updated pics of Dax

Dax has officially learned to pull himself up on EVERYTHING! There is not a dull moment in our house anymore...well, maybe when he is sleeping, but I like to think of that more as restful instead of dull:)

Dax is very strong! We figured out that he could hang on the stove (when its not on) all by himself. He may be the strongest baby alive

Dax and mommy on a walk...of course, daddy was there too. Who else would be taking the picture?

Daddy gave Dax his first haircut at 8 months...now at 9 months we need to give him another one...and soon!

another pic of Dax and mommy...with the sun in our eyes

Christmas with Aunt Kelly

My first VeggieTales DVD! All about Saint Nicholas

All my presents from Aunt Kelly...I can't believe there are even more coming from Nana and Papa and Gigi and Buddy!

I loved getting my first Elmo book...I laughed and laughed when I saw Elmo on the cover!

This was your first Christmas experience. Naturally, everything you got went straight into the mouth, and we had so much fun opening all the presents. Thank you, Aunt Kelly, for spoiling me so much!

Merry Christmas, buddy! We love you so much

First time swinging

This was your first time on a swing and you loved it! We were at Uncle D and Aunt Lissa's for Megan's 2nd birthday party. So much fun!

Dax rolling over

You rolled from your back to your belly for the first time at Nana and Papa's house when you were 5 months old.

Getting handprints

Mommy wanted to get your footprint and hand print for your baby book. It was no fun, but you were a trooper and now we have such a special memory!

This was your first bath in the hospital. You seemed to love having water on your head. Daddy loved being a part of this. Mommy was back in the room waiting for you to be brought to her.

Mommy and Dax

Dax, this was the first time I got to hold you! I waited for this moment my whole life and it was better than I ever dreamed it would be. I love you, Doodle. You are the most precious gift God has given us. You'll notice in this video that the minute the nurse wrapped you up you found a way to get your hand out of the swaddle. You always managed to do that and that's why we call you Houdini
