So it's been a while!

I can't believe it has been over two months since I last posted! I thought for sure that I would have time to keep this updated now that I am staying home but I guess that is not the case! I am making a new goal to post at least a couple of times a week though! We have had such a fun summer as a new family! Mason is growing and getting more personality each day and we are so in love with our little boy! I think that he is pretty much the perfect age right now and don't want him to grow up! I will definitely be the mom that is sobbing outside his classroom on the first day of kindergarten! So here is what Mason has been up to during July and August!


He is now 16 weeks old! That is crazy to me! It seems like just yesterday that I was pregnant and couldn't wait for him to be here!
- He weighs around 15 pounds and is around 26 inches long. I think he is going to be tall and skinny.....many of his three month clothes are still big on him but are too short!
- He is still eating every three hours but is sleeping longer stretches at night. On good nights he will sleep for 7-8 hours but normally sleeps at least 6.
- He loves being around people and does not like being left alone! He wants someone with him at all times to entertain him.
- He is a not a fan of his crib....he will fall asleep in your arms at night but the second his head hits the mattress he cries.
- He is such a happy baby! We have been so blessed!
- He is smiling and laughing all the time! He will almost roll over from back to stomach...I say almost because he gets stuck on his arm and becomes frustrated but he's so close!
- He does not like tummy time! I am trying to better about it but he grunts and cries after more than 5 or 10 minutes.
- He loves his changing table! That is where we get the most smiles, coos and laughs. I think he loves being able to look up at us.
- He went swimming for the first time! I think he was a little confused about why he was taking his bath outside but he didn't cry!

- He is starting to notice and enjoy his toys. He especially loves anything with lights or music.
- He has had lots of play dates this month and is starting to notice and smile at his "friends!" Too cute!

Here are a few more pictures of our little man from the last couple of months!
