7 months!

Mason is 7 months old today.  What a sweet little boy he is.  We love him so much!

Luckily, no shots at 7 months...yay.  Well....I take that back...he does have to get his second flu shot, but at least there won't be more than that!

Poor Mason is teething, and I mean teething!  He has had fever for a week, is drooling tons, and is fussy fussy.  Eating is also a battle with him, which makes me sad.  When we get a glimpse into his mouth, we see a tiny tiny white dot.  Well, Mr. WHITE DOT, poke on through, because you are hurting my baby boy and you are making mommy and daddy go crazy!!  We have had to take him out of school twice now for his fever.  Poor little boy!!!  He also has his second ear infection, so currently he feels all around yucky. 

I say this every month, but what a developmental month!  He is saying da da and ba ba.  And he says it so cute and soft, and sometimes under his breath.  What a doll!  He is rolling both ways finally- the Dr. assured me this was normal, babies do things at all different ages.  He is sitting up like a pro- rarely tumbling over.  He is eating solids about 2-3 times daily, really loving everything we give him.  His favorite is still apple sauce though- but this doesn't surprise me, I LOVE apple sauce.  He is really enjoying playing with his toys and grabbing at anything and everything (and then putting it in his mouth).  He even laughs sometimes after he toots.  Silly boy!

He also had his first Christmas!  He got tons of presents, but like most kiddos, loved the paper more!  He was spoiled rotten by the time the holidays were over, thanks to the fam holding him the whole time.  New Years wasn't eventful- went to bed early, and that was that.

What a blessing this baby is!  We are so thankful that we were chosen to be his parents.




Mason loves his cousin!  They were both dressed as turtles that day! :-)

This is his 6 month picture, but it's so darn cute!

6 month LONG overdue post

Well Mason is almost 7 months old, but I guess it's never too late to post about his 6th month! 

What a developmental month, this kid is Mr. Social!  He loves to be entertained always and is still "talking" up a storm.  He still LOVES to watch Rover, and his current favorite thing is to stick anything and everything in his mouth.  I think he is teething really bad also, because he has been a bit more fussier than normal.

He is in the 25th percentile in weight and 50% in head circumfrence and length.  The dr. was a bit suprised that he wasn't over 17 lbs. yet, but I think that was mainly due him having a bad cough/cold for a week and half.  The poor boy just didn't want to eat.  He got his 6 months shots, and besides his second flu shot, he should be clear until he turns one year old.  Yay for Mason and yay for Mommy and Daddy!

He is now eating solids like a champ!  He currently eats oatmeal cereal, apple sauce, pears, bannanas, carrots and prunes.  He LOVES to eat! 
Here is a picture of him on Thanksgiving (even though his Mimi already decorated for Christmas :-) )

Here is picture of him not liking Santa.
Mason being a cutie!
Until next time...
