Question.




Will I ever get tired of looking at photos like this one?



I hope not.

Have you met me?


If so, this post will not surprise you.

I am a co teacher in an English 10 classroom. The English teacher starts every day off with a joke for the kids. Yesterday she asked me to read the joke at the begining of class...
for 28 16 year olds...

The first line read "Why the U.S. trails other countries in math..."

I read "Why the U.S. trials other countries in math..."

I didn't stop there...

I said, "Is this the same one you read this morning? Was it about a trial?" It seemed like I said trial 847 times. Then it clicked, "OH... TRAILS!" The class roared with laughter and I ended up being the joke of the day...

Standard.

You be the judge...

From the very first time I saw Dixon I have thought that he looks just like his dad...
However now I can see a little of each of us...

Here is a picture of Adam at 9 months...


What do you think!?!?!

Double Trouble!




This is Dixon with his cousin Tristan (my step brother Chad's son). Tristan LOVES it that Dixon has "hair like me!" as he says it! Grandpa Don has BIG plans for these two next summer which include many trips down to the river and rides on the four wheeler! Dixon and Tristan are hoping that the plans also include the purchase of a pony...a strawberry blonde one, please! :)

Happy New Year!


Buddies ;)

We rang in the new year with our two favorite boys Dixon and Maxwell.
Max came to stay for an overnight, we went out to eat at Outback and we were home by 6:00 and all asleep by 9:00. Now that's my kind of night...Dixon woke me up at 1:00 to tell me Happy New Year and with a bottle went right back to sleep...The night was perfect!





It is so much fun to see Max play and interact with Dixon as Dixon gets older and is able to do more things. Max loves to help and to be called my helper! :) They even got matching Star Wars shirts today...per Max's request! ;)

Important information...
Dixon has gotten his lucky number 7th tooth! And will be 9 months old in 12 days! YIKES!
