3 Year Old Dawson

All of a sudden our little man is 3!?! His photo shoot this year was brought to us by a piglet because I’m just not sure what else we could incorporate that would bring out his biggest smiles. This past year has been a big one for this small dude. He has become super independent and sneaks out of the house to the pig barns absolutely any chance he can get. “Little Ryan” we call him, though he does still resemble his Uncle Nicholas an awful lot, too. His daddy has to prop up a bucket full of rocks next to the back door just to keep him safe in the house on days when trucks and tractors are frequently in the driveway. His raspy little voice totally wins me over when he throws out new words from his ever-expanding vocabulary, and he has learned the art of talking and smiling with his eyes. He completely steals my heart every day.

We love you so much, Dawson Kevin! Now, please stay in the house. Happy 3rd birthday, big guy!
