Playdate with G

Once a month Mason's best friend Greyson spends a Saturday with us while his Mama goes to work. I absolutely love these days & look so forward to them because for 6 hours my child is entertained by someone other than himself, Shane or I. 

Those of you who have only 1 child know what I am talking about. Unlike a child with siblings, the parents are the ones that end up being their childs' playmate. They are the ones who they play games with, puts puzzles together with, plays with Play-Doh & colors with. As much as I love spending time with my little man it sure is nice when he is distracted by a friend for 6 hours time :) I can get a whole heck of a lot done in 6 hours time without distractions.

And I love watching the two of them interact together. They love like brothers & sometimes they fight like brothers & sometimes it makes me sad that Mason is an only child. They have SO much fun together, love spending time together & to see their different personalities come out are fun to watch. 

Greyson is a shy, timid, hesitant, quiet little guy. A follower. My kid is the outgoing, wild, ready & willing, loud little guy. A leader. So to see the two of them interact & play together is fun to see. They are a good balance together & I can't wait to watch them grow up & experience life together as they get older.

Today was a gorgeous day outside so we took advantage of the nice weather & did some playing outside. The boys went cruising to the park in Mason's truck, they blew bubbles on the front patio, played with Play-Doh, had their favorite Mac-n-Cheese for lunch & then went swimming.

We absolutely love Greyson & our play-dates with him & look forward so many more in the future!
