It looks like Mason was handing Reesie a toy phone, but he probably stole it away from her!!!

Reese had her first ear infection last week- poor Reesie!  She did like taking her meds, though!



Mason is 11 months old!!!

Wow, in just one month, Mason will be one year old!!!!!  I know I write this every month, but I can't believe how quickly time goes!  I remember one year ago being big and pregnant and Mya was starting Preschool and our lives were so different with one child (yet still very challenging at times!!)!  And now Mya has started her second year of preschool, Mason is almost walking, and so much has changed!

So here are my updates on Mason, since this blog will be used as his "baby book"!  He has 5 teeth now, he took 8 steps yesterday, he wears a size 6 shoe and 18-24 mo. clothing, and he is SO ACTIVE!!!  He goes after every electrical outlet, lamp, plant, and cabinet that he can reach.  Just when we think we can't childproof another thing, he finds something! Now he can even reach doorknobs!!  The ladies in the nursery at church said they wanted to send me a sympathy card, as they understand how hard it is to keep him away from stuff, including other babies!!  At least it's a workout for me (and usually my only workout these days!!), but he plays hard and exhausts himself!  Oh, and I almost forgot to mention his eating....he eats anything and everything we give him (which lately has led to a mess of dirty diapers, like 4 or 5 per day!).  Whatever I make for dinner for the rest of us, he will eat.  In a few short weeks, I will be purchasing my final container of Similac....forever!!!!!!!  He is a happy guy and loves to play with Mya.  We have been blessed, and even when it's 3AM and I'm changing his crib sheets and clothes because he pooped out of his diaper, I'm still thankful for this big (and I mean BIG....hehehe!) blessing!!
