feetsie pajamas

I want to dedicate a whole blog to feetsie pajamas..why you ask? because I. LOVE. THEM.  there is not anything cuter in the world then feetsie jammies, I will try to fit you in these until they no longer make them in your length..I hope that at 13 I can still find some that fit you :)  (Kidding!)

seeing as though my other computer broke, i am missing a lot of new born - 3 months, and that upsets me terribly. here are a few of my favs!

don't you agree??

to be continued!  Ha!

april 26, 2010

you are 6 months old!

my oh my how time flies!

for some reason on this date, you started the best trend of... SLEEPING!!! since the 26th, you've gone to bed at 7-8 pm and wake up at 6-6:30. YES! 

your 6 month check up is coming up so i'm unsure of your weight..but i do know one thing. you are heavy. my back now feels like it is 87 years old.  you are one solid boy!!

monthly review

-
-you sit up like a champ!-you're wearing sizes 6-9 and 12 clothes --pushing more towards the 12's though!

-you love all foods (except for the meats, but i can' t blame you on that one)

-mr. inquisitive is your name this month...you study EVERYTHiNG.

-hands, toes, and every other object that is near you go into your mouth all day

-smiling is something you have perfected

-eating is something you could do all day long

-rolling over is something you couldn't be bothered with - tummy time is the worst time of day for you!

-you see diesel run and you want to do the same

-most determined baby boy i know

you are so sweet and make my face hurt from smiling so much.

love you to pieces my little bubba boy :)

-mama

milestones!!

Yesterday 4-20-10 was a big day for you!   Was it because you wanted to impress your aunt Mandi?  I THINK SO!


Mason sat up for atleast 5 minutes, and then when he got tired he held onto the bar where the hanging things are on. WOOHOO.  He's becoming more solid and so strong!

Also we went out to dinner with Meme and aunt Mandi, you got to sit alll by yourself in the wooden highchair!!

What a big boy!

guess what else, mama can't find her camera, how convenient..uhgg..

okay now you're busy hitting keys and making things pop up on here that i didn't know existed. better go!

ciao!

1st Easter!

Happy first Easter Mason John!!!

dog loves baby. baby loves dog.

I have been meaning to dedicate a page to your dogs Duchy and Diesel.  Duchy accepts you, and will look at you while you cry, but Diesel  he loves you, and you love him. for now. We will see how this relationship is next year....

The reason why I am dedicating a post to your dogs is becauseee..Diesel is obsessed with you. He makes it sooo hard for me to take a picture of you and just you. I can't tell you how many times I have had to delete pictures because there is an unnecessary ear, leg, or tail in the way.. , here are a few pictures to show what I mean....

as far as diesel is concerned you are friends whether you like it or not!

look, he even tried to get you to play with him!                  

anyways..you get my drift. I hope you two continue to be buddies because then you can throw that damn ball! 

Before you were born we worried about how Diesel would be with you --now our only worry is making sure he doesn't drown you with his kisses..

5 month review

5 months have gone by, already???

YAY You did it! You ROLLED OVER!

March 5th you accidentally rolled over--okay so you scared yourself just a little but hey we'll take it!!

since then you have rolled over two times.  let's see if we can break our record next month!

holy canoli, everyone is right time does fly. well let's review what's new !  we had a surprise 5 month visit to the dr. because you caught the saddest / most awful sounding cough i've ever heard. however on the plus side you love it at the doctor's.  i think all we need to do is get you some of that paper and you could lay and play on it all day! 

 the doctor determined that you had a cold and in time it shall pass..he didn't say that during that time is the saddest, hardest thing to watch you go through!!! you're now finally starting to feel better and you're back to your bubbly self.thank goodness!

you weigh 17.0 lbs and you're 27" long. that makes for one big  boy!!!

this month has been exciting for you/us!  you have discovered your dogs duchy and diesel. you just lovee diesel and will smile any time he comes around you.  one night you laughed for 5 minutes because he was laying next to us chewing on a bottle cap....he sure is our special doggie. 

we have tried various kinds of foods and you seem to like almost all of them..squash.bananas.applesauce.pears.prunes.sweet potatoes.carrots...you express your likes and dislikes very clearly to us...when there is something you don't like then you scream and scream at us until the roof almost blows off!! i'm not giving up yet, the peas.beans.WILL be back!! ;0 ha

-you love to be around people, especially your father, your face lights, your arms and legs squirm and you literally lose your breath when you see him!

-you've definitely discovered that voice of yours, you squabble and make funny noises at us all the time!

-if your  mouth was big enough then those fists would be in it all day long! you love to have every object meet your mouth the second you get ahold of it!

-we can still count the little hairs on your head (grow hair grow) we are dying to know what color you'll be!!

you are wearing:

~6-9 clothing, and some jammies you can't wear because your little toes curl right up! 

~size three diapers

~mainly knitted or fleece hats because we just can't fit that big bald head into any that are fitted --(blame that on your daddy).

in conclusion:

it's far too hard to write about everything you have learned,discovered, and made us laugh at this month.  this means that mama needs to become a better blogger--if only i could add more hours in the day! thanks for making our days and life so much brighter my precious little bubba boy!

love you more than you'll ever know.

love,

mama

march 1. 2010

Okay so I boycotted this for a little while.. I became very frustrated one day while trying to change my layout...I worked on it for almost an hour..to make a long boring story short not one  good came out of it!


On March 1, we had Mason's 4 month check up, shots included! I have a huge soft spot when it comes to shot day that I have made Mark  hold his hands each time.  I just can't bring myself to go through that awful pain with him!  This time around he did 100% better than last time, I think because the extra chunk helped. ;)  Oh and the weight I had for your 3 months is inaccurate because I did it at home. 


We discovered that you were 15.7 lbs (50-75%) and you were 26" long. (95%) !  You are a growing boy, you've grown so much that even some of your 6-9 outfits don't fit you anymore!!


Since the Dr. visit, we started introducing some fruits and a few veggies to you.  So far you are not a picky eater, you love everything!  We are holding off on the green veggies, and sticking to the lighter foods.  I would say that your favorites so far are bananas and applesauce!  You can't get enough.  We give you 1 fruit or veg a day, and some cereal at night with bottles in between.  This seems to satisfy you however we are still meeting up at 4, and 5 am sometimes!  Your naps usually consist of 2 or 3 "catnaps" where you sleep on average 20 minutes long.  However there are some days that you will sleep a 2 hour stretch, but that's usually when you are with Meme...


On the weekends you like to stay as busy as possible, meaning everywhere Mama goes, you demand to go to.  It makes for a day filled of exercise for me going up and down stairs, putting things away, etc. with you on hip!  I must say you are not the lightest little baby!!


Everyday I think you gain 5 lbs, I think it's time that your mother starts lifting weights and exercising more consistently!!!


Your favorite things include: one fist, 2 fists in mouth, smiling, standing up on our laps, taking in every minute you can, your father, making funny noises, bath time, being on the go - shopping, going for rides, and we can't forget your food!! You have started to put your hands out and lean into the person that wants to hold you..it's so cute. You are a very happy baby and a joy to have in our lives.  I love every minute with you! You make us smile every day, love you Bubb!  <3 your Mama
