Fun and Papa and DeeDee's!

Hi Ya’ll!! This past Sunday Mason and I loaded up and headed SOUTH…we spend half the day at Papa’s and DeeDee’s. As you can see Mase loves his Papa and his DeeDee too, but she’s always the one taking the pictures. They wanted to take him to their hang out…A.K.A STARBUCKS to show him off to all of their friends, but wouldn’t you know it none of the regulars were there so Papa showed him off to so other random folks…such a proud Papa! I enjoyed out visit so much…I think GOD everyday that I have been blessed with such wonderful parents who play such an active role in my son’s life. Thank you Mom and Dad I love you sooooo much! Please excuse the way I look in these pics…it was way too early to think about putting make-up on our fixing my hair. LOL!!!!

Before I was a Mom

Before I was a MomI made and ate hot meals.I had unstained clothing.I had quiet conversations on the phone.Before I was a Mom,I slept as late as I wantedAnd never worried about how late I got into bed.I brushed my hair and my teeth everyday.Before I was MomI cleaned my house each day.I never tripped over toys or forgot words of lullabies.Before I was a MomI didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.I never thought about immunizations.Before I was a MomI had never been puked onPooped onSpit onChewed onPeed onOr pinched by tiny fingersBefore I was a MomI had complete control of:My thoughtsMy bodyAnd my mind.I slept all night.Before I was a MomI never held down a screaming childSo that doctors could do testsOr give shots.I never looked into teary eyes and cried.I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.Before I was a MomI never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put it down.I never felt my heart break into a million piecesWhen I couldn't stop the hurt.I never knew that something so smallCould affect my life so much.I never knew that I could love someone so much.I never knew I would love being a Mom.Before I was a MomI didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.I didn't know that bond between a Mother and her child.I didn't know that something so smallCould make me feel so important.Before I was a MomI had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okayI had never known the warmthThe joyThe loveThe heartacheThe wonderOr the satisfaction of being a Mom.I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much before I was a Mom.

Diamonds are a girls best friend!

Thirsty Thursday - Met Scott for lunch today as he is on his Paternity leave for the next few weeks. We met at Coopies a restaurant in Fire Wheel that we love. He'd done a little shopping before hand which include a couple of sleepers for little MC, a vest for him (Christmas Pics on Saturday) and a gift bag from Zales for me!!! He bought me diamond stud earrings!!! I was shocked. I was afraid he was going to buy me another Coach or Dooney and I really hoped that he didn't because I already have several of those and really wanted something different. So now I'm sporting my new bling....they're absolutely beautiful!

Milestones

Okay...so there's been a few milestone for Mason in these last couple of days. First, on Monday we tried rice cereal ( I got it on video I'll post soon) and yesterday he rolled from his tummy to his back three times! I've been waiting for him to do this for a while. Yeah Mason!!!

Mason's First Halloween.

Mom...why do I have to wear this?!?!
Too much candy...Just Kidding.

The Family

Mommy and her little Bear

The two "Loves of my Life"

Okay....so it's been a while...sorry life has been crazy. We had so much fun on Halloween, we got together with several of our neighbors and had lots of food and adult beverages. Mason wore his Halloween costume for all of 10 minutes before he got pissed! I don't blame him though...who wants to wear a hot bear costume when it 80 plus degrees outside...not my little bear! We have a lot going on this month so I will try to keep you up to speed. This Friday is my 27th birthday (when did that happen) and Scott will be out of town so I will be spending it with "Baby Mason" and a few neighbors. On Saturday we're celebrating mine and my mom's birthday at my favorite tex-mex restaurant and then going back to my house for cake. My sister and brother-in law are also coming in town for the festivities and I'm soooo excited...it's been over a month since I've seen her and I'm really missing my sissy. Mason is such a good baby...he's going to bed between 8:00 pm and 8:30 pm and usually sleeps until 7:00 am. He learned that he has a voice and loves to use it. The other night he woke me up because he decided to carry on a conversation with Mr. Giraffe and himself for about 30 minutes and then passed out...it was the cutest thing. He had his 4 month check-up this past Monday and is weighing in at 15 lbs (50th percentile) and 25 inches long (95th percentile). Okay...well I better run so much to do and so little time.
