Christmas was so wonderful this year as the Parks family did not travel! It was so nice to just be at our house for Christmas. <br />
<br />
We took the boys to see Santa and I was not so sure how Mason would react. He ran to Santa with open arms! It is crazy to see the different pictures and how the boys have grown! Santa has seemed to change too! This year Logan asked Santa for a wooden train and Mason "asked" for a basketball hoop. <br />

We made our annual trip to Hobby Lobby and let the boys pick out an ornament. Logan picked a train and Mason picked a Minion!<br />

After Christmas we spent a few days in Brenham with my family. We thought we would check out the Lights of Tejas at Camp Tejas in Giddings and it was great! Very family friendly, no crowds, no lines, and $8 to get in?? Count me in! We did a hayride, sledding, bounce houses and ended the night with a great fireworks show. We will be going back next year for sure, the kids had a blast!<br />

We spent New Years at my best friend's house in Austin. It was so much fun and the kids had a great time. I have zero pictures from that night, oh well! We had a great break and now back to reality!<br />

Bryan had actually been wanting to get it cut since summer but I told him to wait until he turned 2! Those curls are just too cute!<br />
<br />
He was our brave boy and sat still on Daddy's lap while she cut his hair. Of course they put his little blonde curls in a bag for me to put in his baby book. <br />

<br />
We had all our family over for Christmas at our house this year and it was the day before Mason's actual birthday and I was NOT going to stress out and have two parties. So we combined it and it was fine. December birthdays are hard to plan. The next day was all about Mason's special day. We went and looked at Christmas lights, he played with his new train set, we watched Finding Dory and then got some Blizzards.<br />
<br />
Mason is our wild one. He is sweet and lovable and always on the move and BUSY. He is embracing being a toddler, tantrums included! Mason has been testing our limits and he goes to "time out" if he needs to. We are still working on sharing and not biting/hitting when he gets mad. Despite all the fits, Mason just brightens our life. He is sweet and loves to give lots of hugs and kisses. He sometimes likes to cuddle but will not stay on our lap very long. He is a great sleeper and is in bed by 7:30 pm with little to no fuss about being in bed. He has to sleep with his monkey, Elmo and blankets. He does not cover up with his blankets, just sleeps with them. He has a head full of curly blonde locks. I love to play with his little ringlets, they just bounce right back! Bryan told me that when he is two we have to get his hair cut and I am dreading it, but it is getting a little out of control. He LOVES shoes! He will bring mommy and daddy their "soos" for the day. Or if he sees shoes he loves to put his feet in them and attempt to walk around. He loves watching movies and cartoons with Logan. His favorites are the movie Home, Minions and Frozen but only the Olaf part. He loves books. He will sit and "read" his books in his room. He is still in his crib and we are going to leave him in it probably until next year when the boys begin to share a room. <br />
<br />
He went to the doctor and weighs in right at 30 pounds. He also had no problem with the doctor! This is a very different story than with Logan! He let the doctor check him out and did not even cry for the shot! He is our brave boy. He is wearing mostly 2T some 24 month things still and in a size 6 shoe, but can wear a 7 also. He is in a size 4 diaper and we are in the beginning stages of going potty (not much). <br />
<br />
SAYING: Mason is talking SO much! He will try his best to repeat everything we say. <br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Luh loo Mama, Bubba, Dada--I think this is my favorite!</li>
<li>I some </li>
<li>Doe-Whoa (Donut) </li>
<li>Mia (Mac n cheese) </li>
<li>Doggy</li>
<li>Fishy</li>
<li>Apoo (apple) </li>
<li>Suzzy (our dog Sully) </li>
<li>Siki (dog Suki) </li>
<li>Paw Paw</li>
<li>Rams (Grams) </li>
<li>No No (this is HIS favorite) </li>
<li>Yep </li>
<li>Nite Nite</li>
<li>Bye Bye</li>
<li>Llama (loves Llama books) </li>
<li>Elmo</li>
<li>Minion </li>
<li>Olaf</li>
<li>Go Owside (go outside) </li>
<li>Waller (water) </li>
<li>Milk</li>
<li>Soos (shoes) </li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
Likes: Blowing kisses, bubbles, wrestling with big brother, Minions, Olaf, Elmo, shoes, going outside, howling like a dog, singing, petting "Siki" and "Suzzy", playing on the play scape and going down the big slide, running, playing with any type of ball, trucks, trains, books. He is also just so sweet to Logan--most of the time. They really love to play together and I cannot wait until they share a room---maybe next year.<br />
<br />
Favorite Food: Bananas, Cheese, Macaroni and Cheese, Waffles, Donuts, Pizza, Apples.Yes this is mostly all he eats. Macaroni and cheese is his go to most nights. He also loves his Doe-Whoas (donuts). He tried bacon the other day and liked it. The only meat he has eaten is nuggets from Chick Fil A or chicken strips from Wings n More. We bake chicken at home and he does not eat it. We have tried to introduce him to new foods with little success. He likes to walk in the kitchen and try to open the pantry even after dinner. He also likes to raid the fridge. We always have to tell him OUT OF THE KITCHEN most nights. <br />
<br />
Dislikes: He does not like to ride in the car that much unless it is a long trip then he falls asleep. He does not like getting his diaper changed...potty training might be coming sooner than we thought. He goes to the potty at school, but very beginning stages of it. He doesn't mind being carried but he wants to walk on his own most days. <br />
<br />
Mason, you are just the light of our lives! Your smile and laugh can make the worst of days go away. You are loving, smart, and downright sweet. We love you so much Buggie. Happy Birthday to you!!<br />

