All About Mason

This is the story of my Mason *smile*

He is 3 years old, and is still a fireball, just like day one in the hospital. This little man is a good combo of both daddy and mommy. He has the extreme white hair and emotional traits like his Daddy, is tough as nails and stubborn like his mommy (again we blame the Bullock genes *wink*). I found this old picture of Oscar with his sister and uncle when he was 3, can you see the huge resemblance?

Oscar (Daddy) on the right in red tank top. *smile*

There is NEVER a dull moment in our home when Mason is awake. If it's quiet WARNING bells go off and I'm running through the house trying to find him. The minute you turn your back he's into something, either trying to do it 'by myself' or just being naughty. He is a VERY Smart little boy, the kind that is too much for his own good. If I tell him no to something he asks, and he knows he can do it by himself, and I'm occupied with something, he'll close the door to wear I am and try to sneak off and do it anyway. That little turkey, I've finally caught onto that one. We have those annoying child proof door handles on everything so he can't get into more trouble.

Mason's quirks have been lately, 'I do it myself mommy', or climbing the counter to 'pick' his cup. If I tell him it's time to do something he tells me in 5 minutes and holds up his hand, then he says and 5 min (other hand), 5 min (holds up a foot), and 5 min (other foot). It's very entertaining to watch. *smile* He is always asking "What I/we doin tomorrow?" He says "In five days I'm......" or "the next day I'm ...." or "Can I ..... today?" or "OK" All are done with those big brown eyes staring at you and that little boy innocent look, what a cutie. I want to give him kisses and hugs and he pushes away from me. I can trick him though by asking him to kiss my cheek and I turn at the last second and steel one. He laughs, and now it is a game to see who can get the most hugs and kisses. *smile*

He is finally loving preschool again and looks forward to it every week. He asks "Whos house I goin tomorrow?" We get to the house and he tells me he is a big boy, and he walks right in and has a blast! He is also lovin being a Sunbeam and his teacher, He says "I goin see Sis Newby today?" I love pickin him up after class, he is always so excited to see me. Just today he came running out with a big smile on his face "I missed you so much mommy!" Ahhhhhh He is very excited to be a big brother, and is always asking me "Where's Lily?", or "Where's my sister?" I explain to him that she is in mommy's tummy getting bigger, he then says he wants her out. The other day he said "Mommy, can I go in your tummy!" Uhhhh no your to big and you had your turn already. *smile*

He loves his movies and if I didn't pay attention to what he is doing he would watch movies all day. I can not keep any of our movies organized because he feels the need to take them out, stack them up as tall as he is, and then pick the one he wants. We are still trying to work with him not taking the DVD out of its case and putting it in the DVD player by himself. A couple of movies have made it under the TV stand because he has heard me coming and is trying to 'hide' the evidence. One has even been broken, thankfully it was disc two and not the movie one. His favorite movies now are Kung Fu Panda (just ask Jessica), and Beverly Hills Chihuahua or as he says "chickawahwa"

He loves his Grandparents and is always excited for a road trip to Pocatello (Grandma and Grandpa Bullock), or have Moose Grandma (Grandma and Grandpa Williamson) come to our house. He says "Is grandma bring cookies and brownies?", and it never fails she (Moose Grandma) always has something with her. His new love has been playing outside with this brothers, even on chilly days. I get him all bundled up and out he goes, he's smart though he comes in when he gets cold.

One very funny thing he has started lately is the need to be completly naked when he has to use the bathroom, good grief kiddo. Today I heard him hummin, which is the noise he makes while he is concentrating, and I ran to the bathroom because I thought he was shoving toilet paper in the toilet again. But this is what I found.................

He loves to help me with whatever I am doing, his favorite is baking! The minute he hears me get my mixer out he is scooting a chair across the floor up to the counter. He likes stirring the best and of course sneaking chocolate chips (just like his daddy). He has a MAJOR sweet tooth like his Grandma Bullock, if he could stay healthy eating sugar (and mommy would allow it) he would. The little stinker this last week always had a jolly rancher in his mouth and I was confused. I thought for sure I had those things hidden very well, apparently not. I went into my closet and the bag was on the ground I was so mad, I picked it up and hid it better, but he still had jolly ranchers. It wasn't until the next day when I was making my bed I found the stash he had hidden under my bed!! I'm tellin ya that kid is a little smarty pants!

Here's a cute picture I have of him having to do the same thing as his older brothers. This one he had to get in Lil O's sleeping bag just like he had done. What a cutie.

We love him to pieces even though I feel like pulling my hair out. All I have to do is look at him sleeping and my heart swells up and you can't help but love him.

And that's Mason in a nutshell!
