Mason and Our Dogs

A few pictures from Monday.



Playing with the dog food.


One littel red curl. So sweet.


Riding in the jeep, that was Uncle Dakota's, then passed down to Justis, and Aiden. Now Huntleigh and Mason can enjoy it, and eventually Kelby.

A little time in the barn.

A mud puddle. Looks like fun!

Macy

This is not officially our dog, but he's been hanging around since December, so I guess you could say we adopted him. Needless to say I fed him a couple of times and he stayed around.

Rufus. He actually showed up at our house about 3 weeks after we were married. Again, I fed him a couple of times and he stayed. Phil does not approve of my method of getting dogs, but whatever makes me happy, he just goes along with.




I failed to mention that Mason went to his 15 month check-up last Wednesday. He weighed 26 pounds and 3 ounces, and measured 33 inches long. He's still in the 95 percentile. He had to get two shots and we were out the door.

He now has 4 teeth on top and 2 on the bottom. They shine like pearls when he smiles.

Funny Moments

Mason has learned if he bends over far enough he can see through his legs. He's really starting to be a show off.





This is what happens when you eat chocolate chip muffins for breakfast.

He still only has 4 teeth.

Another Week with Mason

This past week has flown by. My parents told me the older you get the faster time will go, and I believe it. During work hours I don't mind it though. On to Mason, since he has two teeth now, he tried a bitter biscuit and liked it. Of course he didn't have to clean up the mess it made. He had food up around his ears. Before I had Mason that would've really grossed me out with somebody else's baby, but now I just clean up and don't think anything about it.







Now that Mason can pull up, this is what we see in the mornings when he wakes up. No matter where he pulls himself up, after he's been standing for a few minutes he gets a little fussy, because he doesn't know what to do next.

These were taken yesterday of our cute little guy. He's doing so much these days, I can't imagine what's in store for us as he gets older, but we can wait.

Thanks for checking in on us this week. Be good and have fun this week.

OOPS, MOMMY FORGOT SOMETHING

I forgot to mention, Mason turned 7 months old on Sept. 19. Can you believe it? It's amazing how he's went from just laying on his back or stomach, unable to go anywhere and now he has free reign. Several people told us the first 3 to 6 months are work, but then they just get fun.

I believe he's also getting close to cutting some teeth. He's been a little more fussy than usual, but if he has something to bite down on he seems to be okay.
