Festival of Trees!

On November 12, Dakota & I went to the wonderful Festival of Trees with Mary Jo! Oh what neat & creative Christmas trees we saw. Here are a few pics of some of D & my favorites!

Just for the record, Dakota loved sitting in the chair & it was the only tree with a chair; otherwise, I am sure he would have preferred a blue or green tree & chair, LOL!

This was Dakota's favorite tree, hands down. He kept saying, "Duck, quack quack"! We had to stop by this tree mulitple times before leaving!

Halloween

This year, our Dakota was "Woody" from Toy Story and boy was he adorable!!!

We visited a few friends and trick or treated on just our street, as it was freezing cold, but wow, did Dakota have fun! By the end he couldn't wait for those doors to open so he could reach into those bowls and grab a prize!!! Woo-hoo, good fun was had for sure!

Pumpkin Patch (10-5-10)

Last Tuesday Dakota & I had some big time fun with Aunt Emily, at the Pumpkin Patch!!! Dakota is 32&1/2 inches tall this Fall! Check it out!

Happy Fall Everyone!!!

Baking

Yesterday (9/26/10), Dakota was thinking about doing a little baking! And what fun he had going through the different spices and playing with the Baking Powder! LOL, good times!! I LOVE the last picture the best!

15 Months Old - 9/10/10

Here is Dakota on the day he turned 15 amazing months old! He LOVES playing the piano! Sometimes he also uses his feet and sometimes he sits on the keys, which is super funny!!!

Dakota playing with Lauren and Daniel, his neighbor friends. He has so much fun with them, especially Daniel!

Daddy helping Dakota on Daniel's bike! Dakota was SO happy and proud to be riding that big boy bike!

Dakota is currently really into Giving 5, giving hugs & kisses, drawing with chalk, is just learning to blow kisses (so precious!), and just got his 3rd tooth in yesterday (9/9/10)!

Aunt Emmy and I took Dakota to the Spray Park for the 1st time on 7/23/10! At first he wasn't sure about all the spraying water. He watched for a bit and then decided to try it out, then he was hooked! He LOVES Spray Park! We all had lots of fun!

YVES

On July 24, Yves visited from Chicago and got to meet Dakota! He was super sleepy due to the vaccinations he received earlier that week, but they still had fun getting to know each other. We all enjoyed catching up with our dear friend! Thank you for the wonderful visit Yves!