I have neglected my blog! Apologies to the 3 people that read it! :)<br />
<br />
Since August, I have started a new job, Logan started Kindergarten, swimming lessons, soccer and went fishing for the first time. Mason is so close to being the big TWO and doing/saying all kinds of fun things! I also went on a little girls trip with my friends for my birthday this year. The big 32. <br />
<br />
It seems like yesterday we were putting our sweet little bald baby in day care at 6 weeks old. Now he is a big kid off to Kindergarten. His teacher is Ms. Malish and he just loves her. He got his first report card the other day and he is doing great! Needs work on listening to instructions, but we are working on that. It is amazing to me he is learning sight words and how to sound out words. He will be reading soon! Not long after school started,we went to a friends property and Logan caught his first fish! He was excited. He caught a total of about 5 of them. Logan also did swimming lessons. YES, it was his first time to do swimming lessons. All kids learn at a different pace and before this, he was just not ready. He loved his swim teacher and loved to "scoop" and sing the frogs on the logs song. I am hoping by next summer we will be free of the puddle jumper but only if he is ready. <br />

I left my job in Student Life and moved to the Mays Business School. It was a hard decision but much needed change in my life. I miss the people I worked with but I am still on West Campus so I get to see them once in a while. I am learning and adjusting to the Business School side of things and it is great so far! Everyone has been very welcoming and super nice!<br />

Oh Mason Bruce. Terrible twos already and we are a few months shy of him actually turning two!<br />
He is our daredevil and little stinker. He climbs up on things, jumps off of things, and most of the time picks fights with his brother. He tells everyone NO and shakes his little head or points his little finger. He makes Bryan want to go get a vasectomy. (And no, I will not let him do that.....not just yet.) That is the truth. He is just our little troublemaker, but he is so dang cute! He recently discovered that little red monster, Elmo and cannot get enough of him. I really don't know what it is about Elmo but my kids love him. He is getting just too big and a real ham! And NO I have not cut his hair yet! Too many curls and I just cannot do it just yet!<br />

I went to New Bransfels with two of my close girlfriends for my birthday this year. Shout out to my awesome hubby who was on Daddy duty all weekend. It rained all weekend but we had a blast! Went to see Bad Moms (SO funny!) and really just hung out, relaxed and might have had a few too many adult beverages. It was great to be able to do that once in a while!<br />

Well this year, my Mom decided to take on three out of the four grandsons! Grams Camp 2016 was happening and Logan would be away from us 5 whole nights! She is crazy but Hunter is 10 so he helps her with the little ones. Hayden and Logan fight quite a bit because they are only a year apart. <br />
They had a fun filled FIVE days. They enjoyed: movies, going out to the farm, visiting Blue Bell, a water park, the park, and lots more! Needless to say my mom was exhausted by the end. When we picked up Logan my Mom said maybe next year it will only be 3 nights!<br />

Well I got sick,but the kids had so much fun! <br />
<br />

<br />
The park was so family friendly and it was a super laid back atmosphere. We would get up, go to the park, then pretty much the pool all day and then a hay ride at night. We only stayed 2 nights and by the end pretty exhausted. Tent camping in July, we were pretty thankful we brought the portable ac unit. We kept it pretty chilly in there and zipped it up so when we got back to the camp, it was nice and cool! We would let all the kids nap in there since it was the only cold air we had.<br />
Logan loved the waterpark. I would say that it would be fun for kids ages 2-10. Although we saw some older kids there. Mason LOVED going down the slide with Daddy! I am pretty sure Bryan carried him up and down the stairs for the slide more than 20 times. He would just squeal with delight and then after they were at the bottom Mason would point and say SLI, SLI!!<br />
I have also learned vacation with kids is not really a vacation. It is not relaxing, you are just at a different place with your kids. I did enjoy the times that Mason was napping and Logan was sliding and I could just sit in the lounge chairs for a while. BUT it is not really about us, it is about them and they had such a great time!<br />
<br />
<br />
We will probably go again next year and maybe splurge to stay in the cabins. They were pretty pricey!<br />

<br />
He is pretty much a big kid now and I am in denial.<br />

I took him for his 18 month check up (no shots, yay!) he weighed 25 pounds. He is thinning out (well not sure where, he still looks round!) He is wearing mostly 24 month and 2T clothe and still in size 3 diapers. We still have not gotten his hair cut because his curls are just too sweet---but it will be soon though, his hair is getting pretty unruly.<br />

<br />
Mason is FINALLY walking! It was a few weeks after he turned 18 months old and he took off. It took him a while to get it but he has it down now. He is still wobbly, but for the most part he walks on his own and does not crawl. We thought that kid would never walk! And he walked for the first time towards Logan and I and I bribed him with a waffle :)<br />
<br />
We also took the pacifier away this month. Wow, it was rough. He cried for a few days at night, but then it was like he never had it. <br />
<br />
He is saying all kinds of words! Bataball (any kind of ball he sees, we think he is trying to say basketball), bubba, mommy, (he cries mommy for really anything he wants) dada, dodgey (tries to say doggy), eat, joosh (juice) up, down, nite nite, book, car, fish, bubbles, mine (his favorite).<br />
He also will yell: STOP THAT! and GET DOWN! because we yell that to him on the daily. <br />
We ask him what the cow says: MOOOOOO and he has to push his little head forward to really get the MOOOOO affect. <br />
<br />
We will also ask him things like to go get his cup or put something in the trash and he knows what to do. We also will ask him if he wants to do something and he will happily say YEAH and get very excited if it something like reading books, playing in the water or eating. But we ask him if he needs to go to bed he will say NO!<br />
<br />
He is pretty round but we are not sure how. He really does not eat that much. He likes: waffles, bananas, cheese, goldfish, macaroni and cheese (he might eat this for dinner most nights), watermelon, and some chicken. I remember when Logan was that age, he ate tacos, spaghetti, not Mason, he is pretty picky. We offer it to him and he just makes a face and pushes it away. <br />

