We spent New Years Eves at my parents house, hanging out, playing games, watching OU win and well drinking champagne, lots of champagne! At midnight we went and woke Mason up (we're good parents like that!) and watched the count down and celebrated. I have to admit we aren't as crazy as we used to be, but it still a lot of fun! Too be honest, it was about as much fun as I could handle. We even had a midnight breakfast to ring in the New Year! Hope everyone ate their black eyed peas and has a GREAT 2010! As for the rest of January, we made it back to Houston excited to be out of the snow and yet its still cold! Its been a very cold and wet month here which is unusual for Houston. Now I know I cant complain too much cause its much colder other places, but still! I am so ready for Spring! We did have about a week of really nice days and were able to go outside and play at the park. We would take the wagon to the park (he loves that thing!) and climb on the jungle gyms. Hopefully it will be nice again soon and I can get some pictures outside, but until then inside we will stay! Mason has gotten very good at walking and now likes to run ( ok, its more like a really fast waddle). His favorite game is the chase game. He waits until you are looking at him and takes of running, stopping just to make sure you are coming after him. He usually runs into his tent and waits for you to come get him and tickle him. He loves being tickled. He has also learned how to climb on the couch and how to move his toys around so he can climb on them to reach higher places. Not real thrilled about either of those two accomplishments! He finally figured how to climb on and ride on his riding toys and how to push himself. He babbles all the time and is very serious about it. It sounds like what he is telling me is very important. Guess I'll find out someday. Oh and he's really into screaming again. I think he does it just to hear his voice get loud and watch me cringe. Gotta love that! Thats really about it as far as new things that he does. I'll try to get a video or two put up soon and I promise I'll be better about updating!
We turned one of our guest bedrooms into a playroom and I LOVE IT! Its the best thing that we've done! Oh and Mason like it too! Finally a room all for him!
