Snow Day, Part 2

Today was MASON'S FIRST SNOW!! Well, that he got to experience. It snowed some last year but he was just a baby. When Wayne got home from work, we bundled up and headed to the backyard. Mason was in awe as he stepped into the snow and was smiling from ear to ear. He stomped all over the yard, made and threw some snowballs, and helped daddy make a little snowman. I took sooooo many pictures! Then we went inside and had hot chocolate (Mason had warm milk) to get warmed up!

Mason's 2nd Haircut

We FINALLY got Mason's hair cut yesterday afternoon. I think it turned out really cute. He looks so much different now though. He did good--turned his head a lot until they started blowing bubbles for him.


AFTER:


Mason loves books and lately he's been getting them off his shelf, crawling up into the rocking chair and "reading" them. Too cute!

My Little (Acoustic) Rockstar

Mason loves Wayne's guitar and wants to play with it but knows it's a no-no. He calls it "dada." I guess that's because I say "no, that's dada's." He now calls anything that remotely looks like a guitar "dada". Whenever he sees a violin, cello, bass, sitar, banjo...well you get the picture...they are all "dada". So, I went on a quest to find him a play guitar and ended up with (I'll admit) one that's a little too nice for a toddler to bang around. It was pretty cheap though and he loves it. These pics were taken right after we surprised him with it. What a rockstar.

January Family Night

We had a busy weekend--
Last night was our monthly "Family Night." This month was held at my Grandma's house (we rotate) and we had a great dinner and dessert. Mason of course had fun playing with Chloe' and Cameron. And we all had fun playing with all the treasures you can find at a grandma's house--old stuff that's neat again! These pics aren't very good, but it's documented nonetheless...

The last few days...



"On the pot" (heehee) Mason started pulling pots & pans out of the cabinet to play with (oh well--I don't use them!!!)

And for those who were wondering...Mason has become one with the fringy ball afterall!
