Mason Mania

Fun facts about what Mason likes these days:

Favorite food: absolutely loves noodles - specifically mac 'n cheese or yellow noodles (not white ones)
Favorite outside activity: mowing with his bubble lawn mower
Favorite book: "No David!"
Favorite words: "because" and "what's (he/it) doing?"
Favorite pj's: tractor jammies - he asks to wear these every night

At night Mason picks out his clothes for the next day and the shirts he picks out almost always has to have a truck or a tractor on them. Also if he's been a good listener at school, sometimes we drive by a local construction site so he can look at the tractors.

He has a specific bedtime routine for each mom and dad. We each have to sing 3 songs: I have to sing "Twinkle Twinkle", "Rock-a-bye baby" and "Sleepy Time" (a song I made up for him) and Mark sings "Twinkle Twinkle", "Row Row Your Boat" and ABC's.

Happy Easter!

Mason was very excited about Easter this year. We took the kids to the mall to see the Easter bunny on Saturday but he was on his dinner break and we weren't able to see him. Mason was pretty disappointed, but he got over it pretty quickly when we told him that the Easter bunny would still bring him a basket and hide eggs for him. :)

We had a great Easter at Pete & Peggy's house - Mason was outside all day long driving the Power Wheels in big huge circles. Kira entertained everybody with her "talking" saying "bababa" "dadadada". We're working very hard on trying to say "mamama" :)