<br />
He loves bubbles, throwing balls, "playing" (pretty much wrestling) with brother, playing in the water, being outside, going for walks, reading books, his monkey, bath time, eating snacks, coloring (on the walls included!)<br />

Or as he says, he is a whole hand! Not quite sure how that happened, but it did. It is very true when people say the days are long and years are short. It is like I blinked and my bald baby is a big kid now. Take a walk with me down memory lane while I sob.....<br />

Per Logan's request, he wanted a pirate party. We had lots of family and friends come out the other weekend to celebrate. We got a pretty sweet bounce house that looked like a pirate ship and all the kids were super excited. It was a great day!<br />

We went for his 15 months check up and he weighed 25 pounds. He is the 70% for weight and 40% for height. Logan was always in the 80-90% for height. Mason is our short and round little guy. He got his shots and was a real trooper, not even one tear!<br />
He has been learning and doing all sorts of things it seems like over the past few months.<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Boy, does this guy have a temper on him! If he sees a toy and wants it and we take it from him (no honey, I don't want you to choke on a Hot Wheels car) he gets so mad. Screams at the top of his lungs and throws himself on the ground and kicks his legs. This goes on for about 15 minutes, sometimes longer. And there is NO consoling him. Logan is such a sweet big brother and tries to give him another toy, or a snack or something and he will just shoo it away or hit Logan. One time, Mason was throwing a fit in the bathtub the other night and I was trying to bathe him and he was kicking and screaming and went under the water. I pulled him up so quick, scared me. We never had these bad of temper fits with Logan so this is all new to me. The best thing we can do is ignore him and he will eventually calm down. He also throws fits when we put him in his car seat. As you can see from this picture, he falls asleep grumpy. </li>

<ul>
<li>His eating has changed since he turned one. Used to, he ate everything in sight. Lately he is getting more and more picky. He will spit out food if he doesn't like it. I made spaghetti the other night and he would not touch it. Some foods he loves are:</li>
<ul>
<li>Mac n cheese</li>
<li>chicken</li>
<li>beans</li>
<li>hamburger meat</li>
<li>bread </li>
<li>goldfish</li>
<li>bananas</li>
<li>yogurt</li>
<li>applesauce---As you can see no veggies at all! We have given him peas, carrots, green beans, broccoli, he spits them out. He is learning how to use the spoon and is quite messy with it as you can imagine. </li>

<li>This kid LOVES balls! He will throw around a ball (and he actually throws pretty good!) and be entertained. He would rather have a ball than any other toy. We have a balloon that has been blown up for a while and he loves to toss it to us and then go after it. </li>
<li>He is still not walking. He has taken a few steps behind a push toy, but that is about it. He walks along the couch and will walk with us when we hold on to him, but hasn't gotten the courage to let go just yet. We always laugh and say his big belly is throwing him off balance! </li>

<li>LOVES his brother. Oh man, always wants to be where brother is and do what brother is doing. He calls him "bubba" and Logan loves it. They play very well together and loves to get on the floor and wrestle. Logan is gentle, but Mason seems to be the rough house one. Logan can always seem to get Mason to laugh or dance. </li>

He is such a sweet, sensitive caring soul. So when Mason came along, he was smitten from the start. Like obsessed with baby Mason or "Buggie" as we call him. He always wanted to get him his bottle, pacifier or just wanting to kiss him.<br />

When Mason started to crawl at about 9 months, he also started to follow big brother around. Logan was so excited to show him new things and play with him. Around Mason's first birthday he learned to wave bye, clap, and throw balls (he loves any kind of ball, maybe we have a future athlete?) and Logan thought this was the best thing ever. They "wrestle" together and Logan can ALWAYS make Mason laugh, especially when Mason is throwing one of his temper tantrums, which are more and more frequent these days. Everyday when I drop Mason off in his class first, Logan has to get Buggie a toy and give him a kiss on his head and a wave goodbye before he goes to his class.<br />

Logan will always run to Mason to try and get him to calm down or give him a toy, or food, Food normally works to calm him down. Ha! Logan always wants to "match" Mason if they have clothes or jammies that are the same, he loves it. I told him the other day:<br />
Me: Logan, you have to always protect Mason ok?<br />
Logan: Ok mommy, if someone is mean to Buggie, I am going to kick them in the face!<br />
Wow, ok buddy didn't mean for it to be that violent but you get the picture, he loves his baby brother.<br />

I picked Logan up from school yesterday and his teacher said she witnessed the sweetest thing between Logan and Mason. Out on the playground, a little boy made Logan cry (this is very out of character for him) and he was inside a playhouse crying. Mason heard him from the other side of the playground and crawled (yes, still no walking yet) over to the fence and put his little hand through to reach out to his big brother. They sat and held hands and Mason calmed Logan down. His teacher said they sat like that for a good 10 minutes. My heart overflowed. <br />
I have such a big love for these boys and my heart is so happy they have that same love for each other. Not all the time. Sometimes Mason will hit Logan or Logan will get annoyed with Mason. But they will have that brotherhood bond their whole life. I just love these sweet, sweet brothers.<br />

Mason is 13 months old (ironically same exact age Logan was when we first left him overnight) and Mommy and Daddy had not had an overnight stay in over 2 years. Being a parent is amazing, but sometimes, we deserve a night out with no responsibilities. <br />
We went over to my parents house on Friday and Mason was being so good and playing like he always does. Saturday morning we headed out and Mason still seemed fine. <br />

