Mason has become quite a mommy's boy over the past few weeks. I hope in 20 years he still embraces this instead of being embarrased by it!! I have been blessed beyond measure to have the opportunity to spend my time at home with Mason, and I have loved every minute of it.. well mostly every minute of it. I have started to notice a trend... Mason does something he KNOWS he isn't supposed to do (e.g. hit Cali in the eyeball), I laugh about it behind his face, Kyle tells him "no" and he comes running to mommy for sympathy. I know everyone is saying.. THIS IS SUCH A TERRIBLE HABIT, and I am fully aware of that. Which is why starting NEXT week I am going to get stricter with him. This is where my laid back attitude has not been such a good thing. It's my biggest struggle yet with mommyhood.
Like I said earlier, Mason started MDO in September. It is the same place he went last year (Brentwood Baptist) and it was such a good experience for him and me. I highly encourage kids to get involved in these programs.. I think he has learned a lot of practical skills from it (e.g. share your toys with others) and it gives me a chance to get A LOT done.

| This is actually his second day of going... Kyle had to take him his first day and didn't understand the importance of this memory. My sister even made him a cute outfit just for the picture. |
My birthday was in September, and my amazing friend Laura planned a special day for me at Arrington Vineyards. My camera battery died so I didn't get a lot of pictures, but I did get one of the boys playing. Her son, Ben, is 5 months younger than Mason.
