July 2009

Here are some things we did/learned in the month of July:

• Bought a new mower that blows bubbles for Mason since he only had 2 out of the 4 wheels attached on his old mower.
• My parents and sister came for a visit to watch fireworks and help us with our basement construction.
• We held a multifamily yard sale in our yard. We were able to sell a lot of things and now our basement is open and free for more junk. :)
• Anything stacked in a pile is considered a fire by Mason. This includes shoes, blocks, all wood, shredded cheese on his plate, piled up toys, and mounds of dirt.
• That we have a great friend named Bryan that missed his family so much that he took Mason for a night so that Reese and I could have a date night. Thanks again Bry!
• The only thing that Mason loves more than pancakes with syrup is pancakes with syrup in the shape of a truck or airplane.
• Mason has a popcorn bowl and in order to get ready to eat popcorn, he MUST put the bowl on his head before the popcorn comes out of the microwave.
• Mason loves the camera! He finds it, takes it to one of us, says "Cheese" so you can take a picture, and then says "Wanna see" so that he can see how good he looks in pictures.
• Bedtime is really at 8:30 and you sleep in your own bed but when Dad is in charge sometimes the rules get bent and you go to bed at almost 10:00 in Mom and Dad's bed with Dad.
