We Love, We Love Sunshine School!

Mason's Sunshine School Program was last week, and it was really fun. The theme was sports, and the teachers and directors did such a great job planning everything. Mason's class was dressed up as basketball players, and they looked so cute in their cut off t-shirts and sweat bands! Mason was really excited about the wrist and head bands. I was also excited because he actually sang. After the program we went to his room where we got his end of the year book (so cute), and then we went to the fellowship hall for ice cream. I'm pretty sad that this is Mason's last year to go to school here. We have really loved being a part of Sunshine School and all of the wonderful people that we've become friends with!

Baby Blessing

Max's Baby Blessing at church was this Sunday, and it was a really special day. All of the babies were given a baby Bible book, a special letter to open on their twelfth birthday, a burp cloth with 1 Samuel 1:27 on it, and a little picture frame with their picture in it. We also received a bouquet of flowers with a special meaning. I cannot remember the exact wording used, but I will do my best. The tall white flower represents the father who is to be the head of the family, the red flower represents the mother who is has given life blood to the child, the yellow flower represents the baby who is as precious as gold, the baby's breath represents the church who supports and protects the family, and the red ribbon represents Christ who holds everything together. Max also went to Bible class for the first time at our church, and he seemed to like it. Here are a few pictures from the day.

As you can tell Mason was being very cooperative for the picture.

Unbelievable!

I was this young man's first grade teacher. Now he is performing on the Ellen DeGeneres Show and his You Tube video has over 11,000,000 views. I knew he had talent then, but it is so weird to see him all over the internet and on T.V. I think it is safe to say that he has moved up just a little from performing at our elementary school. I'm so proud of you, Greyson!

6 Months

I cannot believe 6 months have gone by since Max was born! Time is completely flying by, but we are enjoying every moment with sweet, little Max. You forget how much changes in only a months time. Max loves to talk (his new sound is dada), laugh, and smile. He is super ticklish and has the cutest little laugh when you tickle his feet, legs, or the sides of his tummy. He is also majorly drooling and chewing on his hands, which makes me think he may be getting some teeth. Max is also sitting unsupported some and is starting to move a little while he is on his tummy. He's definitely not in a hurry to go anywhere, though, which is a change from Mason! His stats this time were 16 lbs 2 oz (25th%) and 27 1/2 inches (75th%).

First time to try cereal. He loved it, but his tummy didn't. It was not a fun night!
