Wheeler Farm

A day at Wheeler Farm:










"...And toss it in the oven for Mason and me!"

STUD.






So curious about all the tractors.



 He hated the cows and horses and clung to daddy's shirt when we stood next to them.
He loved the goats and just giggled when they would nuzzle his hand.
He loved feeding the ducks and geese.
But, BY FAR, his favorite part of the Farm were all the tractors! He is a boy.

We will definitely be going back soon!

Mason's First Snow

It is snowing outside! Being a parent makes snow so much fun because I go to watch Mason play in the snow for the first time. He was fascinated with it falling from the sky!


All ready to go outside...keeping that hat on wasn't going to happen.

He was simply mesmerized, this was the only hint of a smile I could get out of him.



After he took his hat off he was so confused as to why his little head was getting so cold and wet.



"Not so sure about my head being wet..."

He was quite upset when I finally made him come in the house. He stood at the back door for another fifteen minutes just gazing up at the snow falling from the sky.
Winter is going to be fun!

Working In The Yard: Part 2

It is finished! We actually have a backyard! Grass, sprinkler system, patio and bushes!

Mason ate mud tonight...he didn't spit it out this time either. He picked up a fistful of mud, put it in his mouth and chewed until it was gone. SO.GROSS.

After he played in the mud for awhile I brought him inside and made him take a shower. Oddly enough, he had more mud IN his diaper than anywhere else on his body.

The boys!

I just love Payton. He played with Mason the entire night and they had so much fun. They could honestly be siblings, they are that close.

I'll give you one guess as to who this muddy little handprint belongs to...

Pizza break!

FINISHED! I have a yard!!

Mason loved the grass, but who doesn't love the feeling of soft grass beneath their feet??

 While the men cleaned up outside the kiddos all snuggled down on my couch and watched Hercules. Do they look a little tired?

I cannot thank my family enough for such an amazing birthday present!! I love my yard!!!

Working In The Yard

My family showed up today to redo my backyard as my birthday present. I am thrilled (to say the least) and Mason was so happy to be outside "with the boys."



They gave Mason a pipe and he walked around with it the whole time he was outside (and brought it in the shower later). He would hit the fence with it, dig in the dirt with it and put it in the wheel barrow. 



I am in love with this picture!



This is the, "I just ate dirt and didn't really like it" face.





After playing in the dirt it was time to wash off in the shower!

I admit it...I am obsessed with photographing my little man.
