Labor Day Overview

It was a busy weekend.  What else is new?  There was an Arkansas Razorback Football game.  Woot Woot.  We looked better than I expected.  I had two friends in town and my brother is also in town, so our house was full the whole time.  Sunday, we had a semi relaxing day by the pool.  It was great because Mason almost always takes a nap from 1-3 or 2-4 and so Michael, Gabby, and myself spent the afternoon swimming and I did some sun worshiping with sunscreen 50!  I got some cute pictures of Mason playing with these festive pinwheels my mom brought up.  Of course, they ended up in his mouth.  That’s where everything tries to go at this point.Trying to eat both of them at the same time.This picture makes me happy, because somewhere there is a baby picture of me with this same look.  I saw this and thought he does belong to me.Always smiling.Jumper toy is still his favorite.  They tell me at school he would play in there one all day if they would let him.Monday morning, us and several of our friends went on a hike to a waterfall.  The best part was…everyone survived.  That’s the goal when taking 5 kids under 3 hiking.  Mason had a blast! He spent the entire hike just looking around and checking everything out.  He was so quiet we almost forgot he was with us.  Once we got to the waterfall, Mason started talking and jabbering.  It was fun.  It was like he was saying this is so cool.Mason’s girlfriend.  Checking to make sure we are all coming up from behind.Mason giving me the stink eye for taking photos.Our friend and Mason’s girlfriend (her daughter) laughing and enjoying the hike.Me with that same precious little girl who is also my god-daughter.
