We made french toast the other day. It was delicious and Dawson ate up every bite of his plus the strawberries on my plate!



I discovered these delicious Hello Panda chocolate candy things at Target. Oh how they remind me of my childhood in Hawaii..





On another note, I'm getting into reading again..



Well, I want to find time to, anyway. But between Dawson and school and finding a job soon, I don't think I'll be able to. But I'll remain hopeful.



And that would be Dawson in his Elmo shoebies!

We took Dawson to the park today and he was so excited! He kept pointing at the ducks and the waterfall saying "Ooooh! Look!" He loves whenever we go out and he gets to go exploring. Little adventures with Dawson are the best. Afterward, I treated him to some frozen yogurt at U-Swirl.





















And now for the frozen yogurt!

I don't quite want to call this his first official haircut, because I want to save that for the mohawk he's getting in a couple months when he learns to sit still, which I originally attempted but failed when he couldn't stay put. So, a trim had to suffice and it turned out quite nice. Ooh I rhymed. :)

Outtakes:

Today we celebrated my mom's birthday by going to the M resort's buffet. Let me just say, it was the BEST buffet I've been to. It was GIGANTIC! I wish I had taken a lot more pictures, the pictures that I did take aren't too great of quality because the lighting sucked! I really really wish I wasn't so concerned that people would think I was some weirdo tourist, hah! Their dessert bar was incredible.. sooo many things to choose from, and their ice cream/sorbet collection was unbelievable!







Dawson was so excited!



And after the buffet..



He knocked out!



And now, US! I haven't taken out my tripod to shoot us in a while!







And now, me & my lonnnng hair:

Band-aids! He fell and bumped his head on something, which resulted in a tiny gash above his eyebrow. At first, I only had Hello Kitty band-aids. But shortly afterward, we made a quick trip to the store to pick up his own little band-aids, which he chose all by himself!

.. as I take pictures of him sleeping..

"Homemade" Jamba Juice Smoothies! I made one yesterday and Dawson begged to try it, so I let him have some while I checked my Facebook. Next thing I know, I look over and he's got the biggest smile on his face and an empty cup in his hands. He said "num nums" as he got up and walked away. He drank all my smoothie, so I made another one today.









Then I added a straw for Dawson to sip from..


Speaking of Dawson, he's napping.

The time has come for us to pack up and put away his beloved Jumperoni, saving it for future babies in the family. As I took it apart, he climbed back inside and played with it for one last time. It was a pain to fit into the box, but I made it work.





As he waved goodbye to his first big toy, I waved goodbye to my little chubby baby. He's getting soo big.




Now, a look at him when we first got it May 2010:





And here he is, taking a nap as I cleaned today..


On an completely irrelevant note.. I love almonds!