We headed out of town and stopped and ate at a diner and had the best pulled pork tacos I have ever eaten! We got into Austin and were just hanging out catching up at my friend's house. They have a sweet chubby cheek 4 month old named Danica and I definitely got my baby fix!<br />

We got a call around 4pm that Mason had fever and had thrown up a few times. So the first night we leave him, he gets sick, go figure! Well he got plenty of snuggles from my mom and the next day we picked the boys up and they were fine. Mason obviously had a virus, but nothing we could have done about it, so we stayed and went to the shower. It was really fun (well I tried to have fun considering I knew my baby was sick!) and I only got one picture from the shower, and it was not even with the bride to be! Oh well. I got to catch up with lots of friends and have some adult conversation.<br />

It was a "House divided becomes a House United" theme so everyone was in UT gear or Aggie gear. The bride went to Texas A&M and the groom went to that other school. :) The guy in the middle of the picture is my best friend that we have been friends for over 15 years and it was great to catch up with him and his wife and meet his sweet baby girl.<br />
<br />
We made it home the next day and Mason seemed miserable. Took him in to the doctor on Monday and she just said he had a virus. So he stayed at home with Mommy on Monday and Tuesday and got LOTS of snuggles and kisses. He still isn't 100% but seems to be on the mend. <br />

It is nice to have a night once in a while but oh how I miss these boys! </div>

WAYYYYY overpriced. I could think of so may things my family could do (or a bill I could pay, buy the boys new clothes, groceries...) for just the price of admittance into Santa's Wonderland. It also makes me sad to think about the families that would love to go and have a good time but just cannot afford it. We were thinking about going to the Lights of Tejas this year since it seems way more family/price friendly. They also have a "pay what you can" night and I think that is very generous since it is Christmas and everyone is already broke. <br />
<br />
I told Bryan the ONLY way I would ever go is if we got free tickets somehow. Well, we actually did. We have a very close friend's dad who works for Appel Ford in Brenham that donates all the trucks for the hayride so he was able to get us tickets. <br />
<br />
I thought if we got free tickets we can pay to park, so we spent $15 to park. Which you have to do online in advance and have to pick your time slot. Lots of folks driving up did not know this and they had to turn around. <br />
We walked into Santa's Wonderland at 5pm. It was crazy. SOOOO many people. I do not do well in crowds so I was already starting to feel itchy. Logan wanted top ride the train (and it was free) so we did that first. Then we found out how long the wait for Santa would be (3 hours...holy moly) so we decided to skip that. <span style="color: white;"> </span><span style="background-color: red; color: white;">Cue meltdown from Logan. </span><span style="background-color: white;">This will be a reoccurring theme as the night goes on. </span><br />
I thought that we better stand in line for the hayride before it gets late. Good thing we did. We waited in line about 20 minutes (that was already too long for Logan) and by the time we were at the front it had circled all the way around (my guess would be about 45 minutes to an hour wait). I just cannot imagine waiting that long with little ones. <br />
We went on the hayride and yes, the lights were beautiful. However, if you go every year, they have the same lights. I mean, maybe they add things but I am pretty sure they are the same lights. And the weather was ok for us but what if it is cold or rainy? That would be terrible for people. It was more fun to drive through with your family and look at the lights. No getting out of the car to stand and wait in line. BUT they did away with that option <strike>to make more money</strike> because the frontage road would get backed up.<br />
After the hayride we got off close to the bouncy houses and slides and Logan said he wanted to do that. Great, it was free. Slide and bounce to your heart's content. That lasted about 15 minutes and he was done. Off to the pony rides and petting zoo (which are not free) $5 for a 2 minute pony ride and $4 to feed animals that most of them did not want food because kids had been shoving food in their face all night. I digress. It is for the kids right? Ha. <br />
After that, people were literally everywhere. It was a madhouse. I just wanted to leave. Logan saw the roasting pit where you could roast marshmallows and after I found out how much marshmallows were, I would have brought a bag of marshmallows and stuffed them in my purse. <span style="background-color: red; color: white;">Cue meltdown. </span>Nope, next.<br />
We saw the big snow globe and Logan wanted to take a picture. We stood in line and found out you have to reserve a space and the next one was after 10pm. Sure I will be here with 2 kids on a Sunday night after 10pm. <span style="background-color: red;"><span style="color: white;">Cue meltdown.</span></span> Really?! Nope, next.<br />
We made our way back to the front and we got to see the snow and Logan thought that was so fun. <br />
It was getting late and with so many people, lines, whiny/hungry baby and 4 year old, we decided to head out. <br />
All in all, I was so grateful for the free tickets. Would I ever go back? Not unless we got free tickets again. If we would have paid $80 (Bryan, Logan and I--baby was free) to get in, I would have been VERY disappointed. Not worth it at all. We spent 4 hours there and most of it was in lines or finding out wait times were too long. But people pay it. People go every year. We heard this couple behind us taking about that they had a 3 hour drive home. That blows my mind.<br />
<br />
I really am not trying to sound like the Grinch here, but it would be nice if Santa's Wonderland did some sort of half price night or paired up with a charitable organization (Toys for Tots) and gave discounted tickets. I know they need to make money since they are only open for about a month, but to me Christmas is about family. It is about giving. It all seems so commercialized to me.<br />
Logan had fun, but would have been just as happy if we piled in the car, drank hot chocolate, listened to Christmas music and drove the neighborhood around looking at lights. <br />
<br />
Santa's Wonderland, A Texas Christmas Experience. It was an experience, that is for sure.<br />

