Pirate Party!

Yesterday we had the boy's joint birthday party! It was so much fun! We had a pirate come and do a magic show, make balloon animals and do silly dances with the kids. They all seemed to love it! I definitely enjoyed doing their party together and will probably try and do it that way for as long as they allow me to! Here are some pictures from our day!

Connor's birthday and the Perot Museum!

Last Friday was Connor's birthday! I'll write a 2nd bday post for him soon but wanted to post some pictures from his fun day! I'm doing a joint birthday party this year since their birthdays are so close together and the same friends would be coming to both parties but we still wanted to do something special for his actual birthday! Jared took the day off and we went to the Perot Museum! It was fun for a while until we made Connor stop playing with some blocks in really liked. Let's just say we experienced his first terrible twos tantrum! LOL! Here are some photos from his special day! 2K4A8971 2K4A8979 2K4A8982 2K4A8981 2K4A8999 2K4A9002 2K4A8996 2K4A8989 2K4A8992 2K4A8984 2K4A8985 2K4A8976 2K4A8993

Quotes from Mason :-)

I'm sooo behind on this blog. :-/ I've have so many pictures to post but just haven't had the time! I've wanted to write this post for a while and am finally getting around to it. Over the past few months, Mason has been telling us the most cute, hilarious things. I've started writing them down in my phone everytime he says them since I know it's something that I will love to go back and read. He told me today that I have to stop writing them in my phone or he will stop saying them. Hmmmm..... Well for now here are some of my favorite things Mason has said lately!

day26





"Mommy all of the time I will protect you because monsters are pretty strong but I am stronger!"

"Mommy I didn't give you a hug today so I need to do that right now!"


" I don't just like Connor, I love him!"

"All the time don't be scared if you are camping and see a coyote because all of the time super Mason will show up!"

"Mommy if anything scary shows up just call me okay?"


Me: "Mason you are so big, you need to stop growing." Mason: "I can't that's just how it works!"

Flexing muscles "If your arms are shaking that means you're really strong!"

"Connor is not any strong. So he can't get any bad guys but he can get pretend bad guys or toy bad guys!"

"Connor's the goodest guy in my life"

"If any kitties or dogs are stuck in a tree, I will climb up the tree and save the kitty or dog because that's just what I do."

" I got to get the bad guys because that's my job to protect Connor."

" Mommy do you want to go camping? Sometimes it's creepy but that's just how it is cause it's creepy when you're camping."

"Mommy all the time you got to watch out for things that spray like skunks because you don't want to be stinky!"

"Mommy I don't forget things because I think in my head really hard."
