He's lovin' proving his mother Wrong!!

At the beginning of the school year our good friends the Ferris's gave Dash this older trumpet, yes gave it too him because last year at the end of the year decided (without my concent) to sign up for band. Well I wanted him to take Spanish, (mainly because I didn't want to deal with him being loud and practicing ect., ect., ) So he began to practice and it was....Well lets just say he was unexperienced at playing it. But after a month of practicing at school and his teacher teaching him and he didn't have a book(one more thing I didn't want to have to buy, after all was he going to be that good?) he came home to practice and to show me how he could play. Well, needless to say he proved his mother Wrong, totally wrong because he's GOOD, really GOOD! I called his teacher to ask for the correct books name(because I drove clear across town to get the Wrong one) and she was raving about Dash and saying how well he's doing, if only he had the correct book he would be doing "Smashingly," (She just had to jab that one in there). Well, I am so happy that you proved your mother wrong!;)

Mess maker, Mess maker, Make me a mess!!!

I was bummed to find my favorite mix (Candy corn and Peanuts) all over my pantry floor! Oh well, atleast he's cute right?

Sloane Demonstrates, how to cut an onion....

This is his version on how to cut an onion...First find the nearest swim goggles and apply them to your face, like so. Next start cutting the onion and viola you have a tears free cut onion!! We were all laughing when he decided to make salsa in between sessions of Conference and he didn't want his eyes to burn. He just got back from swimming and he thought that his goggles could do the trick and it did, such a creative mind!;)

All his hard work pays off...

He and his dad have been working hard at his badges and rank advancements. Sloane even went to scout camp for a whole week to help him earn as many badges as he could and tonight it all payed off at the Court of Honor when he was awarded with the most badges, Fourteen!! He was so excited and tells us a lot how he can't wait to earn his Eagle award. We are so happy for you our wonderful Dash boy!

He's a planner!

Every night this cute boy lays out his clothes for the next day. He's mister organized and it cracks me up when I go into his room and find this laying on the floor with his socks included!

My Happy Helper...

I got so much done because of this lovely lady;) My good friend Laticia came over and offered her time and talents to my project.....Shhhh it's for Christmas! I love making gifts every year for the kids. Thank you so much,  you saved me a lot of time and it was fun chatting the afternoon away!

Cute face!

This cute face melts our hearts! He is getting close to WALKING!! He's going to be one of those small midget boys that are walking around and you think to your self that he's too small to be walking! He was practicing today going back and forth between the couch and ottomen and he got so excited for himself, it was too cute! He's only 9 1/2 months old!
