Birthday Wishes became Birthday Stitches

This weekend was pretty hectic. On Friday Mason was in our house while I was working and long story short he was pressing all sorts of buttons on the remote and the static noise came on so loud that I started to walk back to the house. When I walked in Mason gave me the remote and as I started walking to the tv we stepped in front of me and tripped over my feet. He fell into the dining room chair and I could tell it hurt him because it was a very loud hit to the head. His head was down towards the ground and I was reassuring him he was ok. When i bent down to pick him up I turned him around to face me and then the blood went rushing. I had blood all over me and on the floor. Luckily my boss was home and I ran upstairs to the main offices and asked him to cover the office for a minute. I ran into the bedroom where Parker was and cleaned him up and then we realized he needed to get stitches. My boss was so nice and finished my shift while we took him to the ER. He was as happy as could be in the waiting room but then we had to put him in a "papoose" which strapped him down so he couldn't move. Parker watched the Dr. give him a shot and I couldn't stand to look. Then I hear Mason yell, "Mommy!" and thats when I was like, ok Katie you have to be strong for your son, and I went over and stood right by him so he could see me while they stitched him up. Overall he was a very good boy and he wasn't even screaming because of the pain, it was because he was being held down. I love Mason so much and am so proud of him. He is so strong, smart, and very loveable. I know he is always going to be looking out for his Mommy, so I wanted to give him a fun birthday party. Saturday was his party we went to the zoo, and both his grandmas went in together to get him a wagon. He loves it and could play with it all day. We had fun at the zoo with Mason's cousins and with Parker's and my family. After we had a picnic with that included more of Mason's family and friends. Another accident to add to his birthday was he got a toy truck and he thinks you ride it like his other one, but really its just for play. Well he was sitting and trying to ride on it at the park and it toppled forward on the sidewalk so then he added the scrape across his forhead! What a boy, tomorrow when he gets his stitches off I am probably going to be reported to Child Services! Anyways we had a fun weekend and I cant believe my little boy is two! Its gone by so fast, but I wouldn't trade anything. Mason is everything to me and brings the biggest joy to my life. We love you Mason and thanks to everyone for coming and for the gifts. The party wouldn't be the same without you guys!
So the first pictures are just funny because we put Mason down to bed and he found the diaper rash cream and got it all over him. He was gresed up like a pig! The last pictures are what Mason looks like right now. FYI- I do not beat up my kid!

Sleepy Head

This kid is the funniest little guy! He has been pretty bad at taking naps now that he is older, if he does take a nap its a good day! For the most part he doesn't and by time 6:00 rolls around he is so tired. In fact this was just a last minute dinner of pizza which is Masons favorite. Parker was not home yet and so it was kinda a dinner all on everyone own time. I was watching some t.v. while Mason was eating and Parker called to tell me we were leaving right when he got home and to be ready when he got there. So I yelled "Mason lets get your shoes we got to go see daddy!" Usually at that time he is out of his seat and running towards the door. I turn to see why he wasn't coming and then I found this cute stud.

This was how he was first found, and then he started doing the head nod thing (you know when someone is falling asleep in church and you can see them catching themselves dosing off). He was so tired he couldn't hold it up anymore. I have the funniest video, but yet i still don't get how to get it on my actual computer.

Mason is showing us his body parts.

Last week Parker's sister Whitni got married to Jason in the Salt Lake Temple. She was such a beautiful bride but honestly I took like no pictures that day besides these few. The day was perfect and we are so glad that Jason is apart of the family (and i am not the only in-law now!)

My two cute boys!
