Maternity Pictures

I had my maternity pictures done this weekend and I love them.  I even got DD to take a few pictures with Mason and I!!!  I want to have a few printed out on canvas for our room.  My friend Meghan Thomas did this photo shoot for me.   These are really the only pregnancty pictures I have for this little guy.

Rice Project

It was a rainy day so we did a fun project.  I colored some rice and put a letter on each of the kids cards.  Then we glued the rice onto the letters...the kids really enjoyed it.  I did try to keep the colors separated so we could talk about the colors.  Well that was short lived! 
Of course my child didn't like getting glue on his hands, but we worked through it and he ended up really enjoying to project!

May May did her hair!  she loves to do everyones hair!

Really concentrating! 

Burning off Steam!

It's so hard to be cooped up inside during the winter.  We would try to get out as much as we could to burn off steam.

 When you got to go you got to go! 

Killer blue eyes!!!

Stream

We have a really neat stream in our back yard.  The kids really enjoyed it...honetly it's only a stream after a rain.

Behind

I'm a bit behind on my pictures, so I'm going to try to catch this week. The KEY word is TRY!!! I have a lot of editing still to do from Christmas. I also want to post pictures on shutterfly so family members can order pictures if they want. I'm so sorry I'm so behind. I hope to catch up soon...Mason and this pregnancy has really kicked my butt!!! I hope once I'm back in the gym I can find some energy.

Anywho...here are a few pictures from a few weeks ago...I believe these pictures are from the warm week we had...looking forward to having more days like that!!! 

I have the hardest time getting this little to look at me when I have the camera.  I'm lucky to see those eye balls of his!  It's not often I get a smile on camera.  The funny thing is he is happy 90% of the time and a huge tease. 

If only looks could kill!  She was getting frustrated with me because I wanted her to keep looking at me and she wanted to play.  Can't say I blame her!!! 

When your child has come home dirty you know they have had a good day.  I'm all about playing in the dirt and mud when the weather is nice.  Now my child doesn't mind walking in it or getting it on his pants. He just doesn't like to touch it.  He really is funny to watch in the mud!!!   

LEGOS

Daddy bought Mason his first Lego set...Mason was laughing with such excitement.  He did so well with waiting until we got home to rip it open.  As soon as we walked through the door he was asking for his box and asking Daddy to help him.  Mason did pretty good with waiting while DD put his lego truck together.  Mason did try to help and of course he was just scattering all the pieces around, making it harder for DD to put it together.  I was pretty proud of DD and how patient he was with Mason.  When Mason would get impatient he would try to grab the unfinished truck, he really couldn't help himself!   DD was super about  stopping and showing Mason the truck on the box. DD would tell him he was putting the truck on the box together for him.  Trying to explain something like that to a toddler is so hard.  I felt bad for Mason because he had no idea they had to put it together.  He just wanted the truck from the box and he thought after he opened the box he would have his truck!  It warmed my heart watching them put this Lego contraption together.    

The new HOMET

It's late and I really need to get to bed, but I really wanted to share these pictures of Mason with his new helmet.  Mason calls helmets HOMETS...I love to listen to him talk. 

So very proud of his new helmet!  It's all about the little things in life! I love to make him happy and to see his face shine!!! 

He's saying,"my Big Monster Truck"

I get so excited to watch him ride his bike.  He normally will take a few laps around the drive way and then he's done.  He does get that proud look on his face when he gets on his bike and starts to peddle.
