Thumb-Sucker!

I think we may have a "thumb-sucker" on our hands!

Bounce with the Cousins

Caitlyn

Mason went to Bounce yesterday afternoon with his cousins Addyson, Brooklyn, Caitlyn, and Jackson. They had so much fun jumping and running everywhere. I didn't get a picture of them all together, but here are a few to share!

Story Vacation

Bradley, Mason and Hanna had fun learning how to play Chinese Checkers with Nana. Mason really didn't get the hang of it, but loved playing with the marbles. Maybe next year he will grasp the concept a little better!


The dump truck, sh0vels and buckets were the biggest hits with Mason. He pushed the truck for hours and dug many buckets full of sand.

Roasting marshmellows on our last night.

This past weekend we went with Scott's family to Port Aransas. We had a blast playing on the beach, at the pool, playing games inside, roasting marshmellows and much more! The trip down was a little rough, but once we were there the kids played and played and played. Mason was so tired when we got home that we put him to bed at 7:30 last night and I had to wake him up this morning at 8:40 because we had to take Hudson to a doctor's appointment. We can't wait to do it again next year!

6 Months Old!

Can you believe my baby is already 6 months old? The time has flown by with baby Hudson. We had his 6 month check-up yesterday and I just wanted to pass on his new stats. He is one big, healthy boy!

Weight: 17 pounds 10 ounces (50th percentile)

Length: 29 3/4 inches (95th percentile)

4th of July

We spent the past weekend in Round Rock with Scott's family. We went swimming, ate LOTS of good food, took pictures with cousins, saw friends, and played. It was a busy weekend but so fun! Hudson played inside where it was cool most of the time, while his "older" cousins and brother played outside at Nana's house.


Mason and Bradley drove their Jeeps all over Nana and Papa's yard, down the slides and crashed into everything in sight. Oh what fun these boys have together!

Charging on with his Jeep.

We went to watch the fireworks in Cedar Park and it was a zoo! We parked blocks and blocks away from the park where we watched, but it was worth it once we got to our final destination. Papa bought light sticks for all of the kids so they had a blast waving and swirling with their sticks waiting for the show to start. It was after 11 when we got home, but they all enjoyed it. Even Hudson was mesmerized by the flashing lights and loud booms from the fireworks. It was an action-packed weekend full of fun and memories!

Firefightin' With Uncle Adam

We went to Round Rock to visit Scott's family for the 4th of July weekend. Scott's brother, Adam, is a fireman in Cedar Park so we decided to take the boys to see him at the Fire Station while we were there. Mason loved the fire truck, especially when Uncle Adam let him drive and talk on the headset to Daddy. After he drove for quite a while, Mason and Uncle Adam sprayed the big water hose out in the street and "washed" one of the other firemen's car. At the end of the tour, Mason and Hudson both got their own fire helmets and other goodies. Thanks, Uncle Adam, for a wonderful afternoon!
