So it has been over a month since my last post... I have been extrememly busy at work and can't get the desire to come home and sit at my computer to blog! I have just spent the last hour catching up on everyone elses blogs, and now it is time to get my blog caught up! Sine the last post Mason had his first birthday party... what an event! I have to thank my mom and dad once again for letting us have the party at their house... there is no way that all of those people would have fit in our house! I guess that is what happens when you have a very LARGE family! Mike made a comment to me during the party that there were "a lot of people here" and I looked at him and said, "Well it is all family... and mostly yours!" Dispite all of the chaos it really was fun and Mason enjoyed himself along with the cake... well I guess I should say cupcake! He had a full cake for his 1 year pictures that I had taken, so I figured he did not need another!
Mason is now walking full speed... I don't know why I was so excited for him to walk becasue now he wants to walk everywhere... including the Mall and Costco the Saturday before Christmas, just a few people to manuver around! He has also discovered my tupperware cupboard... not only does he pull everything out of it, he climbs inside of it! (See pics in the slideshow!)
I put up our Christmas tree after much hesitation... worried that it would be more work keeping Mason away than it was worth... Mike won and I put up the tree! However, smarty pants kept pestering me to put the tree up because he had bought me a present and wanted to put it under the tree... however, he hid it in the garage with the Christmas decorations! So needless to say I found the present... what a surprise! Mason has taken off all of the ornaments at the bottom of the tree... but has only broken one of the glass bulbs!
For my moms birthday wish, she wanted to go see Christmas lights with the Kids! We chose to go to the Zoo Lights, rather than downtown! Besides freezing our butts off, and taking Mason out with a 103 degree fever... it was a good time! They did a really cute job of decorating and we even got to see some of the animals awake! Mason loved the carosel, I think that was the only time that he cracked a smile the whole night! He is finally feeling better and has fully recovered from the ear infection, that took two times to the dr. to diagnose!
The last even to date worth blogging about was the visit from Santa yesterday! My cute Uncle Don dresses up as Santa every year for the kids and delivers presents. Mason did surprisingly well, at first it was a little sketchy, but by the end he was doing better. I only have a few pictures from the day, I am waiting to get more from Grandma Cher... she came with her new camera and was the photographer! She only took 778 pictures in a little over an hour! Those of you who know her this probably does not come as much of a surprise! Thanks for coming up! It was great to have you there!
Hopefully now that the open enrollment season is coming to an end I will be better about keeping my blog updated! No guarentees though... just wishful thinking!
And by the way... if there is anyone interested in a German Shephard let me know! I am ready to kill my dog right now! He has been crying outside the entire time I have been working on this post and he is right below Mason's room where he is sleeping!

Oh Kate he is so cute! I would love to take your family's pictures. Good idea on after the holidays. Call me anytime, and will set it up. What is it about tupperware that kids just love, Olivia is the same way.
