Here comes #2

Baby number 2 is on it's way and should arrive on or hopefully before November 14. Christian and I are both very excited and Kylee is in for a very BIG surprise. Wish me luck as the two will be exactly 18 months apart. Are we out of our minds?

Easter Weekend

This post is long over due and I really have no excuses other than I have just been extremely lazy. We had a great time in SLC celebrating Easter. Kylee loved being around the nieces and nephews and especially loved her grandpa Mason. She is still warming up to grandma Mason though. I swear LeAnn we are not teaching her to act like that around you.

I think Kylee picked up on the whole Easter egg hunt really fast because she would pick up an egg, shake it then drop it in her basket and squeal for the next. Of course I reaped the rewards of her hard work and downed all of her candy in about 2 minutes.

While we were up there visiting we got to go to one of Christian's FAVORITE restaurants called the Red Iguana. While we were there Kylee kept waving and smiling at this lady that was behind the counter which is so not like her. The next thing we know this lady brings out a Red Iguana T-Shirt for her and apparently the lady she was waving at was the owners daughter and she just thought Kylee was the cutest little girl EVER so she gave us a t-shirt. Let me just tell you that Christian was in heaven. Not only do they have UH-MAZING food but it's the bomb because they gave our daughter a free t-shirt which Christian thinks should be framed.

We had a great weekend and one that will for sure go down in history. I hope everyone else had a great Easter weekend as well.

All you mom's out there

I'm begging for advice. Kylee and I have hit a HUGE rut and I'm not sure I know how to get out of it. A few weeks ago I started feeding Kylee macaroni and cheese. Up until that day she was still eating her baby food with no fuss at all. Now..... she won't touch the stuff. Not only will she not eat her baby food she won't eat anything besides mac and cheese. I have tried EVERYTHING. I tried chicken and stars, cut up pieces of fruit, cooked peas. You name it I have tried it. I can't force her to eat anything else because if I do she won't trust that I am giving her something good to eat and then she won't eat anything at all. So my question is.... Should I worry about this and quit feeding her mac and cheese or should I keep feeding her mac and cheese and just be glad she is eating something? I'm about ready to pull my hair out as it is an all out battle of stubbornness at lunch and dinner and I usually lose. Advice anyone?????

Handle With Care

For lack of things to blog about I have decided to blog about another one of Christian's crazy dreams. Hope you all laugh as much as I did. Love ya Christian.

I was rudely awakened last night at the sound of things moving around such as the lamp, reading material, the alarm clock and such. As I rolled over to see what in the world was going on I see Christian's pillow on the night stand. So I ask as usual "What are you doing?" and he sits there for a minute and then quickly realizes that he was dreaming, grabs his pillow and goes back to sleep. At that point I was too tired to ask him to explain the pillow being on the nightstand so I rolled over and went back to sleep. This morning as he is getting ready for work he asks me if I'm interested in knowing why he was doing what he was doing last night. Um.... HECK YES I AM YOU FREAK OF NATURE. So he begins to tell me that he thought the pillow was an award winning sandwich and that he was worried about smashing the sandwich and the sauces on the sandwich getting all over the bed. So he was strategically moving everything on the nightstand so that he could place his sandwich (the freaking pillow) there. What in the world???? Who dreams about giant sandwiches the size of your pillow? Christian Mason.... Anyone that knows Christian should know how passionate he is about food. Totally makes sense that he is dreaming about giant sandwiches that win awards.
I love you Christian. Thank you for always making me laugh. I will take a good laugh anytime I can get it even if it is at 3 in the morning.

Like Father Like Daughter

Need I say More???

We have lift off

Ok so this is probably not exciting for anyone else but me but I'm posting about it anyway. Kylee got her first tooth today. Can you believe it? 8 and 1/2 months old and she just got her first tooth. I really am so excited for her even though she really has no idea what that weird thing in her mouth is. What a big step and super to cool to see as a new mom.

Happy Birthday Christian

So this is a little late (a day to be exact) due to a very sick child and a very busy day but I couldn't skip this post. Happy 30th Birthday Christian!!!! I just want you to know how much I love you. You truly are the best husband anyone could ever ask for and I really am blessed to have you in my life. Thank you for always making me and everyone around you laugh. You have am AMAZING personality and even better a great sense of humor. You make life so much easier even though I try my hardest to make it difficult. Thank you for your patience and your love. I don't know anyone else that would be able to put up with my freak outs and my yelling fits. And I have never been loved the way that you love me. You always have a way of making me feel like I am the most important person in the world to you. Most of all, thank you for being such an awesome dad. I see in your eyes and your actions just how much you love Kylee. She really is a lucky girl to have you as her dad. We love you so much and we hope that you had a great birthday.
