Arizona Fan

Mason loves to wear Daddy's Arizona hat. It fits him very well!

Mason and Molli time

I think Mason has definitely grown attached to Molli and can appreciate her more these days.:)She is such a good dog. They play together so nicely.

Serious Football here

Here in TX they take High School football very serious, just like on the drama show Friday Night Lights. And as a matter of fact, we live right next door to Leander High School. Check out their stadium. They have skyboxes! I took some pics for my football coach brother to drool over. :)

New Playground

We have a nice little playground within walking distance of our house which is great for Mason and very toddler friendly structure. I'm home with him this week so it was nice to get outside and get him from fresh air during playtime.

Hugs and Kisses for Molli

Welcome Home Present

Daddy left a special surprise waiting for Mason when we arrived at the new house. It was a Radio Flyer wagon, the luxury model equipped with a canopy and cupholders along with dual seating for a friend! He loved it and hopped right in. We took it for a stroll when Daddy arrived in town on Friday. That evening we met our friends for dinner at a wing place which was fabulous! Mason wanted a sip of Daddy's drink so we gave it to him. It was iced tea and of course he loved it. Go figure! Also, now when we sneeze he says "bless you" :)

Home Sweet Home......Arrived in TX!

Well, the day has finally arrived and Mason and I flew to TX early this morning. I took some pics of him on the plane, but it was with my disposable camera. I didn't want to take my other camera with me. I had too many bags with me as it was. I was pleasantly surprised, Mason did great on the plane. We stopped at a toy shop at Midway airport in Chicago and that took up some time during our layover. The new toys kept him busy fo the second leg of the flight. This time when we were landing his ears hurt a little bit, but he was a trooper! No major meltdowns and I didn't even have to pull out my laptop to play a movie.


Here is our new home!

ROAR Dinosaur!!! So Mason just loves dinosaurs right now. He's currently seen Ice Age about 20 times. He says "watch dinosaur movie mommy" so of course I put it on again. He has a triceratops, a T-Rex, and an animated dinosaur that roars. We can't wait to take him to a museum to see more dinosaurs!

Last Tuesday (3/9) night I woke up because I heard Mason talking in his crib and it lasted longer than normal. I went in to check on him and found him standing up talking. I thought he was wide awake but when I got closer to him I realized he must have been dreaming. I laid him down quietly and he went back to bed without a peep. It was very scary seeing him like that. I didn't want to wake him. He was talking about his daycare friend Julianna who he just loves. The next night I heard him talking again in his sleep, but only for a few seconds.

Do you like how he can answer his buzz lightyear phone with paci in hand???

Chillin with Molli

Ready to move...

Mason is ready to get packing and move to Austin, TX! Here I come Daddy!

Playtime outside ...finally

Well, we are almost into Spring and I like it! In less than 3 weeks, our family will be living in Austin, TX! We are very excited. It was sad to see Daddy leave again, but our journey is more than 1/2 way over. We'll all soon be together. We are counting down the days! I'm looking forward to warm weather pretty much year round. Molli needs to lose a few lbs so she'll be spending more time outdoors getting some much needed exercise. I can't wait to see our new house and our friends!

Right now Mason is into Dinosaurs and trains. He says stop (too well and in the right context), okie dokie (which sounds like okie okie), and a lot of other words, phrases, and sentences. He's eating rice again and his calcium chews! He loves peanut butter crackers and goldfish!
