What's Going On...

Here's a hodge-podge of what's been going on in our lives over the last week:

Since his first ride on "Chilo" on the carousel at the Promenade, Mason is now a seasoned pro! He's been on "Cherokee Blue" whom Mason called "Ketchup" (he was ketchup colored!)

and "Elvis" (Mommy rode with him this time & got a little green-I'm not a big fan of going round-and-round!) And yes, Mason needs a haircut.

He still loves to play with Playdoh. Here he is with a few creations that Wayne & I helped him make~

Mason has really been into building "towers" with his Mega Blocks. This is his "Tah Dah" look:

I got my hair cut on Friday~Here's BEFORE:

and AFTER:

When my mom, Mason & I were out & about on Friday afternoon, we stopped by Village on the Creeks to see if the flowers were in bloom yet down by the water. They weren't, but some lovely daffodils lined the area around the parking lot, so we stopped for an impromptu photo session (thus Mason's non-picture worthy outfit) I LOVE how they turned out! He just sat right down & posed.




The Chapel on the Creeks was open and I've always wanted to see the inside(I'm dying to go to a wedding there!) It was gorgeous to say the least. There is an amazing painting of the Last Supper in the Groom's Quarters! Anyway-back to the story~no photography was allowed inside the Chapel, but we walked around the side and found this beautiful 2-sided bench.


On Saturday, Wayne mowed for the first time this season, raked up leaves & sweet gum balls from our trees (ugg) and edged. Mason had to mow as well. Yesterday we purchased a new Bubble Mower at Wal-mart to replace the cheap-o $4 mower he's been using. He's been playing with it non-stop in the house (with out the bubbles of course!) and can't wait until it's warm enough to get back outside.

That's all for now!

My Afro Puffs

One night last week, I was just too tired to blow out my hair straight, so I ended up having to do something with the hideous Medusa hairdo I woke up with the next morning. Even Mason was scared of it, I kid you not. He said, "Mama hair?" in an uncertain voice and tried to fix it. He'll learn that Mama has crazy curly hair! Anyway, I had to go to the store to get diapers & milk so I ended up taming the fro with these little afro puffs in the form of low pigtails. (My hair is so short now, it won't go into a ponytail) Although they were kinda cute, I decided I'd better take a few pictures to remind me not to do that again!
