IT'S THAT TIME! YIKES!

It's POTTY time!

Mason is showing signs of needing to be potty trained. He realizes when he's about to go and then runs and hides so that he "goes" in private. We bought him a potty but he wont sit on so we're not sure how that's going to work. I'm really nervous about this part of child raising. If anyone has advice please HELP!!!!! I'm open to ANY and ALL suggestions. Wish us luck!

Happy Birthday Mason!

M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E
That's right we had a mickey mouse clubhouse themed birthday party for Mason's 2nd birthday! Mason is a little obsessed with Mickey Mouse right now and had a blast watching us put everything up and make the cake! He was running everywhere! But not quite as much as when everyone got here. He thought it was prety cool that everyone came over to his house to play with him. He was in seventh heaven!
I can't believe that he's already two! It's going too fast and the sad thing is that I know that i have to just hang on 'cause it seems to be going by faster each day!
Here's his specs and pictures of the party!! Wish everyone could have been here to celebrate!
Height: 37 inches--95%
Weight: 32 pounds--90%

A fun and happy halloween!

The Pumpkin Bread Duo!
This Halloween was Ethan very first one and Mason's official first. Since we weren't able to do anything last year due to a family death Mason got to celebrate his first Halloween! He was loving it. At first when we were getting ready and people were coming to the door Mason would actually get mad at us for giving away "his" candy but then he figured out that if he helped hand it out he could get a piece for himself for his bag so then that's all he wanted to do. After a while though he noticed that people were walking from house to house and so then all he wanted to do was "go,go!" So we went out to a few houses (he only had patience for like 6) and then went and trick-or-treated Grandma & Grandpa Howarth's house. He thought he was pretty cool. By the time we got to the last house he was knocking on the door saying "knock,knock" and then trying to walk in! It was fun. Ethan didn't really know what was going on. He passed out by about the 2nd house and slept in Daddy's arms the rest of the time. I think he was enjoying the cool air 'cause his costume was quite warm. Mason was a pumpkin and Ethan was a Wonder Bread Sack.
