It's been a rough weekend at our house! To start it off, Mason decided to do a forward flip out of his pumkin seat, landing on his forehead on our tile floor...he was a little shaken up but seemed ok after a few minutes! Now he's showing off his 1st ever bruise :( The next day...Jaiden went full-speed running face first into a door frame. Apparently, she misjudged the opening in the door and smacked right into the side of it. As a result, she bruised her nose and chin and busted open her lip. Her mouth gushed blood for several minutes and she was very traumatized!! We are hoping next weekend goes a little better...

Annabelle and Cricket!! Annabelle loves playing with you...she steals your toys any chance she gets, and loves playing tug of war. She is wild and crazy, but fiercely protective of you! Cricket would sit on a blanket beside you all day long if she could. She lays under your highchair begging for any bit of food she can get! Cricket is our calm dog, but she is very aware of everything that happens in the house. Hopefully, these dogs will be with us for many years, and be with you while you grow up :)

Playing in your bedroom with Mommy! We are staying inside today....we have 5 inches of snow on the ground! This bookshelf was made by your Great Great Grandpa Mitch. It has been passed down many times and has been in several of your cousins bedrooms, and was also in your Mommy's room! The stuffed animals on this bookshelf were Mommy's when she was a little girl and now you love playing with them :)

Today was Mason's 6 month photoshoot! This picture was taken by Jaiden, age 4! Once the photographer began taking pictures, she jumped up to immediately grab my camera. She took around 20 pictures and most of them were actually really good...she may have found her calling! In my opinion, my son is very photogenic...he smiles whenever the camera is around, which is good because I tend to take his picture daily!! I think the shoot went really well...even though the day ended with Mason pooping and peeing on the photographer's props :) Can't wait to see the pictures!
