Dallin loves to play with swords, pirates, superheroes, dinosaurs, all the typical boy stuff. He even likes to tease his sister, but he has a soft side to him. He is very caring and loving. He dreams about the day when he will be a dad. One time he told me, "I wonder what I'm going to name my kids and what my kids friends names will be?" He has the funniest thoughts. I like to encourage him to play with boy toys because Justin would rather him not play with dolls and things like that. Dallin has superhero toys and dinosaur toys. But, his favorite thing to do with them is to give them a bath and then wrap them up in a blanket and put them to sleep. He has loved doing this since he was a little baby. It makes me smile because this is what he likes to do and I love watching him take care of things and be so kind and gentle. He usually is very nice to his sister as well. He loves to copy us in the things we tell her. So, he will say Elise say "----", sometimes he tries to get her to say words that we don't want her to say. Dallin also loves to be the first one in Elise's room when she wakes up from her nap. He will say "How's my Lalla girl"(Elise calls him Lalla). Also, when we go to the doctor's office for her check ups the doctor will ask if Elise is doing this or that and Dallin will answer all of the doctor's questions as if he were her Dad. Anyway these are the things that Dallin does that make me smile every day. Here is a picture of his Spider-man all wrapped up in a blanket.

When we were there, I noticed how tender hearted Dallin is. Elise is a lucky little girl to have such an awesome big brother! Your kids are too cute!
