Mason Man at it again!

July 21, 2011
We are remodeling our bathroom and Nick was letting Mason help. So Mason took Nick's leatherman and hid it. Nick and I both looked for it and we could not find it. Well the next night Nick heard Mason in the living room banging on the coffee table and came out to see what he was doing. He had Nick's leatherman and was making a nice hole in the table. That little weasel!! I still have no idea where he had hid it. He is such a boy:)

Camping

Camping in the South Hills with my parents and Scott.

4th of July

July 4, 2011

This year because I had to work we stayed in Inkom for the fourth of July. Taylor got lots of candy. Mason LOVED the hee hee's (horses). Nick had to hold him because he tried to run after them.

Logan Car Show

July 2, 2011

We took the kids down to Logan for the car show. They loved all of the cars. They are car fanatics just like Nick.

Taylor and her pink "Barbie" car she found.

We thought that Mason looked like Doc from Back to The Future with his crazy hair. Now if he was just old enough to drive.

Mason Man.

June 16, 2011

I cannot believe that my little man is 14 months old. He is just a joy in our lives. We sit and laugh at him all of the time. He is a VERY busy little boy. He gets into anything and everything thing. Mason loves to play with balls and cars. He will walk around the house with a car going vroommmm. Taylor is his best bud. She is the first thing he looks for when he wakes up in the morning. He can say mom, dada, papa, cheese, ball, and uh-oh.

Converstation with Taylor

Me: Mom and Mason are getting in the shower.

Tay: Why?

Me: Because I stink.

Tay: Did you poop?

Me: No, I just stink.

Isn't it funny how kids associtate things we say. She thinks that becasue everytime Mason has a poopy diaper I say "Mason Man you poopy boy you stink."

Tumbling Recital

May 14, 2011

Taylor took tumbling this year. Mya and her friend Shay were in her class. She has learned to do somersaults. She is working on cartwheels, back bends, and handstands. For their recital they did a cute routine to "Who Let the Dogs Out" She did her somersaults so fast I don't think that her head even touched the ground.

Dance Recital

May 14, 2011
This past year was Taylor's first year taking ballet and tap. Her dance teacher was a Jessica Malcom(a gal I work with). She loved going to dance. If she was still sleeping when it was time to get ready to leave I just had to say it was time to go to dance and she would jump out of bed. For their dance recital they did a Hawaiian dance to the song "He mele no lilo" for ballet and for tap they danced to the song "Wonderful World of Yes." She was so cute.







The whole group.

Las Vegas

May 7-8, 2011

We were able to spend a weekend in Vegas with Nick's sister Erica's family and brother Matt and his wife Rachel. It was fun to get away for a couple of days. We stayed in a condo away from all of the commotion of the strip. We left Mason with my parents. We did not think that he would like riding in a car for ten hours. I am sure his little wild self had way more fun with grandma and grandpa.

Nick went to Supercross.

Shark reef aquarium

We went to the shark reef aquarium. Taylor and Mya loved it. They were able to see sharks, fish and a sea turtle. They also got to touch the sting rays.

Hoover Dam

We drove out to see Hoover dam. It was neat to see but also VERY windy. You had to be careful or the wind would blow you away.

Swimming

May 6, 2011

Can I just say that Mason loves the water! He would get mad when it was time to get out of the pool. He loves to sit on the edge of the pool and jump in. That kid is being put in swimming lessons as soon as he is old enough. Do you like the tattoo on his arm?

Easter

April 24, 2011

Taylor Had fun and the Inkom Easter Egg Hunt. She got so many eggs that they did not all fit in her basket. We will have to make sure to take a bigger one next year.

They Easter bunny spoiled the kids. Taylor got a new bike and Mason got a new suit. Isn't he a handsome devil?

Mason's First birthday.

April 16, 2011

I cannot believe that Mason Man is already one year old. My how time flies! He is just a ham and we love laughing at him. He love to give hugs but is all boy. He empties my cupboards and throws anything and everything he can over the baby gate down the stairs. He is not only walking but running everywhere.

He has the biggest cheesy grin with SEVEN teeth!!

He weighs 21 lbs, which is only ten pounds lighter than Tay.

Mason Man also LOVES and I mean loves food. He will eat anything you are eating. Maybe that is why he is only ten pounds lighter than Tay.

Shots!

April 22, 2011
So yesterday both kids had check up and shots. This morning Taylor would not walk and wanted me to carry her. I told her she needed to walk and that it would make her legs feel better. Not wanting to walk she then asked for a wheelchair! Tay I asked what is a wheelchair? (Wanting to make sure she knew what she was asking for.) She proceeds to make the motion of pushing a wheelchair with her arms. Obviously she did know what she was asking for. One smart kid. I finally got her to walk. Later that night when I was getting her ready for bed she kept crying every time I touched her band aid. I asked her if I could take it off and she refused. Finally being fed up with her crying every time I touched it I held her down and ripped it off. She screamed bloody murder the whole time but as soon as it was off she said, "Oh momma thank you! Thank you! My ouchy is all gone! Thank you!" Kids!! What can you say:)
