First Horse "Ride"

Dawson has a big stuffed horse that one of Scott's friends gave to him right after he was born. A few days ago he decided he was finally ready to get up on the horse and "ride" him, so that's just what he did. He absolutely loved it.
I think Zeus was a little jealous that Dawson didn't want to ride him but I'm sure we won't have to wait too long until he decides to give that a try too.

The Mohawk

I decided I wanted to see how Dawson looked with a mohawk so I asked Chuck if he would give him one this past weekend. He was kind enough to oblige even though Dawson fought and cried the entire time because he was scared of the noise the clippers made. I think it turned out really cute, even though I wouldn't want him to have this hairstyle when he gets older. Since he's still so young this is probably the only time he'll be able to get away with it without the parents in the neighborhood telling their kids to stay away from "that Parker kid with the crazy hair".

Hangin' With Daddy

Dawson loves to have his daddy hold him when he's sitting in our recliner. After his nap on Sunday, Dawson climbed onto Scott's lap and watched football games with him. While he was sitting there he started saying "dada" over and over again, which is his second favorite word next to "mama", of course.

He also tried to bite Scott's nose and slimed his face with slobber after eating a mini package of M&M's, which didn't faze Scott at all. I love watching the two of them together.

Halloween Fun

Dawson was a ninja for Halloween this year since Scott thinks all of the cute animal costumes for kids are lame. He wanted Dawson to be something "tough" and since I couldn't find a football costume he ended up as a ninja. We took Dawson and Ander trick-or-treating for the first time last night and the boys had a lot of fun together although we had to hold Dawson's hand and lead him from house-to-house, otherwise he would have just kept running down our street. Happy Halloween!