When Mason was born in December I knew he had to have a winter ONEderland theme, it is so cute!<br />
<br />
This past Saturday, most of our close friends and family braved the yucky weather to help celebrate Mason turning one. The one thing about planning a December party is, well, most people are out of town attending other holiday parties. But we had a great turn out. Especially for it raining buckets ALL. DAY. LONG.<br />
<br />
I had lots of fun making all of his decorations. Although I think my house will have glitter in the carpet forever. Most of them I can re-use for Christmas decor so it all works out! However, I cut out so many snowflakes I might not want to see another one until next Christmas!<br />
<br />
We kept it simple with a hot cocoa bar with marshmallows, white chocolate chips and whipped cream for toppings.The kiddos loved putting all the toppings in the cup, most had more toppings than hot cocoa! I baked all morning and we had sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies, snowman mix and cupcakes to go with the hot cocoa. <br />
<br />
I had planned on making fake snow for the kids to have a snowball fight in the backyard, but the weather did not cooperate, maybe next year!<br />
<br />
It was a great party and I am so glad Mason made it until after presents and his cupcake to melt down and need a nap!<br />
<br />
We love you sweet one year old boy!<br />

<br />
Mason is our sweet, smiley man. BUT will anger very quickly if he does not get what he wants. For the most part he is very calm, low maintenance and pretty easy. His belly laughs and his sweet baby curls make our heart melt. I was trying to think of our family before Mason and I just can't, he makes our family whole (well...for now.....)<br />
<br />
LIKES:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Standing up</li>
<li>Dancing (which consists of bouncing up and down or head banging which is pretty adorable)</li>
<li>Crawling...FAST. He also wants to go into every room and explore and gets VERY upset when we close the door. </li>
<li>Wave bye-bye and clap his hands.</li>
<li>Putting anything and everything in his mouth.</li>
<li>Giving kisses (well mostly just opening his mouth and leaning his head towards your mouth) </li>
<li>His paci (he really only wants it when he is sleepy) </li>
<li>Bath time with brother.....he is so happy in the bathtub. </li>
<li>To be destructive! Any toys are blocks that he plays with he throws and knocks over, little bulldozer! </li>
</ul>
<br />
DISLIKES:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Being changed. He screams to his little hearts content and we try to change him quick but sometimes getting jammies on a sticky little body is hard!</li>
<li>If we take a toy away from him that is he not supposed to have (we are TRYING to not have you choke, kid!) </li>
<li>Being put in "baby jail"....or the pack and play as most people call it. Logan likes baby jail better. </li>
<li>Being held/rocked (yes, this hurts my heart.) Only when he is really sleepy he will let us rock him. </li>
<li>Shoes (will try to kick them off) </li>
</ul>
FOOD:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Goldfish crackers/ritz </li>
<li>Cheerios</li>
<li>Applesauce</li>
<li>Cheese sticks</li>
<li>Yogurt </li>
<li>Kraft mac and cheese. We are shells and cheese people and he does not like them!</li>
<li>Chicken</li>
<li>Avocado </li>
<li>Baby food (third foods) </li>
<li>Bread </li>
<li>Donuts (yes he tried some and wow gobbled them up!) </li>
<li>Pancakes/Waffles </li>
</ul>
<br />
NICKNAMES:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Buggie </li>
<li>Bugs</li>
<li>Chunky (when he actually WAS chunky)</li>
<li>Kumquat </li>
<li>Little bubba</li>
<li>Bubs </li>
<li>Baby </li>
</ul>
<br />
Mason weighs 24 pounds and has 4 teeth (2 bottom and 2 top). More are looking like they are popping through the surface. He is in a size 3 diaper and wearing mostly 18 month clothes. <br />

We decided on a "super hero" theme since Logan is on a super hero kick. He originally had picked out Batman, which would have been a little easier since we already had the mask from his birthday party, but the last minute changed his mind to Captain America. <br />
We had already called Mason "baby Hulk" since he was born so naturally, he had to be the Hulk. <br />

We went trick or treating and Logan had a blast! The combination of the excitement, wearing a mask and it being a little wet from rain did not help that he fell down twice. He dropped all his candy and screamed "I don't like trick or treating anymore!" After a few tears and him being dramatic, we kept going. We went by a really spooky haunted house and most of the kids would not go up to the door, but our brave Captain America did it with ease! He was always so polite in saying "Happy Halloween" and "Thank You" to everyone he got candy from. <br />

After the kids buckets were so full they could barely carry them, we headed back to the house. Logan actually had more fun handing out candy to all the kids walking by. He was actually yelling at them to come over to the house, it was pretty funny. <br />
Baby Hulk was easy breezy and just hung out the entire night. He was perfectly content in the stroller. <br />

Mason is growing up so fast I can hardly get a chance to jot things down!<br />
He is loving baby food and real people food.<br />
He has one lonely tooth at the bottom that popped through around 9 months. He loves to scoot around like an inchworm and has not yet crawled up on his hands and knees. <br />
He does not like to be changed. He loves to blow raspberries, it is probably one of his most favorite things! Mason just adores his big brother. Logan can do no wrong in his eyes. And Logan still LOVES to love on Mason. Not sure how long that sweetness will last, but I am soaking it up. He also loves bath time with Logan. Logan can make him laugh more than mommy or daddy. <br />
He is SUCH a happy, squishy, lovable little guy. We love you to the moon Buggie!<br />

<br />
Pink eye hit our house a few weeks ago and it felt like it would never leave!<br />
Logan brought it home first, then gave it to Mason, then mommy, then daddy. <br />
Mason also gave it to another baby in his class and his teacher! I was so ready for the pink eye of 2015 to be gone! Pink eye is super contagious and we were using hand sanitizer and washing our hands it seemed like always. And I was yelling at Logan "don't touch your brother, don't touch your eyes. just don't touch anything!"<br />
After about a week, we were back to normal. My poor Mason had it the worst of everyone. <br />
Although his eyes were crusty and he could barely see, he was still my happy little guy. mostly. At the same time he was also fighting an ear infection. My poor baby.<br />

