Dawson is 2!

Fell off the blogging wagon, probably because we are having such a busy and fun summer. Main thing I didn't post, my sweet baby turned 2! I cannot adequately express how much joy my children have brought to us, and this sweet little guy just piles it on every day. Dawson is such a smiley little guy, who loves almost everything and everyone. He can be a bit feisty too when he feels strongly about something. Busy doesn't do justice to tell how active he is- he keeps me on my toes to say the least. Fortunately, his big brother helps me keep up with him too and they are so sweet together...most of the time. But as active as he is, he is equally as charming. It is so true what Lee Camp said during his sermon Sunday(paraphrased)...when you have your first child, you are overwhelmed with love for that child, that when you are preparing for the second child, you wonder how you could possibly ever love that much again...then we realize the capacity of love that God has given us and how he can love each of us passionately and personally. Dawson has taught me this exponentially!

We decided to have a family birthday outing to Bob the Builder Live at TPAC-when you have 4 boys, what more could you want? They had as much fun at our house ahead of time playing, but they did enjoy the show a great deal...and honestly they did better than I expected at staying engaged in the program:). The next night we had our group from church over (our regular turn), and called it a birthday celebration. Such great family and friends! Here are a few pics of my baby and his parties:)
