Mason is 2!


I can't believe that our baby Mason is 2!  What a fun boy he is.  We feel like we've come a long way with Mason.  He was an especially challenging baby, and now he's as sweet as can be.  He's always had a good heart, but now that he can speak and communicate really well, it especially shows.  We love Mason because he is so kind.  He's always making sure everyone has what they need.  If he has a snack, he wants to make sure Graham has one too.  If Graham is doing something and looks hot, Mason will go get him a water.  When Graham was playing soccer, Mason would make sure Graham had his water bottle.  

As fun and loving as Mason is, he is also quite passionate.  He doesn't forget, and gets quite worked up if something isn't quite as he imagined it should be.  Mason, at 2, still wakes up in the middle of the night.  It's really quite funny.  He'll make all sorts of outrageous demands, demanding juice, cheese sticks, or television.  We figure he just gets bored of sleeping and wants to be up.  

But we sure love Mason and are so glad we got to spend a day totally dedicated to him.  He's a sweetie.  Happy Birthday, Mason!  We sure love you.



















Elsie's blessing day


On August, 2nd, we blessed little Elsie.  We had both of our parents in town, as well as Matt's cousin Chris, his wife, Dana, and Matt's aunt Sherri and her family.  It was a really nice Sunday.  We loved having everyone in town.  Matt did a great job with the blessing, and Elise was a super good girl and looked especially cute in her dress.  


 
Somehow, though, I didn't get all the pictures I wanted to get.  We got a picture of everyone, which was the one I wanted most, but then we only got a somewhat mediocre picture of the five of us and a (very cute) picture of Matt's parents.  Sorry to my parents for not getting a picture.  : (

The following is simply a collection of pictures from August of our three cuties.  : )







This picture commemorates our first outing as a group of four...me and three kids.






















let's go fly a kite


Although we haven't had any really windy days, the boys found a decently windy day to fly their kite.
