long days, short years.

I can not believe that today Dixon is two years old. Is this what {Missy} meant when she, in her infinite mommy wisdom, said, "Long days and short years." I will spare you all the mushy mommy cliches, but truly these have been the best two years, I can remember. Dixon has brought so many smiles to our faces and filled our home with laughter each day. He continues to amaze us each day with his go getter attitude and vivacious personality.

Don't let all of that spunk fool you. Dixon can curl up and watch a movie with the best of them. His shows of choice are currently Wow Wow Wubbzy, Cars, Wonder Pets, and Yo Gabba Gabba. He also LOVES books. Along with his all time favorite Goodnight Moon, Dixon also often pics Eric Carle classics such as, The Very Busy Spider, Brown Bear Brown Bear, and The Very Hungry Caterpillar.

As much as Dixon loves to read, he REALLY loves the great outdoors. You will often hear him screaming down the block when it is time to come inside. He can be found pushing his bubble mower up and down the block, playing in the backyard with the neighbor kids, shooting hoops, riding his 4 wheeler, tormenting Lady, exploring, ect, ect.

He is showing more and more love to his little brother as well. He will often be found trying to give him his paci, feeding him, and giving him knucks. I can already tell that they will be the best of buddies in no time at all. At two years old Dixon has taken on the role of big brother amazingly.
