Happy Birthday to my baby! He's 2!

It's a roller coaster of emotions as my youngest gets older.  I am really enjoying his little personality.  He has so much spirit and attitude you would be entertained by him all day by following him around.  From the second he wakes up he yells, "Wake! Mom, I wake!" That never gets old and is sure to start your day off right.

For breakfast he loves bananas and eggs.  He eats most of his food during breakfast.  It slows down after that.  At his 2 and a half year check-up he weighed 23 lbs.  He is tiny.  Mason adores his siblings.  He is getting to the point where he will play all kinds of games with McCoy. They play so well together.  Mason gets all sad when the kids go to school.  He asks about them all day.

How big is Mason???

Mason was in no hurry to open his presents.  It was driving Cohen nuts!  But really, he has the cutest little voice.  I get compliments on it all the time at how he uses his words in a sing-song way.

We hit the jackpot when we got you this bike for your birthday.  You LOVE it!  You scoot all over the house and out the door!

Mason loves his Grandpa so much!  He runs to him and gives the biggest bear hugs.  When he is having a sad day, he wants his Grandpa to hold him.

Birthday selfies are the best!

Dear Mason,

You, my little friend, are like no other.  Some days I think I might pull my hair out with how demanding you are, but you finish up with the cutest, "Love you's."  Testing your limits for sure.  Your favorite show of all time is Mickey Mouse.  Your most favorite thing to do is ride your 4-Wheeler.  You look so tiny on such a big machine and you shift your weight down so you can reach the pedal.  When we leave the house I have to hurry and put you in the car before you get on the 4-wheeler or else I have to chase you down the street on it.  You don't like to come back!!  One day you figured out that you could go around the block so that is often where you are when I can't find you even though you KNOW you are supposed to stay at the house.  Many neighbors watch for you and will bring you back.  You are an independent little man.  You love your brothers and sister so much.  You bring out the love in all of us.  I am so glad you are a part of our family.  I love you to the moon.

Love,
Mom
