Lot's Of Updates

It has been awhile since I last blogged. I thought I would really get into it, and be consistant with it, but so far that hasnt been the case!
Dawson had PE tubes put in his ears about 3 weeks ago. After having about 10 ear infections within the first year of his life, we decided that this was the best thing to do. The surgery went well, and he was back to his normal, wild self within an hour of the surgery! Hopefully, this will eliminate his ear infections. I felt so bad for him, the little bugger kept an ear infection!
He is growing so very fast, and learning so much. Just within the last month, he has started enjoying books. He loves for you to read to him, and when it is time for him to go to bed, he gets a book and runs to the rocking chair in his room! He loves to sit in your lap and be rocked while you read to him. It has become our little ritual, and it is my most favorite part of the day! I know that sooner rather than later he won't want to sit in my lap so I am loving it while I can! Dawson's vocabulary has really started to flourish, and he will repeat most anything you ask him to! He said "bye mommy" yesterday as I was leaving for work, and I thought my heart was going to melt! He loves giving big hugs and sweet kisses too!
His new obsession is The Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and The Wiggles, neither of which thrill me, however he LOVES them! We try to limit how long he watches tv, but it is nice to be able to turn one of these shows on and have him entertained so I can do laundry or pick up the house. He loves to "sing" and dance to the music.
I am very thankful that God chose me to be this precious little boy's mommy! I don't know how I ever made it without him, he has been such a wonderful blessing and sweet addition to our lives!
