Week 15

Christmas is here! Ok well not really, but it is at our house. We decided that since we would be gone for Thanksgiving and then home for just a short while before going back to Oklahoma we should go ahead and put the Christmas stuff up so we can at least enjoy them for a little bit longer. Mason loved helping out and decorating the trees. He was so proud of his tree in the playroom and we even made a few decorations to put on it. Tyler thinks the lights are interesting to look at. She's been super snugly and lovie lately so I've just enjoyed holding her and letting her sleep. I know I'm probably going to create a horrible habit, but I also know that she won't be little forever so its worth the risk!

Week 14

The weather has been fantastic this week! The mosquitos are finally going away and we've been able to get outside and play. We went to the park several times this week and we had Mason's 3rd Birthday party this weekend. We couldn't get the party place during the month of December and this weekend worked the best this month, its a little early, but that just means we get to celebrate longer. The birthday party was so much fun and of coarse Mason was a wild child the whole time! At least its safe to say that he had a good time and thats what is really important. He's really into playing pretend and dress up these days. I bought him a pair of fireman rain boots and I swear he has not taken them off. We've worn them to the park, to the store, to school, his birthday party, we even slept in them the first night or two. He loves them and calls them his cowboys boots. He is one crazy kid thats for sure. If you would have told me three years ago that I would let him wear the outfits that he wears sometimes, I would have said no way. But I've definitely learned to pick my battles and the boots are not worth it to me.

I might need to reiterate the pick my battles part!

New Born Announcement

Lauren put together this beautiful birth announcement that I absolutely love! I just wish I would have been more put together and sent them out! Ha ha! Please pretend that you received this in the mail. I just love it.



Week 13

Happy Halloween! What a fun start off to week! Mason loved trick or treating this year. I swear him and Grant ran from house to house almost the whole time. After they were done going to houses, Mason sat out on the driveway with us and helped pass out candy. I'm pretty sure he liked doing that more then getting the candy. Well until I tried to pass out some of his candy and he wasn't going to let that happen. Ha ha! He also thought it was pretty cool that MeMe was dressed up as Mickey Mouse. I'm so mad I didn't get a picture of them! Tyler turned 3 months this week. She is all about the death grip. She has started grabbing on to the hanging toys on her gym and will not let go. Its funny because she will try once and miss and then get it the next time. That's when she holds on super tight. I can just imagine her thinking "If I let go, I might never get it back!" She's getting so big.
