over today for some water fun. She just got a new blow up pool that is bigger then Dax's, so we decided to let the boys try it out. (how weird is it that it snowed yesterday, and is beautiful today?) Dax LOVED it! He is such a fish! He dove right in! I was pretty impressed with the things he was trying. He would just fall backwards until he was underwater, and laughed hysterically at the hose... What a nerd. ;0) Anyways, I snapped about a hundred pictures and two video's. (my finger made an appearance in front of the lens a few times)














Shawnee also showed me how to make no bake cookies! Morgan told me they are amazing, so I've been excited to try them. They were so easy to make and taste terrific!
