Christmas!

Here are the boys on Christmas morning. Mason was so excited to finally open his presents! It was so hard for him to wait!



They got to open matching pajamas on Christmas Eve.



Mason's monster towel...



and monster hands.


The "big one." Mason is obsessed with trains lately, so we got him a train table. After Max set it all up, Mason played with it for 7 straight hours. He wouldn't even take a break to eat, we had to bring his food over to him and shovel it in his mouth! I think it was a hit!


Mason cannot believe his eyes!

5 Months Old!

Archer is now 5 months old! It is hard to believe that he is that old already, but it's true. Things he learned to do this month: crawl (scoot) across the floor, eat solid food, play with Mason's trucks. Mason never struck me as the selfish type, but all of a sudden, if Archie starts playing with one of his toys, he takes it away. We are working on teaching Mason to trade with Archie if wants something. Hopefully this is just a phase, but we'll see.



Archie fell asleep snuggling his banana!



"HO, HO, HO!"



Trying rice cereal for the first time. He actually really liked it and would cry if we didn't give him the next bite quickly enough.



Such a happy baby!



These brothers love each other!


Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving we went to The Ranch. It was a nice relaxing time hanging out and catching up with family.



Here's Max riding "The Skyway to Death." Sound fun?

The Fam



Mason and his mama!

Disneyland!

We went to Disneyland the Monday before Thanksgiving. We had no idea it would be SO crowded! We still had a blast, even though most of the day was spent in line! Mason, of course, loved it and talks about Disneyland almost every day.



He was finally big enough to ride the bumper cars!



Crawling through the tunnel



Archie will eat just about anything!



The much-needed family shots!


The Submarines: one of Mason's faves!

The Beach

We went to the beach while we were in Orange County. This is Mason's favorite thing to do! Here he is playing in the surf with Max.

Fairytale Town

While we were waiting for Max to get out of class so we could drive down to OC, I took Mason to Fairytale Town. This place was awesome! They had all sorts of slides and trains and playgrounds for Mason to play on. He loved it!



Driving the train



Ferocious Lion



This was Mason's favorite. It was a little road for him to run on. The whole time he was running he was saying, "vroom, vroom!"



At first he was too scared to go down the slides (and I couldn't go with him because of Archie), but he saw some older kids doing it, so he finally did it.