While we were on the mend, Logan thought it would be a GREAT idea to have a picnic at the park one Sunday. It was actually really nice weather and Logan was pumped we were eating outside. He said it was the best day ever. :) </div>

<br />
I get it. I have kids now. <br />
<br />
How can you be so happy that they are growing up but so sad at the same time? Me and time need to have a talk. It needs to slow down, just a bit. Let me soak it all in. Let me hold them a little longer. Let them be little. <br />

I was in Target the other day and saw all the school supplies and it hit me like a ton of bricks. My throat started to swell. That will be us next year. Logan goes to kinder NEXT YEAR.<br />
<br />
It did not help that I was also in the baby section and was looking at all the cute onesies and realized that Mason is in 12 month clothes (all they had up to was 6-9 in the particular outfit I liked). He is also slowly loosing that baby smell. <br />

Conversation with Logan:<br />
Me: <b><span style="font-size: large;">Don't grow up.</span></b> Don't ever leave me.<br />
Logan: I have to. I have to go to work. But I won't leave you. I'm going to marry you and you, me, Daddy, and Buggie (Mason) can all live together forever. (I kind of wish this actually would happen).<br />
Me: Sounds good to me. <br />
Logan: Well I already told Mackenzie (little girl in his class) I would marry her, so I can marry both of you.<br />
Me: Well I am already married to Daddy. <br />
Logan: Awww man, well you can be married to both of us.<br />
Me: OK buddy. I love you forever all the way to the moon.<br />
Logan: Well I love you all the way to the rocket ship!<br />

There are some days when I definitely get frustrated and lose my patience. But then there are the sweet moments I never want to let go of. <br />

<br />
<b>Weight:</b> 16 pounds, 9 ounces<br />
<br />
<b>Clothes:</b> put away all the 3-6 and had to get the 9 and even some 12 month clothes! He wore a shirt the other day Logan wore at 13 months :) He is just the "big" little brother!<br />
<br />
<b>Diapers:</b> We moved up to a size 3 around 5 months<br />
<br />
<b>Diet: </b>I exclusively pumped breast milk for 6 months (which was SO hard, but SO happy I made it to that point!). Once I hit 6 months, I dove into my freezer stash which took up most of our freezer. At one point My goal was only to pump until I went back to work at 10 weeks, but I kept on! It was so time consuming, but saved us money! He had his first taste of formula this month, I *almost* made it to the 7th month mark. I am still pumping a little bit, only enough to make one bottle a day. Hopefully he takes to formula and we wont have any problems. Then I can ditch the pump. He also started baby food this month. We tried at 4 months, but he just did not seem ready. He has loved everything we have given him! He gets a fruit for lunch and a veggie for dinner. He is like a little bird and opens his mouth as soon as he sees the jar or the spoon. He has also tried yogurt which he loves. We tried to give him eggs and he made a yuk face and spit them out. He still eats about 5, 6 ounce bottles a day. <br />
<br />
<b>Milestones/firsts: </b>He has done SO much this month! Rolling over, laughing (and squealing) baby food, loving tummy time, sleeping in his big boy crib (ONE night of letting him CIO and that is all it took!), sticking out his tongue, sitting up pretty much on his own, still a little wobbly. He went swimming for the first time and just loved splashing around in the water. He is also holding his own bottle pretty good, still needs some help. Reaching for EVERYTHING and pulling it to his mouth! Lots of drool, but no teeth as of yet. <br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Health: </b>He got a bad rash on his next when he was almost 5 months old. We thought it was the result of not being able to hold his head up very good. But the rash turned worse and we took him in to the doctor. She said he had developed a yeast infection and prescribed some cream. We slathered the cream on twice a day and his neck got worse. Then the rash spread all over this little body. Back to the doctor we went and she put him on antibiotics. A full month later, we still have to make sure his neck is always dry. Even a little moisture and it flares back up. He also had cradle cap, which he had when he was a newborn, but it went away after some treatment. For the most part, he is very healthy! Must be the breast milk. By this point with Logan, we had already been to the doctor several times for cough and fever. <br />
<br />
<b>Likes:</b> We call him our smiley guy! He smiles all the time, he is such a happy little man. Most everyone can make him laugh and smile, but he gives the biggest smiles to his big brother! He likes his bouncer and all his toys. He will just play independently (which is nice when I need to get things done.) He likes food! We say the only time he really gets mad is if he is hungry or REALLY tired. We have nicknamed him "the Hulk" because his cry is more angry than sad. He likes to be held and rocked. But when he is overly tired, he just wants to be in his crib or be held. He also loves the baby sling. He likes to be facing out looking at everybody. We have not used the stroller hardly at all. With Logan, he hated the sling and loved the stroller. Funny how kids are so different!<br />
<br />
<b>Dislikes: </b>Not much! If he wants to be held he gets mad if you put him down. Also if he sees a bottle or baby food and you do not feed him right them, he will let you know. Hulk Smash! Logan loved the swing. Like I am talking taking naps in the swing up until he was 15 months old! Mason is not a fan of it. He will go in it, but will not fall asleep there. He would rather be laying in his bed or be in our bed for naps. He has also gotten to the point where he is a little roly poly trying to change his diaper has become more challenging since he wants to roll everywhere. <br />
<br />
<b>Misc: </b>Cannot believe he is 6 months old, time is just flying! He is such a sweet happy baby. Logan still loves his baby brother so much! I love to see the two of them together, my heart is so full. <br />
<br />
And now...lots of pics....<br />

