Animal Report

In May Dexton had to do an animal report for kindergarten.  He was assigned the platypus for his report.  He had to find out some facts about his animal and make a diorama. He made his platypus out of clay and decorated a shoe box to look like it's environment.  It turned out darling.

Dexton's Sixth Birthday

Dexton turned six this year!  The kids get to have a friend Birthday Party on the even years so he was very excited!  He wanted to have his party at Boondocks.  He invited his cousins Jennaca and Ashlyn and some boys from the ward.  The kids had pizza and cake and played arcades and in the jungle gym area.  They had a great time.  Dexton's big birthday gift was a  DSI XL!  He also got a new baseball bat and a Razor scooter that sparks when you hit the break. Dexton is growing up so fast I can hardly believe my little boy is six!  He is so much fun and says the funniest things!  He is wise beyond his years.  He remembers things like his Dad so I have to be very careful what I put into that brain of his!  He loves Dinosaurs and knows everything about them.  He is also very curious about science.  This year in Kindergarten he learned about germs and I wish he would have stayed home that day because now hand sanitizer is his best friend and he washes his hands a ridiculous amount! The biggest problem with his cleanliness is that his hands are becoming dry and cracked from all the washing!  And being that he hates lotion I have no choice but to tell him no more hand sanitizer!  Kevin keeps telling him he is going to be a plastic surgeon because he likes washing his hands so much!  He responds and says he is going to be a scientist and Kevin tells him that a doctor is a scientist. He is defiantly smart enough to be a doctor that's for sure!  I love him so much and I am so proud of him!  He is such a good heart-ed boy.   I tell Oci all the time that she doesn't know how good she has it, because she has the best big brother any one could ever ask for!  
Happy Sixth Birthday Dexton!
