Mason at 7 Months (and 2 days, OK!!)
The many faces of Mason!
(the middle one is the most common these days!)
I'm a few days late with posting these, but I didn't have time to take pictures! Ah! So I had my monthly photo-shoot with Mason today. He turned 7 months old on Sunday, so here he is! I have to say he is such a JOY to me! He is getting around a lot quicker these days and we actually saw him crawl a step or two the other day! Needless to say, he's all over the place. Today I pulled him out from under the chair at the piano. He likes to hide under the jumper, behind the chair, in the corner of the sectional, and other fun places! He is getting quite vocal with little gremlin growls and his new favorite word, 'Da da'. Ian LOVES it when they start talking (more like yelling) at each other saying Dada and giggling! It's hilarious to watch! Mason just cracks up at Ian, and actually, today to my surprise, Luke had him belly laughing too! Mason loves to jump in the jumper, but not the one here at home.... he prefers the one at the YMCA nursery... it's got a lot more spring and he can really get some air with it! Mason also has his first crush! He LOVES my neighbor Shanon! Every time she comes to visit, he just lights up and wants her to hold him! He'll grab her face and give her a big smooch too!! It's great! And she loves him back too! I just love my little guy! I can't believe he's already this old. :( Time goes by way too fast!
Ian pulled out his 2nd tooth today at school all by himself! He was so proud of himself that he lost it there, because he got to bring it home in a cool tooth box! I think he likes the box more than the lost tooth! He said he was just wiggling it and pulling up on it, then it just came out! It didn't even bleed! He was glad for that! I told him he has a nice holey head now, and he laughed at me! The one thing he really is sad about now is that he cannot whistle anymore! Darn! I told him when his big teeth come in, he'll be able to whistle once again. He was glad for that as well! He told me tonight when he went to bed that he was going to hold on to the tooth box, so that when the Tooth Fairy came, he would feel her try to take the box and he would wake up. I said she's very sneaky and if he caught her, he would be the first, cause no ones ever seen her! I also said, that I heard she was very beautiful... after I said that, I kissed him good night and walked out of the room. A moment later, he said to me, 'Mom... how do YOU know the Tooth Fairy is beautiful if no ones ever seen her!?' I'll let you imagine how I answered him! ;) *wink wink
So, on January 10
