Our Chico, California Trip.....

So we went to go see my family in California, we had so much fun! It was so HOT, it got up to 112degrees! So Dax's PaPa Evans went to the store & got him a little pool & him a standing water toy where you can play with boats in. Dax loved it! He also loved playing in the mud, he would be outside playing with his papa & I would walk out there & he would be covered in mud, it was pretty cute! When he was super muddy his Gramsy would just give him a outdoor bath, then he would crawl around outside naked :) For Dax's 10month birthday we went to this yummy restaurant, Dax had some pasta & bowl of vanilla ice cream. He only wanted to feed himself, so we just let him, it was a mess but that's what boys do, I am finally use to it by now. For Jake's birthday my parent's flew him in to California, which was so nice of them & so fun! I am so grateful they treat him like one of their own kids. Jake is 26 now WOW! We also took Dax on his 1st boat ride on the Chico River, he liked it but didn't like his life jacket so much :(
SO Before Jake left Indy to california, he packed up all our whole apt, & had a rep drive our car to Albuquerque NM, so for the rest of the summer here we are in New Mexico! I am pretty excited about this new scenery, & my good friend Candice lives right above me! Also it is beautiful here in my opinion & there is so much culture I love it.
*** FOUR new things! Dax is getting his 1st tooth (about time!), He got his 1st black eye yesterday (what a manly boy!), Dax can take 4-5 steps, & lastly after 10 months he is FINALLY SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT! You heard it we have not had sleep for 10 MONTHS!!! Can you believe we've gone that long without sleep? Only when we visit my mom or she visits us did we a break. FINALLY is all I can say!
