Mason's first day of School and more...

Isn't that a Good Looking Kid!! Mason started preschool on Tuesday and absolutely loved it. His teachers our Mrs. Anna and Mrs. Terie (no, it is not me or his grandma) and they are really great with kids. He wore his "fast pants" and "cool guy hunk" hair. His words not mine.
He is really into super heroes right now and was so excited when we found a backpack with FOUR super heroes.
After school he brought home his first piece of artwork for the refrigerator.
But no matter how much schooling we give our little cool guy hunk, he will still be our monkeyboy.

Another Outing at Thanksgiving Point

Since Taj and Sage have moved away (Nikki and Mason's best friends) we try to get them together at least 2-3 times a month. This last Friday we met them at Thanksgiving Point and did the Dinosaur Museum.
Nikki was so excited to take this picture and persuaded everyone else to act scared as well.


Then we had a little extra time left and went to Farm Country where we fed the goats and rode the ponies (yes, I realize this is not a pony it is a cow, but they did ride ponies).

If this doesn't make you smile NOTHING will

Milo is quite the talker these days and since we discovered he is allergic to milk he has been a much happier baby. We went through a few rough weeks that he seemed to always be fussy and have a rash on his face, but since I have given up dairy (which is no small sacrifice, between the four of us that drink milk we go through 6 gallons a week) he has become pleasant and mellow again. He coos and talks all the time now and is quick to give a smile.

I just like this picture because he looks like such a contemplative little dude.
He even smiles when Mason holds him.
