December Phone Pictures

Mason LOVES chips & salsa & of course... cheese dip! Who doesn't love cheese dip?!!?



YUMMMMMMY :) There isn't a salsa too hot for this little boy! He just says "hot" drinks a sip of milk & goes back for more!!


This is the face I get if I ask Mason to say "cheese" - hahahahah he is HILARIOUS!!!


During the summer Grandpa took Mason to the street & let him stomp BARE FOOT in some rain water that had collected by the gutter! I had a FIT that my dad let him stomp BARE FOOT in nasty old rainwater in the street! Mason, however, had the time of his life & has insisted on stomping in every puddle ever since!!! He is 100% BOY! Whenever Mason is feeling restless we just take him out side, throw on his boots & let him stomp away!!  



Check out this video of Mase spalshin' around in his boots!!


 I put Mase on our bed while I finished getting ready... He already has a "relaxed" position down pat :)


We were up at my parents & I went looking for Mason & his Grandpa... I walked into my dad's office & found the two of them like this....


This is the look I got from Mason when he saw me crashin their coloring book party... Can't you just picture him saying "Moooommm, come on, I'm hanging out with my Paaw Paaw" haha :) The only person Mason would pick over his Mommy!!


MiMi & Paw Paw came down for a visit & brought Mason a WONDERFUL gift!! A fold out Lightning McQueen couch!! Mason was in HEAVEN! He love love loves to lay on it & watch the movie Cars!! Of course he must have his monkey that Auntie Rero & Bear brought him back from their honeymoon named Mombo & his Mommy Bear that came with a book fair book I bought him, and his alllllll time prize possession - his BUBBY- that's what he calls the blanket my mom made for him before he was born that he now sleeps with every night!! It's such a special treat :) Thanks MiMi & Paw Paw :)



I had a Holiday Girls Cookies & Cocktails get together & Analisa brought over Mason's #1 girlfriend, my future daughter in law MacKenzie :) MacKenzie is Mason's BFF Brady's little sister! Mason LOVES to dote all over MacKenzie! He loves to give her kisses all day long at Miss Deniser's house! It makes sense that he loves MacKenzie so much because Mason has ALWAYS loved Analisa!!

MacKenzie does look a little miserable here but I promise she DOES love Mason back! We just need to work on his baby holding skills before he becomes a big brother!!


Haha this picture cracks me up! I think I should stop asking him to say cheeeese in pictures! He just gets so super excited & add in MacKenzie & he's just cheeeeesin away :) Such a sweet happy boy!!!


It doesn't get sweeter than the look on Mason's face while getting a kiss from MacKenzie :) We'll put this in the slide show at their rehearsal dinner :) haha


GiGi got us an AMAZING reservation at the 1818 for Santa Brunch!! It was a DELICIOUS brunch in our own private room!! Mason had BOTH of his grandparents in one room so you KNOW he was spoiled rotten & in HEAVEN!! Mason LOVES his Grandparents to pieces!!!

The sitting on santa's lap part didn't go so well...

you can see we tried to bribe him with a candycane... no dice!



Much happier with Mommy as a buffer :)


As soon as he got off Santa's lap, Mason turned & looked right at Santa & said " I love you" it was so stinkin sweet :)

Thanksgiving in Clarksville :)

I have to find cd with pictures on it before i post this...

Beach Trip with the Jones Family for Tyler's Wedding :)

We packed up the family & headed down to Blue Mountain the second weekend in November for Tyler & Christina's Destination Wedding :) We stayed at Aunt Kaki & PePaw's Beach House with GiGi & Papa Tom and Aaron, Carrie & Baby Jackson!

Mason enjoyed a lovely walk on the beach with Gigi & Papa Tom followed by fun play time with Aunt Carrie & Uncle Aaron :)


My little boy is FINALLY starting to get some hair :) Beach Blonde & I'm LOVING it :)



Aunt Kaki was SOOOO sweet to keep Mason  & Jackson while the rest of us went to the wedding & reception! Mason had a BLAST with Kaki!! He loves his Aunt Kaki SOOO much! He gets to excited whenever he sees her & gives her lots of hugs & kisses!!


The Wedding Gang :)


The best part of the weekend... we got to see UNCLE ADMA!!! Mason won't say adam but says Adma like a champ :) haha



Sweet Baby Jackson Jones


It was WONDERFUL to spend some time with Adam! We miss him so much!!!



We had a blast!! Thanks Everyone for a fabulous weekend :)



November Phone Pictures

Mason had his 18 month well visit with Dr.Jackson on 11-9-10
Check out his stats :) Healthy BOY!!!

Mason LOVES going to Ms.Deniser's house & ESPECIALLY loves when Taylor & Amber get home from school. Those girls are going to make AWESOME Mommas one day because they are AMAZING with our children! We are beyond blessed to have this family in our lives! Mason would be so so sad without his favorite ladies :)


Mason is especially fond of Amber! He giggles whenever I tell him to go give her a kiss bye :) It's adorable, he gets all shy & flirty! He LOOOOOVES him some Amber :)


Mason started sporting his hat on the way to & from school now that it's getting chilly out! I hate the flash lighting in this picture, but LOVE my sweet boy's face :)


Mason's new obsession... Monkey Joe's :) Mason's BFF Brady introduced him to this magical place & things haven't been the same :) Monkey Joes is a great play place with a dozen different jumpy bouncy slides & obstacles :) We make a weekly trip now & it is especially fun with Ms.Deniser & her girls meet us there :) Mason will go down all the big slides with just a little help climbing up from Mommy or Amber :)


Monkey Joe's also has CARS that Mason LOVES!!!




And of course... STILL in love with his bath time & his fishy towel :)  


Peakaboo :)

These are some of my favorite pictures & video of Mason- therefore it deserved its own post!! One night after dinner Mason was being especially entertaining & decided to ham it up for the camera!!

















Mason will ask to watch this video of himself OVER & OVER again :) He LOVES cracking up at himself as much as we do :)

Halloween 2010

We had a hard time deciding what Mason would dress up as for Halloween this year. I originally wanted him to be a firefighter (OF COURSE) but when my Dad & I went shopping for costumes they were all out of firefighter in his size :( It turned out perfect because Grandpa found the perfect costume! Our little Super Man :) Mason loved it & so did everyone else!!

We took Mason to the Southeastern Train Museum for their Trick-or-Train celebration! Mason is a HUGE fan of trains and as he would find out today for the first time- candy- so it was a win win :)


He didn't quite get the whole "trick or treat" think, but he did say please and thank you to each person handing out candy :)


One of Mason's older and beautiful girlfriends Evie Keyes brought her parents to keep us company while they hung out :) Nate & I love spending time with the Keyes so it worked out perfect :)



GiGi gave Mason this cutest bag to collect his loot :) Thanks GiGi!


Of Course Mase sported his all white airforce ones from Miss Nise :)



He doesn't look like it here... but he really did have a BLAST on the trains!



The highlight of Mason's month... his first piece of candy! Mason LOVED his tootsie pop! It was hysterical! He didn't know what to think at first... thankfully Evie showed him the ropes!



One HAPPY boy!! Taking it away, was NOT an option at that point :)





Another first... face painting! It was good in theory, but we will have to use a professional next time!

The girl did a wonderful job on Evies fairy face, but really epically failed at Mason's superman "S"- it was an old school stussi S- it was ridiculous!!!!


Needless to say Mason enjoyed the rest of his sucker on the way to lunch with his girlfriend! It was a beautiful day & we had a great lunch on the patio!!








It was a PERFECT Halloween Celebration :)
