favorites according to mason

in order to capture these memories i have started "interviewing" mason. i love looking back and seeing what he was into or what his favorite foods were. i have been so busy wrapped up in everything dental hygiene that i need to pause and make sure to capture the "moments"
so, a few of mason's favorite things....

• his junk. that's right. typical boy. constant reminder that "pee pee time" should not be done in public (still new to this whole boy concept so any words of wisdom is appreciated)
• LOVES him some movies. in particular Cars 2, Bugs Life, and all Toy Stories. Either he watches these A LOT (i will admit, he kind of does) or this kid has an amazing memory. can pretty much recite the whole movie (on all of them)
• obsessed with hot chocolate and "special milk" aka choc milk
• loves "chicken pot pie" and broccoli and burritos
• our nightly rituals consist of: bath, teeth brushing, prayer (we alternate who says it), a story, and at least 3 songs. Sometimes books are swapped out for the story
• LOVES the monkey bars
• puzzles
• singing his own made up songs (which is pretty adorable)
• writing his name as well as the alphabet and he is learning numbers (pretty smart lil man)
• and... shaking his "booty" yup especially when we go out to dinner
• only wants to wear shirts w/ animals or figurines on them (seriously this is a fight some mornings when getting ready for school... so much for only having that problem w/ girls)

love this kid with all our hearts.... can not believe he is almost 4!!!!!

oh and add to the list the fact that he has to go to bed with about 50 "snuggles" all tucked in
