Our Year in Photos

Bathtime...not near as much fun inside! He's getting pretty good at brushing his teeth, just wish he would use his own :)

  Mammaw makes him happy!!

Cheerleader in the making!!

This is why I have no organized cabinets in the house...  I love his smile ;)

My baby...reminding me ALOT of his Daddy!

Looks like fall is here... I have mixed feelings about this. I love the trees changing color, chilly evenings wrapped up in warm blankets, and fall festivities - But I despise winter.

Our weekend down on the farm...Mason's 1st trip to Grandpa Ed's!! Elan and Mason...completely by accident that they are dressed the same!! Both fearless of 1,000 lb cows walking toward them. I, on the other hand, am scared to death of them, due in part to a certain bull named "Six Pack" that charged me as a child.  He either thought I had food or he wanted me as food...the family still disagrees as to which it was :) This guy will be in our freezer one year from now!!  Nothing better than meat raised by your grandfather...no hormones, no antibiotics, completely organic. Grandma's goats! Mason had his first taste of fresh goat milk this weekend and he LOVED it!! The boys on the donkey named Beau! His hand is in that horses mouth...she loved his gifts of alfalfa! The man responsible for this crazy family ;) Love him and his sweet smiles! The view!! Gorgeous! We had a wonderful, relaxing weekend away from our city life...

The men in my life... Mason is well into his second year of life and becoming more like a little boy every day! He gives slobbery, opened mouth kisses that melt my heart and he gives the BEST hugs ever. He has 12 very sharp teeth (I've learned from experience). He understands everything I tell him and follows my directions pretty well. He is becoming more and more like a little boy every day, and I'm starting to lose sight of the baby I once had. He doesn't walk...he runs...everywhere.  Yesterday, in 2 seconds flat, he made it from the garage door to our mailbox.  When I told him to turn it around, he laughed at me!!  If we're inside, he's normally trying to find a way to get to the stairs.  He crawls up them lightning fast with a huge silly grin on his face, squealing all the way. He loves to play baseball, soccer, and golf and he knows that each sport is different.  If we hand him a ball, he knows immediately if he should kick it, throw it, or swing...

Jammin' out with his Auntie!! He loved her sunglasses and really enjoyed sitting up front;)

A few pics of our little Raylee (already 6 months old)...isn't she adorable!!! I am loving these bathtub shots...she couldn't be happier ;)
