Sorry to have missed the October post. We will make up for it by posting lots of pictures! Today we are celebrating Daddy's 32nd Birthday! Mason and I made a Strawberry Pop Cake for him that we will enjoy this evening. As for other celebrations....
We will be celebrating an early Thanksgiving/Christmas next week on the Wilkens side. Granny and Papa are looking forward to a house full of company and having holidays at "The Farm" this year. Now, after several days of having 10 grandkids (4 of which are under 2 1/2 yrs.) we will see if they volunteer again next year (keeping in mind they will be up to 12 grandkids by then)!
We found out on October 16th that Mason is going to have a little sister! Mason and Daddy were just certain it was a boy (or according to Mason, a "brother")! I had a "gut" feeling from the beginning that it would be a little girl. Her expected date of arrival is Feb 27th, 2009 (up to 2 weeks early is fine w/ Mommy)! We are planning to name her Taegan Kae.
Mason is growing into quite the little man. He is very busy and is literally talking more and more each day. His favorite play activities are play dough (or "dough play" as he calls it), anything that involves a ball or bat and jumping on his mini trampoline. Movies he could watch over and over are Shrek, The Bee Movie, Madagascar and Alvin & The Chipmunk's (we pretty much have these memorized line for line)!

Give, and you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full—pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, running over, and poured into your lap. The amount you give will determine the amount you get back.
