Dax is NINE...

Well, well, well what do we have here?
Daximus turned NINE on us.  I guess I'll have to purchase the freeze ray gun after all.
It's the only answer.
Our May Day boy got his long awaited "mountain bike" and Daddy-o went all out.  I think Dax was in a happy catatonic state when he saw his birthday spoils.
Please note the new bike helmet.  BAM.  Safety, kids.
And like a good sport our little dude played along and posed with his birthday sign early that morning before school.  Man he has a great smile.
The brother's all gave him thoughtful gifts with morning hugs which is my favorite thing in the universe.
And right after school we swooped up lucky number seven and headed to the ball field.
 Where he had great hits and epic fielding and got a big fat DUB on his birthday.
Nothin' better.
Except for maybe an over frosted cake.  Mmmmmmmm
Everybody sang to May Day's best birthday boy and then we dug in.
Here are nine things we love about Dax Man.
 1.  He is wicked smart and cerebral 
2.  He is super athletic 
3.  He is friendly and kind 
4.  He is thoughtful and notices everything and everyone around him 
5.  He has a stubborn streak that makes an appearance infrequently - that's from his papa :)
6.  He is a voracious reader
7.  He is driven but likes to set and achieve goals on his own terms
8.  He loves rice with soy sauce but he would eat fries and cheeseburger daily
9.  He is super artistic

Happy Ninth Birthday to one cool cat.  We love you, bud and can't wait to see what you do with your wild and precious life.  It's gonna be epic.
