2 Weeks Left

Here i am, 38 Weeks preggers!
I feel big, tired, hot all the time and ready to meet our new little one! Steve goes back to work next week, which we are all not looking forward to. He has been taking care of Mason the majority of the time - since it is hard for me to get down on the floor and play with him or even reach over the crib for nap and bedtime. Luckily my dad will be here on Saturday to help while we send Steve back to the work force, and prepare for the new little arrival.

Time will only tell - but will this be a late August or early Sept baby??

Mason turns 2!

On Thursday July 30th - Mason turned 2 years old! It's hard to believe how fast he is growing up. He had a great birthday - with friends and family. When he woke up in the morning he got his present from Steve and I - a mini power wheels - he had a blast riding it all around the yard! 

His friend Jackson came over for breakfast - with his parents Lisa and Dave. We had cinnamon rolls, blueberry muffins and fruit. The boys played in the yard together, while the adults visited. 
For dinner we had Steve's parents, and his sister and family over. We had pizza, salad and cupcakes for dessert. 


Here is Mason with his A. Steph, U. Josh and cousins Jacob, Olivia and Ben

Mason blew out his candle - and then ate the entire cupcake!




On Saturday - we celebrated Mason's birthday again with my side of the family. Nonie and Papa gave Mason a tricycle and helmet. He was so excited about the helmet - he put it on still in the packaging. 


He had his own personal cake
and ate so much of it, I thought for sure he was going to get sick! But of course he was fine - just full of energy...

Mason is such a wonderful son! He is always on the go, from the moment he gets up in the morning till bedtime. He always wants to be outside playing, no matter what the weather is like. 
He loves to snack throughout the entire day - never having a big meal - and loves to ask for "special nummies."
He always has a smile, and is very loveable. 
He is really into baseball: hitting from the tee, playing catch with dad and Handy Manny!
Recently Mason has gotten excited when he see's the garbage truck - I told him that his U. Pete drives a garbage truck - so he now walks around saying, "uncle pete garbage car!"
