Holla…

Let me hear ya

Sunday is a day for rest, so no more apologies for the delay in updates, especially on the weekends.  It was a busy and fun weekend and a very good one to be spending time with the family.  Cutler is still avoiding infection, but does have a pretty bad cough and congestion.  He is still vomiting, but I think this might be due to the amount of mucus he is experiencing from his congestion.  So far it looks like it is just a bad cold as there has not been a fever.  Unfortunately he still isn’t sleeping through the night, which makes for some very tired parents.  Aside from the cough, he seems to be doing really well and based on the amount of slobber he should have another tooth or two coming in very soon.

Below are a few pictures from tonight including Mason’s fauxhawk.  He was quite proud…

The Hawk

The bond between the two brothers continues to amaze me.  Any time they are in the same room, Cutler can not take his eyes off of Mason and no matter how fussy he might be if Mason walks over and talks to him he is an instant smile.

Here he just wants a piece of Mason’s hair…

The Scooter Dominance Continues

Granted it is against old folks, but Mason recently continued his undefeated streak in the great scooter race series.  This weekend he successfully blew Papa Herman away and with Nana quickly learned that you ain’t racin’ if you ain’t cheatin’.  Watch how he so keenly knew to push her towards the grass on two different occasions in order to hold her off.  Brings tears to my eyes every time I watch as I am overwhelmed with pride.  Now if he could just take that aggression to the soccer field.

Only Took 11 Months

Mason got a nice shiny new bicycle for Christmas and it only took 11 months before he finally started to ride it.  I was starting to fear that Santa wasted his money, but fortunately on Thursday Mason decided to give it a try largely in part due to his good friend Avery showing him how to do it.  Now we can’t keep him off of it and according to him it is the fastest bike in the neighborhood.  Up until tonight there were actually no falls, but he did take a bit of a fall earlier and you would have thought he broke his leg based on the tears, but five minutes later he was back at it.  Below is a video of his second ride on it.  I think in another couple of weeks we will have to get him jumping off some ramps.
