To Grandma and Grandpa's House We Go!!






Tonight, Mason is all snug in his crib. We lowered the mattress tonight, because he is starting to pull up! It was kinda sad, because I thought well, that's just one more sign that he's growing up. He's already 7 months!! Where has the time gone? He loves to walk, while holding onto our hands and he is now "scooting" around when sitting up. He can turn in circles while on his tummy, but a forward motion "crawl" isn't quite happening yet. I'm in no rush. It'll happen when it happens. He smiles ALL the time now and just giggles. He invents a new sound nearly every day and it's hilarious to hear. He's now eating three meals a day. He loves his veggies and fruits. We have started on some finger foods, but he doesn't have any teeth, so again, not rushing anything,

We had a great trip to Atlanta this weekend. We were able to take Mason to visit both of his great-grandmothers. Mason was as always a joy. We were in the car for most of the day. He was so good and loved showing off his new "walking" skills to his great-grandma's. Of course, Travis and I left the camera at my Mom and Dad's house! So, I'm a little upset, but we bought a disposable one and I'm hoping we got some good shots.

We also got a chance to stop and see Mason's Uncle Alan and Zia Tracey. We had a nice visit with them, met Tracey's two adorable cats and got to see our nephew, Huen the super dog. We then traveled to the outlet mall and visited Carter's and Strausburg. We bought some super cute stuff for Mason. Travis even let me buy something that he thought was kinda sissy, but OMG it is the cutest thing EVER! I can't wait to take pictures of him in it!! Speaking of clothes, It's so hard finding cute boy stuff. I mean I could find something cute for a baby girl in a freaking vending machine, but boys stuff, Oh my lord. It's either so frilly or so covered with cheap looking patches of weird looking animals or stupid sayings. Drives me insane. It really does.

Anyway, we did find some cute stuff and then we headed back home for dinner. We were in the car all day, and he only started fussing at the end of the day. God loves this child. He is super amazing and it was so special to see him interact and be just adorable with his great-grandma's and his Uncle and Zia. It was a nice trip!!

Here are some new pictures of Mason at our house with Mom and Dad and from our visit in Atlanta, when we did have the camera!!

He may skip crawling all together. You never know.
He looks like a doll in those pics.
