Mason is so sweet!!!

Mason is such a sweet big brother. He repeatedly says, "Lyla Grace is sooo cute!!!" He loves to get her toys to play with and make her laugh with his silly little noises. It is so much fun to watch them interact with each other.

Mason has the funniest sayings:

"That's for older kids." When he doesn't want to play with something.

"I can't believe it!" Just being silly!

"See you next week!" When Clay leaves for work.

"My buddy pups!" When referring to Cassius and Frasier.

We have so much fun laughing with him and wondering what he will say next!!!

Fun with Nanna

Nanna came to town...YIPPEE!! Mason had so much fun playing with her. They painted a pumpkin, looked at dinosaurs on the computer and played at the park. Mason woke up from his nap after she left and cried, "I want my Nanna!!" It is so nice to have her here but so hard to say goodbye!

Family Fun

Now that it's not so hot we have started taking our nightly walks again. We stop at the park by our house and the kids swing and play on the playground. Mason loves it and it makes the pups happy too. Last night Lyla Grace rode in the stroller like a big girl. Mason really liked being able to talk to her while we were walking.

Are you ready for some football?

Mason is...his Auburn football Halloween costume arrived today. He told me "This helmet is for big kids." That is his new saying for the week. He says it about everything. I am not sure who is more excited about Mason being a football player...Clay maybe?

Lyla Gracie is 6 months

We can't believe Lyla Gracie (Mason gave her the nickname) is already 6 months. These past 6 months have been so exciting and busy. Another tooth popped up today...so now she has 2 on the bottom. She is eating solids (bananas, pears, applesauce, and prunes) and loving it. Today we tried carrots and green beans...not so much. She has had 3 ear infections and we are hoping this round of antibiotics clears it up. When we took her to the Dr. to check her ears last week she weighed 18 lbs 2 oz. I am anxious to see how tall she is when we go next week for her 6 month check up. Even though she has an ear infection she never acts fussy and sleeps through the night without a peep. She brings so much joy to our lives!!!

Pumpkin Patch

We met some friends at the Pumpkin Patch today. Mason helped me pick out a pumpkin to carve when Nanna comes to visit this weekend. It is hard to think about Fall when it was 90 degrees in sunny Orlando.

We L-O-V-E Grandmama and Aunt Leslie

We made cupcakes with The Cake Lady aka Aunt Leslie...Mason had so much fun. We also made Lyla Grace the prettiest pink (of course b/c there is no other color) blanket sponsored by Aunt Leslie. It was sad to see them leave this morning. As they were driving off Mason said "I miss Grandmama!"
