7 Months!

Can you believe that Mason is already 7 months? I am having a really hard time coming to grips with that... it still feels like he should be 3 months. He is trying so hard to get teeth... hopfully soon! Also he is doing this little worm scoot to get wherever he is trying to go! I don't think it will be long before he figures out the crawling thing! Last night we went and bought him a walker... He LOVES it! Now he can roll around on the hard wood and torture Goliath! Watch out Goliath I think that this is just the beginning! Here are some random pics from the last couple of weeks... and yes, I know I am reverting into my old self and not updating my blog like I should be! I had really good intentions of doing it last weekend, and as I sat down at my computer I started blog stalking and before I knew it Mason was awake and my chance to update was over! Blog stalking can become very time consuming! Anyways... here you go! Enjoy:)

Teething cookies... Very Messy... but very entertaining! He sat in his high chair for almost an hour chewing on that thing... when he was done it was straight to the tub!

Watch Out Goliath... I am afraid this is only the beginning of the hair pulling... I speak from experience!

Mason went swimming in YaYa's back yard last weekend... what could be better than a giant bath tub filled with toys outside?

Sporting the new walker... sorry about the shadows he was infront of the abck window watching Goliath outside... this is what he has been doing to keep himself busy while I am working on this post!

WATERMELON!

We discovered today that Mason loves watermelon! He couldn't get enough... it was quite messy but worth every second.



I know I went a little overboard with the pics but I just thought that they were too cute! I am a little bias though!

PS... Barbie this post is for you!

XOXOXOX!

I thought that these pictures of Chaia and Mason were priceless. She just loves him. I think that she is so excited to have someone her size... or close. (For those of you who don't know... Chaia is Mason's cousin!)

Walk for the Cure... or sleep for the cure!

To start off the crazy Mother's Day Weekend we joined the Sping team and walked in the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer walk along with the other 16,000 people that came out for the cause. It was insane how many people were there... it was a never ending sea of people. It was really neat to see the support... and to see all of the survivors that were there as well. Jake and Ellie didn't think that it was too much fun... even though everyone was wearing pink... Ellie was not a fan! Jake hates anything that has to do with a stroller or car seat... and then Mason just went along for the ride! He decided that he would rather sleep for the cause that walk for the cause!

If looks could kill I think we would all be dead...

Just along for the ride! He doesn't understand what Jake and Ellie are so upset about... life couldn't be better with his pink energizer bunny ears to chew on!
"Sleeping for the cure!"
Just a view of how many people were there... except that this does not even do it justice!

Our crew consisted of Me, Mason, my mom, Connie, Gae (my aunt from AZ), Ashley, Tommy, Ellie & Jake! Next year we decided that I think we will all sleep for the cure!

Sittin' and a Talkin'

So Mason really wants to make his mom feel bad for going to work. I came to pick him up at my mom's tonight after work and to my surprise he was sitting up (completely unassisted) and talking up a storm... saying da da... and I think that I may have even heard a ma ma in there too!

Here is some footage of his talking as well as a picture of him sitting up. Please don't mind his outfit, dad dressed him this morning and didn't realize that Mason is 6 months and 0-3 month clothes are a little snug!

Solids Anyone?

I decided to start Mason on solids (rice cereal) about a week ago to see how he did and also to see if it would help with his reflux at all. The good news is that he loves the cereal and can't get enough of it, the bad news is, he still pukes just as much! Oh, well what do you do? I was expecting it to be a lot harder to feed him, after remembering what a hard time Ellie had with it, but surprisingly enough he did quite well the first time (as you can see he didn't even think that he needed my help!)
