Week 6

As some of you know, Mason makes this noise when he's starting to get upset that sounds just like a baby bear. He makes it before he cries and will do it several times in a row. It's so funny sounding that it makes Josh and I laugh and I always joke that he's saying "I'm a Bear!" Well this week I found an outfit that had bears all over it and little bear feet and it's just too cute and perfect for him. It's still a little big, but he'll grow into it. So here if his "I'm a bear" outfit. Just imagine him and his little roar!

I'm so tough! Don't mess with me!

Week 5

Last weekend we had so much fun when Papa Alan came and visited. On Friday we all hung out at the house and ordered take out and Saturday we took Mason to see the ocean in Galveston. Unfortunately it was too cold to get out, so we just looked at the beach from the car. It was amazing to see Galveston after Hurricane Ike. They have done a lot of clean up, but there is still so much more to do. You could still see a lot of damages to the houses and there was debris all over. They are working really hard on the clean up and are hoping to be back to normal for summer. We are excited for this summer when we can go to the beach and play in the sand.

Happy Birthday Pierson

Ok I'm a little late, but Mason really wanted to wish his friend Pierson a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! And since his party isn't until this weekend, technically I'm on time! We hope that you had a great Birthday and an even better party this weekend. We would also like to wish Megan and Drew good luck with the sugar high that he will have! Much love T-ball partner!

Darcy's Blog Debut

The self proclaimed "blog-stalker" has made her way into the blog world! We had so much fun when Darcy and Ryan came down to visit us last weekend! We even took Mason on his first restaurant outings and he did great. He just hung out with us at the table and we all had a good time. We were also really glad that Sarah came and met us for dinner. So fun! I would like to add that Ryan was such a trooper and endured the worst conversation of all time! Even Josh bailed on him! Sorry about that Ryan! I've decided that Darcy and Ryan need to live here in Houston! We miss you!

Bye -Bye for now!

One Month and Counting!

I can't believe it has already been a full month! Time flies when you live on a three hour schedule! Ha ha! Mason had his one month wellness check up today and got the A-OK from our doctor. He now weighs 10.5 lbs (70 percentile) and is 22 1/4 inches long (75% percentile). His cold has gone away and he is looking good. (He had a small cold about a week ago and we had a few rough nights where he wouldn't sleep more than an hour at a time, but he's doing much better now.) He also got a shot and he took it like a trooper with very little crying. We will see what happens next month when he gets lots of shots! I'm sure that he won't be as nice about those! Besides that everything here is the same. We are getting used to life and being on schedules. The weather has been nice here so Mason and I try to get out and walk everyday. (I think that's saving my sanity!) I'm still waiting to get the OK from my Dr. to start exercising again, so that's a little frustrating. I go back on Monday, so hopefully he'll say I'm good to go. It's time to lose this weight! Ok now the important things, it's picture time!
