Mason - Six months old!

 So, I attempted a 6 month "photoshoot" with Mason today, since (I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!) he's six months old.
It took about 2 seconds for him to remove one shoe.

This was the best picture we got with the blocks.  Meredith didn't want Mason "playing" with her blocks, unless she could build too. (We're working on sharing.) Sooo.. big sissy scooted in to build blocks.

Mason mostly ate them.

There were hugs.

And Mommy admiring her baby's eyelashes.

...More building by Meredith.

...and some knocking over by Mason.

...And more block eating.

We took some pictures of Mere, because she is FOUR!! (Can't believe that either.)

I love my babies!

Tomorrow, we'll attempt a more structured 6 month "Mommy photoshoot".

In the meantime...

Mason, you are SIX months old.

You haven't had a well check-up yet, but I imagine you're about 17 lbs.  
Maybe 27 inches long?

You wear a size 3 diaper.
You wear size 12 month/12-18 month shirts, onesies, and one piece pj's.
You wear size 6 month, or 6-9 month pants.
You wear a size 3 shoe. (We found that out today when Dada bought you some boots!  Mama told him to get a size 2 and it was too small!)

You have eaten rice cereal, peas, and carrots so far.  You aren't super crazy about either!  You'd rather nurse.  You eat about every 2 hours during the day, but go 3 hours sometimes!  

At night you usually have one long stretch of 3-4 hours and eat every hour or two before and after that.  Mama is in no hurry for you to sleep through - you're growing too fast in all the other ways as it is!

You love your jumperoo.

You aren't content sitting on my lap for more than a few minutes.  You want to get down to roll and scoot around!  You roll places in no time.

You are sitting up on your own - for exactly one week today - and you're already a pro!  You can reach down and grab toys and sit back up!

You get on your hands and knees and rock back and forth but haven't "officially" crawled yet.

You put EVERYTHING in your mouth.  Anything you find, you have to taste.  Mama cannot turn around for a second!!

We love you SO, SO much Mason!!