Logan's 4th birthday party was this past weekend and it was great!<br />
<br />
Logan has been into super heroes for a long time and picked out his birthday theme this year so we went all out. Logan decided he was going to be Batman, Mason was "little batman", Mommy was Wonder Woman and Daddy was Superman. Halloween costumes this year.....check. Most of the kids came with their favorite super hero gear and it was awesome!<br />
<br />
It was pretty low key. Snacks, cupcakes and a bounce house. The weather stayed overcast all day but did not rain. <br />
<br />
I really enjoy (well, the end result) decorating and letting my creative side come out. I had lots of fun with this party. Months of making decorations, they are up for a few hours and then they get thrown in the trash! Oh well, they turned out better than I thought and everyone loved them. For snacks I made:<br />
"Thor Hammers"-pretzel sticks with cube cheese<br />
"Fruit KaPOWS"-Fruit kabobs of pineapple, strawberries and grapes<br />
"Krunch"-Chips<br />
"Pop"-Popcorn<br />
"Hulk Power Punch"-Lemonade with green food coloring<br />
<br />
We were going to do a piñata but opted for just goody bags instead. The new Avengers movie comes out soon so I found lots of super hero things! Sheets of stickers, fruit snacks and a candy bracelet and the bags were good to go!<br />
<br />
We had masks for all the kids and their cups had different super hero names on them. They thought it was fun and played like they were super heros the whole time. <br />
<br />
Everyone had such a fun time and after everyone left Bryan said it looked like an explosion of fun happened in and outside of our house. That was about right! Logan said it was the best party ever! That is all that mattered :)<br />

We blew up some balloons and put them in his room and he got to open up his present. The movie Big Hero 6. He loves Baymax and was very excited!<br />

Since the next day was Easter, we decided to have his Super Hero party (per his request on the theme!) a few weeks later. Saturday was all about Logan and we let him pick all the meals that day.<br />
<br />
<br />
Breakfast: Pancakes. This boy would eat pancakes everyday is we let him.<br />
<br />
Lunch: Chi-Fil-A! That's right. He pronounces it without the "ck" at the end of "chick" and his favorite are the "bumpy" nuggets. I have no idea why he calls them bumpy nuggets. <br />
<br />
Dinner: Pizza. Nothing <strike>better </strike> cheaper than a $5 Hot N Ready!<br />
<br />
I made him a Funfetti cake which he "helped" me make. Needless to say, we did not eat great on Saturday, but Logan felt special. <br />

Logan is the funniest kid. This is by far my most favorite age. He is so imaginative and loving. But stubborn and knows how to push his boundaries as well!<br />
He loves to watch movies. He loves his little brother. He loves to play with his trucks and reading books. He loves to "help" me clean. He does not want our help with anything, wants to do everything himself. He is not a risk taker. It takes him a while to warm up to strangers and new situations. <br />
<br />
Food: He still loves all "kid food" Hot dogs, corn dogs, chicken nuggets, peanut butter and jelly and macaroni and cheese. He likes "square cheese", poptarts, eggs, bacon, golfish crackers, fruit cups. He has also expanded his pallet to grilled chicken,sausage, beans (some), and still no green ANYTHING. His all time favorite breakfast is pancakes. He requests it every morning. And I think the kid would eat bacon at every meal. We are going to try really hard this year to get him to eat more veggies or at least try them. We will see how that goes. His favorite places to eat are: Chick-fil-A, Whataburger and McDonald's (which he calls "Old Macdonalds). He will always say he wants a happy meal, not a sad meal from that place. <br />
<br />
We headed to the doctor for his 4 year check up. He has NEVER been a fan of the doctor. He was in and out of there so much when he was little. At his 3 year check up, he was better, but still leery. He got no "owies" at that appointment so that was great. However, not the case when they turn 4. We did not tell him he was getting shots either. He would have had a full blown meltdown. He weighed 38 pounds and is 3 ft, 6 inches tall. He is going to be a tall boy! They checked his hearing and vision which was perfect, he thought it was fun to put the headphones on. He did very well talking to the doctor. Then she left and the nurse came in and he knew what was happening. He cried of course, but all was well in the world when the nurse came in and gave him a sucker and a superman sticker. Then afterwards we let him pick where we would go eat lunch. He picked "water-burger" and got his favorite, a bacon cheeseburger!<br />

I really cannot believe he is 4. One more year at daycare, then he goes to kinder! Which we have to figure out soon. I have some schools in mind that I want him to go to and it is not the one we are zoned to. So we might be putting our house up for sale like the end of this year. Fun. But that is another blog post some other time.<br />

Logan, buddy, you are such a sweet and caring, yet stubborn and silly boy! We love you so much!<br />
Super-hero party is on for this weekend! Can't wait to hang out and celebrate with friends and family. We will be taking him to see a Monster Truck jam in Austin next weekend, so that will be fun!<br />

<br />
Our roly poly man is already 4 months old! We went to the doctor with the 2 kids in tow, Logan for his 4 year and Mason for his 4 month check up and shots. Mason weighs in at 14 pounds, 9 ounces and is a strong healthy boy! He does have a flat spot on one side of his head, just from laying in the same spot and not liking tummy time. The doctor assured us it would round out. We try to move his head while he is asleep to the other side, but nope, he will move it back. Working on more tummy time and putting him in the jump up will help as well. He took his shots like a champ! Cried for just a bit and then was over it and back to smiling!<br />

Eating: 5 ounces of breast milk every 3-4 hours. Sometimes he will take 6 or 7 ounces on occasion. My goal was to pump for 4 months! YAY! Now on to my next goal of 6 months, I can do it! We gave him rice cereal the other day and he was pretty much over it and was like give me my bottle already! So I am going to send some to school and see if he will take it there. And the rolls. They go on for days! I love all his chubbiness!<br />

