Patience is a virtue?

It is fun watching Mason grow up and seeing his unique personality come through

It is hard to tell him to turn his light off and go to bed when he looks so cute

Ever since our trip to Welling, whenever we are working in the kitchen Mason pushes up a chair and wants to help. He helped Kim make some chocolate zucchini muffins. They were delicious!

Our boys love eating corn off the cob

The kids always love playing with slime

This morning Lyza decided she would dress up

So did Nixon. Complete with vampire teeth!

The kids have been making lots of fortresses

When Mason has smiles and a messy face you know he had a good breakfast

All the smoke from forest fires has made things a little more challenging. The kids can't be outside as much. Kim is supposed to be walking but can't because of the horrible air quality.

I guess we are still going to the beach though. Look at Nixon surrounded by girls. Keep it up!

The kids found this huge spider in the back yard

Kim sent me a picture at work and told me it must be killed

It was huge! But now it is dead ;)

These kids have been OBSESSED with these perler beads

Here is an example of their creations

Went to a garage sale and came home with a fire truck!

And a new suit for this handsome boy

These two look like they are having fun together

38 weeks and ready to be done (as I am writing this Kim is now 39 weeks. Come on baby!)

Mason helping me make some waffles for an elders quorum brunch

Lyza is a pro when it comes to word searches

Mason loves to build

Two year measurement for Mason. Just a little shorter than Nixon was at the same age

Mason was teaching me some dance moves

These kids love to craft

Mason pulled all of these jars of apple butter out from under a dresser, lined them up, then touched his nose to the lid of each jar one-by-one. What kind of ritual is that?

Here he is happy to be eating cereal. He ate about 7 bowls this morning!

Maybe the next post will be about baby?
Take care
