Calon is 3!!!

Calon is 3!!! He is getting to be such a big boy, it is amazing! He is so funny and quirky and so compassionate. He couldn't choose one theme for his Birthday so he had an ElmoTransformerSpidermanThomasToyStory Birthday! Grammy, Dani and her kids came down to help celebrate and Papa made a surprise overnight visit too! We went to Chuck E. Cheese for a little party with a couple friends and had a fun time, with the place all to ourselves. It was a great time and Calon is a GREAT kid!

The Invitation: We had to postpone the Zoo trip due to really cold weather.

Baby Dax's First Photo Shoot

Our favorite.

We ordered this one, to be like the other boy's 6 month pictures. If you want any of the other poses let me know and we can reorder online.

Calon's Art

These are the first people Calon has drawn and he was so excited he could do it he drew our whole family!

Daxon's First Food

Daxon loves his walker, now that he figured out how to make it move, backwards.

Tank likes to chill by Dax.

The big boys are so excited for Daxon to try mush!

Not aware of what is coming :)

What is in my mouth and what am I suppose to do with it?

mmmmm, rice cereal!

Calon does NOT want to try a bite. Picture taken by Kes, who also refused a taste.

Daxon liked it.

More Christmases!

We had a fun, though busy, tour de Arizona- after Christmas trip. We got to spend good time with everyone and the boys loved having 3 extra Christmases.

CHRISTMAS

Gotta love cookies season! We made ginger snaps, lemon meringues, date pin wheels, chocolate yule logs, snowballs, peanut butter blossoms and sugar cookies this year.

Leaving out the cocoa and cookies for Santa, and the carrots for the reindeer:)

Oh Christmas tree. Oh, Christmas tree.

Santa came!

Dax enjoying his new bean bag from Grammy and Grumpa.

Good morning.

Unloading Santa's sack.

Oh Ya! A shark!!

Yay, a new walker!

What is this?

A TRAMP! (Set up by magic, apparently. We took no pics of the 2.5 hour set up process.)

Best gift ever!

Winter Adventures

Our first snow of the year came when Calon was napping a few days before Christmas. Kes couldn't wait 'til he woke up so he ventured out solo.

Back out again after Calon woke up. Those boys really thought Christmas was coming soon because it was snowing.

Needing a little warmer clothes once there was lots of snow on the ground.

Spiky hair day.

Waiting outside for the Christmas Parade, which I mistakenly ventured to alone, with just the 3 little boys. Not the greatest adventure, for me, I had no idea where to park, stepped in cactus, had to carry Cal & Dax, got blasted by chilly wind, and all for an overall lack luster parade. At least the kids liked it :)

A day at the aquarium, followed by the zoo, where we took no pictures for some reason:(

Keston's first school program.

Calon, the audience.

Keston was a knight in the Castle Play.

His lines, "I am a powerful knights. My powers are water, fire and ice." He was awesome!

I will try to upload a video clip later.
