WARNING...

Mason just got his 2 month shots yesterday. He weighs 11 lbs already!! He has been really fussy from the shots. So if you come to our house un-announced today you're likely to see Eli like this!

Check out these socks! I've been spring cleaning and I think he salvaged them from my DI pile. But, I can ALWAYS count on Eli to make me laugh when I'm feeling the stress of a fussy baby! How I love my boys!!

this melts my heart...

Well last night I was super excited to go with one of my friends to a scrapbook club. I really needed the break and the night out. I had to take Mason because he still thinks he needs to eat every hour or so. I thought he'd be good and just sleep..HAHA, right! Well he was super fussy and it took me FOREVER to get my page done. But, I still had fun and when I see this I suddenly remember what is most important!

My favorite 2 (and a half) year old

Tomorrow Eli will be exactly 2 and a half.He loves to tell people that he is 2 and a half. :) I feel like most of my blogging lately is of Mason, and because I was preoccupied with school on his bday, this is just for him! I thought I would post some of his likes, dislikes and favorites.

•Favorite shows: Elmo’s world, Blue’s Clues, and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

•Favorite foods: Mac and cheese, ramen noodles, rice, chicken, fruit smoothies (maybe this is why I craved them when I was prego), apple and orange juices, and oatmeal.

•Favorite toys: action figures (he refers to them as “dudes”), balls, trucks, and animals.

•Favorite songs: Itsy bitsy spider, ABC’s, and I am a child of God.

•Favorite animals: fish, monkeys, dogs, and cats.

•Loves brushing his teeth, wrestling with dad, kissing/holding Mason, making cookies with mom, and playing with his cousins at his grandparents houses.

•Loves being outside (we can’t wait for it to warm up, but he loved snow too)

•Potty-trained quickly after we brought Mason home.

•Loves bath time.

•Doesn’t love having his hair cut or washed.

•Loves having his friends over (he asks me every day “friends come over?”)

•Funny sayings: orange (sounds like arn-ge), yeah sure yeah, hice cream, hode it, hode it (as he’s running to the potty),"Now I know my ABC's next time woncha sing wich me"! "I'm going to boom it!" (when he is shooting something with the nintendo gun) he seriously is so funny, I can’t think of all the cute things he says because he is always talking and it’s all so cute!!

•He is a very good big brother, he’ll tell me “Mason waking up” before I even hear him and no it’s not because he’s waking him up. He loves to rock him, hold him, kiss him, hug him, and tries to help me bathe him and change his diaper. He will be so excited when Mason is big enough to wrestle.

New pix

I had Mason and Eli's pictures done last week and I love how they turned out. Only problem is deciding which ones I want to frame :) I can't believe Mason is already a month old. Time seems to just fly by.

Mason's first bath...

He didn't really love the bath especially when the water got anywhere near his face but it's worth it to have a baby that smells good :) Plus he looks so cute in his towel!

introducing the newest Holfeltz family member...

Here we go finally (3 weeks later) some pictures of Mason Red Holfeltz.

techinal difficulties

Sorry I haven't posted any pictures of Mason yet. I really want to but every time I try to upload pictures all it puts up is letters. If anyone knows how to fix this I'd appreciate the information. Until then, I'll just be saving for one giant post when I figure this out! :)
