21 month check up (is there such a thing?)

21 month check up for Mason.... I know I'm a bad mom, I skipped on the 15 and 18 month immunizations so I thought I better get him in!
Here are his stats at 21 months:
Height: 34 inches
Weight: 29 lbs
Head Cir: 19 inches
He was in the 75% of both height and weight - so he isn't that big of a boy!!! The dr was concerned that he isn't talking or saying more 2 syllable words. So we are taking him to the audiologist on Tuesday to get his hearing checked. I really haven't been too concerned with this because I've been told boys take a little longer and he's able to follow commands when we tell him to do something. Hopefully everything is okay and he will start talking soon!

Mason pees in the toliet....

Well after he peed on his truck, then the carpet, then on the bathroom floor and finally we made it on the toliet! Boys are much different than girls - he had it flyin everywhere!!! He's been wanting to sit on the toliet a lot lately so hopefully this is a good sign and we can get this kid potty trained. He'll probably be potty trained before he's talking :)

We had an AwEsOmE christmas - the kids are at a fun age and they were super excited to see what Santa had left them! We were all spoiled this year for some odd reason... My parents and Kirstin came over to see what Santa had brought the kiddos and then we started making breakfast for the crew! We had both families over to eat and then Teri, Joe and the kids and Robbie stayed the afternoon. We played Guitar Hero, watched movies, visited, ate turkey and played with all the toys. I was beat by the end of the day...we were all ready for bed!
Brooklin got her pink camera with 2 buttons, Hannah Montana guitar hero, leapster games, kung fu panda, shoes, clothes, pop up tent castle, laptop computer (aunt teri), too much stuff!
Mason got a tool bench, fork lift truck, fridge magnet thing, clothes, shoes, cars, doodle board, play animals, too much stuff!
Nick got Motley Crue tickets, Oakleys, clothes, shoes, and guitar hero for the wii!
Steph got spoiled - I got my camera and ipod the other night, a gift certificate to Buckle and Robert's. I also got the wii fit from my mom and dad - now i might have to actually use it!
We had a great Christmas and we are so thankful for everything we were blessed with this year. It's been fun spending time with family and visiting - we have definitely ate way too much food this week!

*cookies and milk left for Santa and an apple for Rudolph*


*Christmas jammies - went with the penguin theme this year*

Christmas eve we headed out to Arizona and ate dinner with Nick's sister Teri, her family and Robbie. We had some yummy tacos and visited and took turns rocking out on the rock band game! It was pretty fun and quite comical trying to sing! We headed home to open our christmas jammies, set out cookies for Santa, leave the magic key on the front door and try to get 2 kids asleep! Brooklin was still awake at midnight and she kept coming out to check on the cookies to make sure I wasn't eating them! Silly girl :)
Cute things Brooklin has said getting ready for Santa: (this is for more for me so I will remember)
*I was going to the store and asked if we needed anything and B said, "Mom buy an apple for Rudolph cuz those are his favorite.
*I asked B what we should leave out for Santa to drink and she said "Milk." I said what about a Coke, Santa loves Coke. And she just laughed and said, "No mom, he only drinks milk."
*We have to remember the magic key so Santa can come in.

We had our little Winters party Sunday night. Kasey, Meridee & Jackson are headed north for Christmas so we partied before they left. We had a great dinner as usual, opened presents, had dessert and called it a night! We were spoiled again and we all made a haul! Mason opened this dinosaur first and didn't care about anything else, he LoVeD it. Brooklin just wanted more and more, she knew what presents had her name on it and she wasn't going to let Grandpa forget any of them. Santa came early for me and delivered a Nikon D60 camera to me along with a purple ipod nano. I got spoiled for sure!!! We also got a tv for our room, digital photo frame, a new wii game and a bunch of other stuff! We want to ThANk everyone for everything... mom and dad you went out of your way again this year to make it so fun and special! We LoVe YoU... Now Santa can skip our house and we can sleep in - yeah right!

2nd Attempt on Christmas Outfits


I consider this a successful picture! Both kids in the same pic, not fighting and somewhat smiling :)
