They sell some of the cutest kiddo stuff around- and they do fun contests! You seriously can't find a better company around... Though I am partial to BabySteals :)

we kinda like him.

Mason is such a little character. He never ceases to find some new way, to crack me up. Right now, he loves Despicable Me. We can turn it on, and he will cuddle up in the Love Sac, and watch the entire flick. (Which makes it pretty much our daily morning movie, so Mason stays happy while the parents get ready for work. It's bliss.) We think the Minions are his favorite. He gets the biggest grin whenever they come on.

He also LOVES to play. And, he thinks everyone around him is his personal jungle gym. He climbs, crawls, jumps, dives-- everywhere. Once he finds his way to your lap, don't be surprised if he is dragging a book around with him. A Sparkly Christmas Eve is his favorite at Nana's house. He will dig to the bottom of the pile to find it- every time. He's a smart cookie- and we don't mind having him develop a reading habit early :)

This kid is a ton of fun-- and a total handful. But after a year of having him around, I think it's official. We'll keep him.
