Updates

Dallin is 6, loving kindergarten, and as you can tell Star Wars. He has grown so much this year, mostly socially. He raises his hand in class and makes comments (big step for him), and you will even see him talking to strangers in the grocery store and park. He loves playing outside with all the neighborhood kids and is looking forward to learning to ride a bike with no training wheels this spring! He is also looking forward to soccer, baseball, and swimming this summer. He was very dissapointed that he is not getting a sister this time, but is starting to get used to the idea of another brother and is excited to meet him. He wants to name him Sam, and I have to keep reminding him he has a cousin Sam.



Things he ponders about:

1. "But mom, how did the baby get inside your tummy?" and "How is the doctor going to get it out?"

2. "if you were to burn in a fire for 100 days, you be black like Darth Vader"



If you were to ask him what he is good at he would say:

1. running fast

2. reading

3. taking care of dogs and bugs. No, we don't have a dog, yes we do have many bugs.

We have recently discovered via an online test that Dallin is colorblind. We've suspected it for a while and sure enough he is. Please don't mention it to him though, he is in denial right now, and not too happy about it. Poor kid.



He is asleep right now, awaiting the tooth fairy for his 2nd lost tooth. The first one was about a week ago.



Updates on the other kids will be coming soon!
