SO MUCH TO SAY!!!

Warning: this will be a LOOOONG one!
Bridgette has really started up with the imagination! I love it so much. She tells me that the big bad wolf or the wicked witch are trying to steal her "goodies" so she is hiding them somewhere for "safe keeping". Hilarious. She also "grrrrrs" at the witch to get her to go away. Too funny. She loves to tell me stories and read what she perceives a book to say or mean. She labels EVERY character as "he's nice" or "she's mean". She also really gets going and talks out of the side of her mouth. She bobs her head like she really means what she is saying, but she will catch my eye and grin, as if she knows she is being really cute. :) Her favorite stories right now are "The 3 Little Pigs" "Goldilocks and the Three Bears", "Jasmine (Aladdin)", "Beauty and the Beast", and "Llama Llama, Red Pajama", and "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Adventures". We read them over and over.
Something hilarious she said this week: Her daddy had just woken up and was a bit groggy. He came into the living room and sat on the couch. Bridgette was so excited to see her daddy was awake and said, "Let's go to the playroom!!". Travis said "Honey, let daddy sit down for a few minutes and wake up." She quickly responded with, "There is a couch in the playroom you can sit down on." So needless to say, he got up and took her to the playroom. Too funny.
A few nights ago, Bridgette, Mason, and I were sitting on the couch watching "winnie the Pooh" and Bridgette was snuggled up to me, Mason on my lap, and Bridgette was holding Masons hand. Precious moments.
Something else Bridgette is doing is dancing a lot and gallopping around and jumping. I really hope to catch this soon on video as it is something I desperately want to remember her doing. It is so sweet and genuinely joyful.
Ok on to Mason:
He is really working his tongue around and wants to talk so badly. He watches his sister talk and he just tries to make words to tell her something back. He is also trying very hard to sit up. He pulls himself easily if you hold his hand and he just leans forward constantly. He is developing the sweetest and calmest personality. However, he can really belt it out if he is upset. It's strange to see him be so calm 90% of the time, but then scream bloody murder if he is upset. Our family has a minor cold at the moment, and he screamed something terrible this AM. I could not believe it. This has been his first cold, and for this, I am so thankful.
He is still sleeping about 5-7 hrs straight at night, with a terrific nap in the daytime, 2-3 hours. He sleeps more of course, but those are the long stretches.
I keep hearing about these babies and children who love to be in the car. Where exactly are these children???? My sweet son screamed at least an hour of our drive each way to Nashville this weekend for Mal's bachelorette party!! I got a girls night out this weekend- went to Spaghetti Factory (fabulous), then out to the Wild Horse Saloon for a little line dancing and live music. I truly had a fantastic time out with my 2 sisters and Mal's friends. Travis watched baby Mason and Mimi Kay had Bri. It was great.
Mason is still nursing very often during the day, and really has some incredible toots. I am trying to see if my diet is causing it. Whew. :)
