Happy Father's Day, Christopher!!


Dawson and I are so lucky to have a great father/husband in our lives and I know baby girl Emerson will feel the same way. Dawson is always so excited when Christopher is home and wants to play with him non-stop. Here is a list of why Christopher is such a great Dad:

1. Sits and plays cars for as long as Dawson wants.
2. Gives out lots of piggy back rides, wrestles, and chases Dawson..some of his favorite games.
3. No matter what Christopher is doing; be it mowing the lawn, putting away dishes, or feeding the pets; he is patient and always lets Dawson help him when Dawson asks to help even if it takes twice as long.
4. He catches lots of potato bugs for Dawson.
5. Always has us read our scriptures and say family prayers.
6. Teaches Dawson about being respectful to people, especially women, and most importantly Mom.
7. Is willing to work hard for our family so I can stay home with Dawson.
8. Teaches Dawson about the Gospel and Jesus and the Temple.
9. He is a very hands on Dad and from day one willing helped with diaper changing, baths, feeding, etc.
10. Makes Dawson laugh and will be silly with him.

Dawson completely admires his Dad and loves him to pieces...we are so grateful for him in our lives!

I think Chris is one of the BEST dads that I know. I love how him and Dawson are Best Friends and he is always doing stuff with him! I'm sure baby Emerson will love him just as much!

You are about to have your baby girl and I want to wish you the very best. We will miss you this next year but will be able to look at your blog and see how things are going.
