Introducing a non-bruised Mason/Pete (whatever you want to call him)

Okay since I am not great at updating this is at least something. Mason had to be on the lights for 4 days so the poor guy was banished for almost a week to this terrible bed. But truth be told I think he kind of liked them because he always seemed really relaxed.

Both Cooper and Payton love to hold the baby.

Kolt has always liked blankets but he now LOVES whatever blanket Mason has. Whenever I am feeding Mason guaranteed Kolt will come over and try taking his blanket. All in all though Kolt is doing so well and I think he has already forgotten that Mason was never here.
part of the reason i never blog is because i can never figure how to get my pictures on and arranged cute. so sorry it is an ugly layout i just hate spending the time making it cute.

Yep just one shy of a basketball team!

Mason Pete Redd

1.7.10 8lbs. 19in
It took a while for us to come up with a name, but this was our compromise. Everyone is doing really well. As you can see Mason was pretty bruised he is getting better everyday we will post more pics soon (yes soon not in 10 months)

MORE ALASKA

Here are a few more pictures

ALASKA

So Christian and I were lucky enough to go to Alaska on a cruise with his family (celebrating his parents 49th wedding anniversary). Let me tell you we had a blast. My mom and dad were good enough to keep the boys (I'm not sure if they had as much fun as we did). We hit Skagway, Juneau, and Ketchican and ended in Vancouver BC I think I could have spent a whole week there alone. Here are some highlights from the trip, enjoy!

Thank Goodness it isn't the Swine flu

So I always feel so bad when my boys get sick, and we got hit with the flu. Cooper puked Wednesday afternoon and then was sick the rest of the day, Payton acted great.
Thursday Cooper had diahrrea the poor kid sharted twice and didnt' know what hit him. We put a pull up on him and he felt way better about that so his underwear wouldn't get dirty. Payton still acted fine.
Friday Cooper woke up at 4:30 and puked, Payotn woke up at 6:30 and got in bed with us, by 7:00 he was puking and has basically puked everyhour since then and it is now 1:30.
I have to say even though it sucks to be so helpless when they feel like crap some cute things have happened. Payton and Cooper both are champs at making it most of the time to the toilet. One time when Payton needed to throw-up I stepped away and came back to Cooper standing behind him telling him he was okay and that he would help him. It was so cute.
wish us luck at the sick house!

Sledding

We went sledding down Old Main last saturday and they boys had a blast. The baby and I stayed in the truck most of the time (I did participate for a few minutes). The boys were seriously so cute. Click on those to see them close up they are cuter that way!

Kolt Hardison Redd

So the name is decided "Kolt Hardison Redd". If you ask Cooper he will tell you his name is Berkley. Before we knew if he was a boy or girl Cooper really liked Berkley. The last couple of weeks he remembered that name and that is what he is calling him. We remind him everytime that Berkley is a girl name and we had a boy and his name is Kolt. The boys just want to love on him all the time.
