Who loves a truck?

I wish someone would have told me how difficult it would be to got to work and school and have a baby with only one car! we tried to ignore it but it's been so inconvenient so we've been looking and finally found a Dodge Dakota Truck. It's got a full back seat and actually has more room and better gas milage than our jeep. I love it andTravis loves it (its a stick) and the Dogs love the back!

Great grandparents

I am so glad mason lives so close and gets to see his great grandparents so often. I'm also glad they think he's so cute :)

Thank you Great Aunt Renata

Travis' dad's dad's brother's wife made Mason this crocheted blanket. It was kind of her. It is something we will cherish.

Grill off 2012

Travis' family is slowly making a tradition of getting together with a cooking theme and having some friendly competition. This memorial day weekend we went out to harrington to have a grill off. Travis made a salmon with an apricot jalapeño glaze and won! About 18 months ago we had a chili cook off and I won with my white bean chili. So basically we are just a bumch of winners. Mason was just loved on by everyone! What a great way to start the weekend. We love spemding time with family!

Lounging

It's a tough life for a four month old :)

Practicing for summer fun.

We bought this lifejacket for mason this summer. I couldn't wait to try it out and he loved it. Bath time lasted a whole hour!

Doesn't get much cuter

My day off

I spent my day off snuggling with my little man! It was the best day! It was so needed!

Crinkle book

Mason loves this little crinkle book we have. It makes lots of noise when he touches it. He loves the pictures and will sit and look at it ( and chew on it ) for quite a while.

We were spoiled with lots of shopping and food.

Tummy time

Mason generally loves tummy time. He recently love the quilt my mom made him to see all the red white and blue. He can roll from his stomach to back and loves to lounge suck his hands and look around.
