I had to show you guys my collection of pic's with Mason in his goggles. :o) As you can see from the pic's each pair is a different pair, I don't even know where he is finding all these. It always seems that the girls can never find a pair when it comes time to go swimming.

Marty and I are so looking forward to this weekend. It's our annual Kansas City Nascar race. I haven't left Mason overnight yet since returning from Russia and I'm already stressed about it. He'll be in good hands with my parents. It will be the first alone time Marty and I have had also since returning. Very much looking forward to that time too:o)

COWBOY GOGGLE MASON

GOGGLES IN THE TUB















DRIVING HIS FIRE TRUCK IN GOGGLES

Mason--our little ham! He is such a riot. He is always making us laugh. He loves wearing these goggles all day, haven't had to leave the house with them yet but I'm sure the time will come.

I cannot believe it's been almost 4 months already (14th) that we have had Mason in our home. He is getting to be a typical 2 year old and a handful at times but a joy more times then not. He is really into testing me and has learned what time-out is but I still couldn't ask for a better little boy. He loves to battle. He has become a hitter so we have that to deal with and everything is "mine" and he is very jealous when either of the girls or even Marty are sitting next to me (even our dog Harley), I am his also (my mommy) and Marty and the girls love to tease him by saying "my mommy" and a whole battle breaks out with me in the middle. Mason is such a little talker and loves to repeat everything, even when you don't realize he is listening--not always a good thing. Some of his new words are c-ya, watch, walk, outside, bath, drink, milk, church, book, ready, shoes, socks; to many to mention--he just is an amazing little sponge.

Mason is still going to daycare everyday but hopefully that will soon stop because everyday I take him another day is a deeper injury to my heart. He's only there from 8-3:30 but it should be me teaching him his abc's and 123's. His babysitter is great though and he loves going and being with the other kids.

The girls are doing great. (their going to kill me for putting in the picture). We are in full swing of school and getting into the routine of things. Both are in volleyball this year; Tori school league and tournment. I don't know how she keeps the schedule she does but she loves it that way. Madison is on a tournment team and we get started with that this week. Not really looking forward to taking Mason to volleyball games because they are indoors and we'll be on bleachers were softball was outside and he could run around. We'll see how it goes, he'll probably surprise me like always.

I've got a request of everyone. My sister-in-law Megan is in need of a kidney transplant. She needs a lot of prayers right now and I ask that you add her to your's. Her prayers had been answered one other time 15 years ago when she had a transplant then but her body has now rejected her given kidney. God willing Megan will receive another and my brother Chad and her can once again enjoy the life they created together only 3 years ago. Thank you.

Much love and happiness to all from the Peck's
