SHOE update!!!!

Ok so I just posted updates for Mason but I have one I need to change. I had Mason wearing shoes that were size 5 1/2 and as it turns out he is NOT. We wanted to get him some new tennis shoes so we thought we would get his foot measured just to be sure. Shocker..........he needs a 6 1/2 if he is going to have any room to grow. The lady said I should really buy a size 7. OMG!!!!! My child is 10 months old and he has outgrown all our 2 year old friends. He is going to be taller than me by the time he is 6 years old:)

Much needed Mason updates


Ok so Mason is 10 months old now. I can NOT believe how he is growing and changing. He is doing so much these days. He jabbers all the time and can say mama and dada when he wants to. He pulls up on everything. He is a super fast crawler and can get away from you in seconds. He can play in his room for a very long time and keep himself entertained. He eats everything and he feeds himself dinner now. He has 3 teeth now. He loves pasta pickups and fruit bites. People never believe he is only 10 months.

10 month stats:
weight-24lbs
height-about 31in
sizes-12month pants 18-24 month shirts 51/2 shoes


9 months update. Major things that happened this month is Mason FINALLY cut his first tooth. He has 2 bottom teeth now. He also decide to crawl normally and realised it is a lot faster. We went to he Dr. for a check up this month and everything was perfect. The Dr. said he was soaring off the charts for height. I was glad we went in because he had his first real sick episode. He threw up all over me 3 times the night before we went in. Thank goodness it was over quickly. He has been battling a snotty nose and cough for weeks now but nothing like the stomach bug.

9 month stats:
weight-24.? lbs 80%
height-30.5 in 95%






8 months




7 months

Christmas at Mamaw Jean's


Watch me GO!

JT and Mason up to no good.


Thanks LouLou for my cool chair

Who needs presents when you have a really big box to play with.
Tripp thought it would be fun to climb on

Mason's car walker was a hit. Actually they fought over it :)

So we compromised and turned it into a clown car :)

Mason and Tripp

We always get together with my family at Mamaw's. Now we have 3 little rugrats to chase around. Cousin Tripp is 17 months, JT is 14 months and Mason was almost 10 months when we go together. They were so much fun to watch. Next year is going to be exciting.

Christmas










And to all a GOOD NIGHT!!!
WE had a great Christmas this year. Santa went a little overboard but Mason LOVED it. We celebrated here in LR at our house. Everyone came for the day and we fixed a great dinner. Jarrod always does an awesome job with the meat :) I loved having everyone here to celebrate. I have more to post later.


Happy 30th Birthday to me



Oprah put these on her favorites list so we had to try them. If you eat to many you'll be a "Fat Witch."





Jarrod gave me the best birthday gift ever!!! HE sent me to NYC . Kerri and Lauren came along and we had the greatest time. We stood in the rain to get tickets to see Mary Poppins and the show was unbelieveable. We shopped and ate till we could not eat anymore. I had the BEST time and I can't wait to go again :) Thanks girls for making this trip so much fun. Thank you Jarrod for sending me. I have ALWAYS wanted to go and I finally got that wish. You are the best!

The Square in Amsterdam
We took the best trip ever this bast November. Carol, Lech, Melissa, Greg, Jarrod and I all went on a whirl wind trip to Europe. First, we went to Amsterdam and had a great time wandering around. It is not ALL skeezy. Then, we headed to Brussells for one day only. The Main square was amazing. The buildings were so beautiful. Last, we headed to Paris for a few days. I had been to Paris before a LONG time ago but this was different. We were able to just stroll around by ourselves and take it all in. I really missed Mason but I had a great time. I am so glad he had such good sitters back here at home. Thanks everybody.
