Our INTENSE 3 year-old continues to test our patience and entertain us at the same time. Good thing he is so dang cute. Here are some of his latest sayings and doings:
When put on the timeout chair recently, he lost it, hitting and kicking the chair and spitting at it while yelling "bad chair, bad, bad chair!" Apparently it was the chair's fault he was naughty?? We just tried to keep a straight face. Hilarious!
"Hey, where dat baby at" and "where's MY baby!" Still obsessed with his sister.
"You're rude!" he yells me all day when he doesn't get his way. And "if you say another word mom, I won't be your best friend." Then he tells me he loves me at least 3 times a day as well so that makes up for it (most of the time).
When I'm feeding the babe, he pulls her blanket to a point over her head, "I want her to be a jedi."
He says all the time: "okay, whatever..."
When you ask him why he doesn't go to school anymore (yes, he's a preschool dropout), his many responses:
"I have to take care of my sister because mom doesn't
know how."
"because it's dumb"
"because I'm too little, I will go when I'm REALLY big"
When the elf on a shelf came to our house and we explained he would get coal if he was naughty, he responded with a crusty look on his face: "Oh yeah, well I will spit on the coal!" And clearly the "elf is watching" threats are not working, when he hits his brother he tells us "the elf was looking the other way." He has it all figured out!
While out to lunch with friends awhile ago, he attempted to walk out of the restaurant with a sharp steak knife shoved in his belt loop - apparently his Peter Pan sword needed a replacement. The weapons obsession continues...he sleeps with his light saber and cuddles up with it like a teddy bear. He watches the original Star Wars movies daily and acts out the parts with his guys, repeating all the lines. He knows ALL the characters but not his ABC's. Guess we need to work on that :)
Mr. Mason constantly entertains and loves to TEASE, putting on one of many masks whenever anyone comes to the door. In fact, if mom or dad walk in the house and he doesn't have his trooper or Darth Vader mask on in time to "scare us," he has a melt down.
He is actually kicking and screaming and rolling on the floor as I type this. No surprise. Oh the joys...I love him dearly and pray for PATIENCE daily.

Oh Mason Mason Mason!!! Brek I really don't know how you do it. I think there is a reason we haven't been sent a boy....Don't think I could go through with that every day! Oh but reading this put a smile on my face and I couldn't help but laugh just a little! Love that little Mason. Good luck with your Mason Madness!
He is so horribly wonderful! You hate to stiffle such a lively, rambunctious spirit. I love that he is so intense. The jedi blanket thing kills me!!! And he's right about preschool, it is pretty lame if you really think about it. I love him! Keep posting the crazy stuff that comes out of his little Jedi mouth.
