Bath fun gone bad!!

So Manny, being the comical one in our family, thought it would be funny to get Mason a bathtub finger paint kit. People who have kids, like myself, dont buy things like this because they are messy and cause distress when it is time to get out of the tub. Thanks Manny, you're the greatest....I cant wait til you have kids of your own. Now I have to go and clean the tube of orange finger paint off the floor and bathtub!!

While Daddy's away....

Will left Wed to go to Las Vegas for furniture market. We have been having loads of Mommy Mason fun and are trying to keep busy while he is gone. We miss him so much. Wed. we got our list of friends for the Valentine's party at school. We signed up to bring candy and fruit..yum. We went to Target and picked out our Valentines (debating between Yo GABA GABA and Cars). Mason decided on Cars, so we are going to work on those tonight. Saturday we went and go smoothies!! Mason went to the babysitter Saturday night while Mommy had a girls night out. We ate dinner and saw He's Just Not That Into You. Today, with the nice weather, I attempted to teach Mason how to ride the tricycle. This is totally a Daddy job, so I just pushed him around on it! Speaking of nice weather...how can it be 13 degrees on Tues and 65 on Sunday???AAAHHHH

I love this kid!!!

Baltimore Aquarium

We had a great time going to the aquarium. This is Mason's 2nd time to go there. However, the first time we went he had just turned one. We had so much fun, plus they were not busy so Mason got to run around, which was fun for him.

Mason and Will plotting against me!!
About to go into the Australia exhibit

We kept telling Mason the sharks were going to get him!!

Trip to Baltimore

Last weekend, I went to a conference on Dementia Management in Baltimore. Will and Mason came with me and we had nice little weekend get-away.

I love this kid!!

This is how Mason poses if I try to take his picture. Check out the wine glass with apple juice Will had him drinking out of while they had breakfast in the room.

Our first night we had dinner with Michelle. She was my first ever student intern from JMU. She is finishing her last semester at the Kreger Institute in Baltimore.

Hair cuts and scars

We took Mason to get his hair cut Friday night. It was a very unpleasant experience for all involved. We got hit with another winter storm this week. It snowed all day yesterday, then iced last night. Sorry, no snow photos, but this boy has been super happy staying home from school and getting to play all day at home.

I tried to get a good pic of his haircut, but like always he hates having his picture made and will not be still for me.

Silly boy.

First scar...All I'm gonna say on this issue is that whil we were on vacation, Mason fell and cut his ear and has a scar now. Not sure if you can see it well, but its there.

This sweet boy was so Excited when we went and played in the snow. He laughed so hard. It is so fun to see him enjoy himself and have such a great time. We weren't even expecting snow today, so we were very suprized when it started snowing...and didn't stop.

Silly boy
Having fun.

Trying to get me with a snowball!

Such a happy face.

Getting up...........

After a fall.

This boy loves playing in the snow

I took a photo of the snow coming down today. I love how pretty things look in the snow.

I made a video for my sweet friend Lesley because I know how much she likes the snow and wanted to share it with her. The other video is of Mason chasing me around, getting me with a snowball. Ignore my screaming. I was trying to get away!!!
