Halloween Pictures that I couldn't resist

Alright I know that I am really late on this one, but how could I not share this cuteness?!?  Dawson and his cousin, Rockwell, were playing around after the pumpkin carving was done.  Dawson was a good sport, but was somewhat embarrassed at how big I had to cut his leg holes.

I have to say the look on his face says it all.  "Mommy, you always clean my butt when it feels like this..."

Pictures with Santa take two!

We had pictures with Santa, but I just really wanted the tradition of going to see Santa at his remote location in South Towne Mall.  Dawson loves Santa.  He just wants to look at him instead of the camera.  The pictures turned out so darling!  I just love that kid!

A Horseback Riding Lesson

I know that this was a long time ago, but how can pictures this cute not be posted?  My brother, Coy, has horses and so we took Dawson riding when he was six months old.  He did great!  I think his mother may have been a whole lot more nervous than Dawson was.  He had a great time cruising up Rose Canyon on the mountain trail that Coy loves so much.  We rode for about two hours before Dawson was done!  He was absolutely amazing and made it so that Uncle Coy said he could be his new ridin' buddy!  Man I sure love that kid!!!

New Puppies

So we recently had new puppies!  Emmy went into labor two days early while we were at my school Christmas production.  We don'y know how long she was in labor as the puppy was breech and stuck when we got home.  I frantically called my mother yo come help!  We delivered 4 healthy puppies by sometime that next morning (I couldn't say when as I went to bed around 1 am).

Sunday we ended up with Emmy in the pet emergency room!  Because the puppies were so healthy, they essentially sucked all her calcium dry.  Emmy was seizing and twitching uncontrollably when we got home from church.  The made her stay all night hooked up to monitors and iv's.

Which meant we got to feed the pups! It sounds more fun than it was.  We were up every two hour feeding and it took about thirty minutes to finish one session.  

The puppies are doing great now and boy are they cute!

Santa Baby!

Dawson with Santa and Mrs. Claus!  He loves them!

Okay!  I just can't get over this cute baby!

So you may or may not know that I was in charge of the Christmas program at my school.  We won't talk about that, but we will talk about the pictures with Santa and Mrs. Claus that were available at the event.  My baby was the absolute hit of the night!