<br />
Sleeping: Like a champ! He HAS to be swaddled though. Our routine is bath, bottle, bed. Sometimes this means he is swaddled in the crib at 7:30pm. He does still wake up around 4:30am, (he wriggles out of his swaddle) and I put him in the bed with us. Sometimes he goes right back to sleep. Other times, he is hungry. <br />

Likes: He likes to be held still and rocked. I love it, but sometime we have to put him down and he hates it. We have had a few "cry it out" nights and boy does that hurt my heart! He eventually calms down, but that boy has some lungs on him! He likes mirrors, as all babies do. He will smile so big if he is looking at a mirror. He loves big brother. Logan is usually the one that can get him smiling big. He is smiling ALL the time! He has been dubbed by Bryan as our "smiley guy" We would hardly get any smiles out of Logan at that age. He will coo and make noises and blow bubbles and we have heard a few giggles but no laughing out loud just yet. He enjoys his bath and kicks and splashes. He likes the swing when he is sleepy. He likes to pull his blankie up right by his face. He also has a little bear he has grown pretty found of when he is sleepy. <br />

<br />
Dislikes: Being put down on his back. He always wants to be sitting up like a big boy. He still has a love hate relationship with his pacifier. It will sooth him, but if he looses grip....his world has ended and he lets us know about it! He does not seem to enjoy the bumbo at home, but they tell me at school, he likes it.<br />

<br />
Doing:<br />
SMILES! He has been giving us the biggest smiles and it melts my heart! "Taking" more and more, little coos and noises here and there. I am waiting for him to laugh, it is coming soon, I can tell! Holding his head up pretty good, but it is hard work. We put him in the bumbo chair to see, but he did not last very long.<br />
<br />
Likes:<br />
He loves when we change his diaper because we have a mirror over the changing table. He loves laying there and smiles big. Eating! He is still eating every 3-4 hours, 5oz. I am still exclusively pumping (I honestly do not know how I have made it this far!) so I have to keep up with his demanding eating habits. But so far, we have not supplemented any formula. He is now sleeping through the night. And by that I mean we can feed him at 11pm and he will sleep until 5:30am. The other morning he woke up VERY hungry and gulped down 7 oz! My big boy! He loves riding in the car. He has a little mirror and he will just look at it and make funny faces and stick out his tongue. Logan laughs all the time at his "silly face" brother!<br />
<br />
Dislikes:<br />
Not a fan of tummy time. We try, and he can stand it for a while, then gets mad. Sleep. I mean he likes to sleep, but when we put him down at night, he will fight it. We have swaddled him a few nights and that seems to work. He will wake up around 3am and be fussy, so he snuggles with Mommy. He is also in a love-hate relationship with the paci. It seems to soothe him, unless it falls out, then his world has ended! He gets so worked up about it that it is very hard to put back in his mouth. So maybe Mommy and Daddy have a love-hate relationship with the paci!<br />
<br />
<br />
We put away all the 3 month clothes and have moved up to 6 month ones. He seems to be growing very fast! We think he maybe weighs about 14 pounds. He is still in a size 2 diaper. His hair has all fallen out, except for the back part (which just looks like old man hair!) and it seems to be coming back in, but very light, peach-fuzz. So we have another little "baldy" and that is ok with us! He looks more and more like Logan everyday, just more round and rolly. He got a nasty cough this month from big brother of course and all the nasty daycare germs I am sure. Other than him coughing, he is pretty happy!<br />
<br />
He is getting so big so quick, we love you Buggie!<br />

<a href="http://www.babycenter.com/popularBabyNames.htm?year=2015">Top baby names of 2015</a><br />
<br />
I was shocked to see both my boy's names in the TOP 5! We never wanted to name our babies "popular" names, but, yep, there they were. Mason at number 3 and Logan number 5. I guess I will have to come to terms with there will probably be kids in their class named the same as them. However, in 2011, Logan was #10 on the list and in 2014, Mason was #6. Still in the top ten. <br />
People probably assumed we got their names from a baby name website, but we didn't. <br />
<br />
When I was little, I used to play with a little girl down the street from us named Lindsey. She had the cutest, blonde, blue-eyed baby brother named Logan. He was seriously the cutest baby ever. I mean up until I had my babies, of course. I made up my mind right then (I think I was 6 years old!) that if I became a mommy to a boy, his name would be Logan. Fast forward to the year 2010 and we found out we were pregnant. In my heart, I knew it was a boy and so did Bryan. We were eating at a restaurant and I wanted to have names picked out. I told him I liked the name Logan and he agreed. He also liked it because that is the name of Wolverine (and if you ask Bryan, he will tell you we named him after Wolverine....NOT true.) We decided it would be Logan. <br />
Not long after that, we went out of town to Houston. We saw the "Mason Rd" exit. I immediately said, that I liked the name Mason too. Bryan did too. But we liked Logan a little bit better. But we both agreed if we ever had another little boy, his name would be Mason. <br />
<br />
So there you have it, that is how we came up with the names of our boys. <br />
<br />
We never had any girl names picked out that we could agree on. We tossed around a few:<br />
Victoria--Bryan;s favorite, I did not like it.<br />
Katelynn<br />
Vivian<br />
Lillian<br />
Madelyn<br />
Ellison<br />
Karleigh<br />
Kamryn<br />
Cora<br />
Bella<br />
Quinn--this is my absolute favorite. If I EVER have a girl (yes, we are SAYING we are done having kids, but things can change!) this would be her name. Now getting the husband to agree on it would be a different story. The Parks Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01361637798186982768noreply@blogger.com0
