Ceci Kids!

Small Ceci, Medium Ceci, Large Ceci.:) Mason dressed himself that day. How much are you lovin' his outfit. He had on a hat too. It was rockin'!

Do you really think my baby brother will be bigger than me? Sad day! :)

Yah-Yah Sisterhood Club

We the Weidauer sisters and mother decided to start the Yah-Yah sisterhood club.  This was our first big lunch together.  We had to each write down one positive thing about the other sister.  It was so much fun!!!  Brooke made some amazing fortune cookies and put the positive notes inside (so creative).  My mom put her notes in Easter Eggs and brought us all flowers.  Nattalie almost wrote her notes on sticky notes...that would have been funny.  It is so fun to get together like this.  Can't wait till next time!

Mason's 4!

Good Morning! Mason's breakfast of choice, Frosted Mini-Wheats. He could live off of that cereal. He opened his first birthday gift and was very excited to start the party!

Sheriff Mason to the rescue! Mason told everyone he wanted a Big Bam (AKA Gun). Grandma Char granted his wish. It was the favorite gift. Mason slept with it in his bed that night, just in case someone tried to break in. (Just kidding)

It's so great being the grandma!

This is William. He enjoys riding his bike around to various parks, scoping out the birthday parties. He jumps in, gives the birthday boy or girl a high five and proceeds to participate in all the birthday festivities; including playing games, eating, singing happy birthday and even trying to give his old baseball glove as a birthday present. Yes, William had one heck of a time.

"That was one heck of a party!" -William (AKA the Party Crasher)

"The Left Overs!" Parties over folks.:)

Sophie loves her uncle Scotty. He's like a snugly bear!

"Happy Birthday to you!" We had to light the candles about 5 times so all of Mason's cousins could have a turn to blow out the candles.

Mason's favorite things at four years old are:

Movie: 101 Dalmatians
Food: Mac and Cheese
Color: Red
Activity: Play with my friends
Sport: Soccer and Baseball and Football
Book: The Butterfly Book
(it changes from week to week)

Mason's Birthday Party

Dinner Time!

Sophie thought this was helping mommy clean off the table.

So I just thought I would post what dinner time is like at our house (sometimes).  It's not always like this, it was just one of those days. :)  Sophie decided that instead of actually eating her dinner, she was going to play with her dinner.  Mason insisted on grating the cheese all by himself and poor mommy was busy nursing Owen...what could she do, but smile and take it all in.  And just as I was about to scold them for making such a big mess...I crabbed my camera. Share the mess!!  This happened to be a very long day for me.  AHHHHH  life with three!

Lori Harbach's Pictures of the Kids

"Kids: They dance before they learn there is anything that isn't music." -William Stafford
"When I approach a child, he inspires in me two sentiments: tenderness for what he is, and respect for what he may become." -Louis Pasteur
"When God wants a great work done in the world or great wrong righted, he goes about it in a very unusual way.  He doesn't stir up earthquakes or send forth his thunderbolts.  Instead, he has a helpless baby born, perhaps in a simple home of some obscure mother.  And then God puts the idea into the mother's heart, and she puts it into the baby's mind.  And then God waits.  The greatest forces in the world are not the earthquakes and the thunderbolts.  The greatest forces in the world are babies." -E.T. Sullivan

Cousins Having Fun!

Noah and Mason having fun together.  Mason is some kind of handyman in disguise and Noah is a tough cowboy.  These boys have a blast together.  Let's say they keep each other well entertained.:)

Sophie the Rock Star

Sophie is my natural rock star.  Lovin' the outfit, the hair, and setting a new trend...wearing one sock.  This girl's got personality!!!  She loves to sing!

Owen

This is Owen with is cousin, Charli, who is only a week younger than Owen and half the size.  She is a little peanut. Owen is four months old and an amazing baby.  He has discovered his voice and loves making noise.  Owen loves being held by mommy, he loves when you sing to him, and he loves trying to grab things.  We love is beautiful smile and eyes.  He has his daddy's long lashes and his eyes are still blue, but they could change in the future.
