The Happiest Baby I Ever Did Know

Mason is such a happy boy! He rarely cries, and when he does it is usually more of a protest than a true cry. I couldn't have asked for a sweeter baby boy!

Getting tickles from his Grandma Jepson

 Mason loves his jumperoo...he loves it even more when daddy jumps along with him!

Being tickled makes this boy go nuts! I could listen to him giggle and squeal all day! (And I usually do!)

This picture is just cute. He loves being in his Bumbo...as long as he can chew on the straps of the buckle. And this picture shows how much hair he finally has!

Except for the back of his head...there is none...except for the mullet at the bottom that still hasn't fallen out from when he was born.

We love Grandma

"A grandma is warm hugs and sweet memories."

Indeed, she is. And we love her!

Another Day..

I have been blog crazy this last week, but I don't care. I have taken way too many pictures and have to get them posted before I get behind.

An afternoon with Mason:

I was making cookies and desperately needed him to be a happy boy (he still doesn't feel the best so being happy wasn't likely). I took off his clothes and put him in his highchair. I then covered the tray with pears and put puffs in the pears to get them soggy. He then spent a good 15 minutes playing in the pears and eating the soggy puffs!

When he was all done with the pears (and a biter biscuit) he was covered from head to toe in goop. However, I was not done baking cookies so I just gave him some toys and teething rings to keep him busy.

By the time I had taken the last batch of cookies out of the oven Mason was one tired (and filthy) boy.

I decided to just give him a bath in the kitchen sink. At first he thought it was great.......

 ..............

....then came the meltdown. He was done. Ready for a nap.

 After a nice long nap my happy baby was back!

When Mom isn't around...

I stumbled across these pictures on Brad's ipod...

I love these two!

He is truly a boy...holding his big giant toy on his lap to play with it.

Grandma's #1 Fans!

Bob and I surprised our Mom with pictures of her favorite little BYU fans! Such cutie pies!

These two pictures absolutely crack me up - Mason pulled some priceless faces!
