Our little Gardener

Daddy & Mason working hard!

As mentioned many times before Mason would live outside if he could! This past weekend the weather was beautiful so we spent HOURS outside. Mason is learning (knock on wood) to stay in our yard so we figured it would be safe to start pulling  weeds while still keeping an on eye our little guy.  This project was amazing! Mason got really into digging in the dirt as well as filling up the bags with weeds/acorns and other debris. This project kept him close by and he had little interest in wandering off. He had the best time and we were able to get something accomplished. Win win for everyone. Matt and I don't have a green thumb or a ton of interest in gardening so Mason totally gets his love for "gardening" from his grandma Jean (Matt's mom).

This extremely fun activity didn't end with weeding at our house. Mason enjoyed shoveling dirt out of my parents' planter and filling up a grocery bag of dirt with the neighbor kids. The joy of boys; dirt everywhere. I'm slowly getting used to the amount of dirtiness that ensues in one day...I repeat slowly!
