Play Ball!

I'm playing t-ball again this year.  But...bad news folks...I ended up on Team Longhorn! I know right? What luck.  The team isn't so bad. Nice coach, a few of my buddies are on the team, but Longhorns?  What was the coach's kid thinking???


Mommy loves and supports me, but will not be wearing Longhorn gear you can bet on that! But don't I make Longhorn gear look as cute as humanly possible? :)


My lucky number, 11.


Getting excited about this "out"




Max and Mason cheered me on too, but in Aggie gear of course! (who can blame them?)



Speaking of playing ball, in the middle of our t-ball tournament, we had to jet over to the soccer fields for our end of the year soccer lunch.  We REALLY liked Coach Cody.  I hope he is my coach again next year.  He was the best. 



Coach Cody made us hot dogs.



Here's Gaven getting his trophy.



My trophy




This is Coach Cody telling Max that he ordered Max a trophy too.  Because even though Max wasn't on the team officially, he was a big help to the team.  Aww....



Texas Tigers!


Did I mention Coach Cody is a Longhorn? I guess they're not all bad!

How Is Mason Already Two????

April 30 marked Mason's second birthday.  That's hard to believe.  Seems like he just got here.  And yet, we can't really imagine our world without him.  He has really let his personality shine this year.  No more easy going baby.  Now he's right in the thick of things with me and Maxer.  He's tough and asserts himself when he needs to.  I think he says "NO" almost as much as Mommy and Daddy.  But he also gives awesome hugs and kisses.  Love you buddy!



We've been moving to our new house, so we just did a small party this year with just the Mitchell cousins. 




How fun is it that this is JUST my cousins (on one side)???? We had a great party, even though Mason wasn't feeling 100%.


Happy Birthday Mason.  I can't believe you are no longer the baby!

Mason's First Haircut

Mason was the only bald baby of the four of us.  He also made it the longest (by many months) before it was hair cut time.  But you might have noticed from that Easter egg hunt post that it was DEFINITELY hair cut time for all of us!  So we took over our local Sport Clips to do hair cuts, Mitchell Men style.


 Mason was not okay with having his hair cut!



He did not like it one bit. 


Look, we took over the whole place!


Still not loving it.


They gave him a football, and things started to look up. 


Here I am all cleaned up.



Is that the hint of a smile I see?


Ah, we look like Mommy's sweet little boys again. 


Maddox wanted in on the action (not really, but I requested a picture holding him so Mommy made it happen). 


Then we celebrated with a nice Mexican food feast!


Cheers for Mason's first hair cut. Two days shy of his second birthday!

Easter Eggs

On Easter Sunday morning, we got all gussied up for church.  Look how dashing we are!



Mommy and Daddy had big plans to take Maddox to his first church service on Easter Sunday, but look what happened!



So, Mommy and Daddy spent Sunday morning in the ER, and Pepaw took us to church.  Luckily they got back in time for the big egg hunt! We had a blast hunting eggs. Here are a few shots from the hunt...














Happy Easter 2012
