It has been a long time since I last posted and a lot has happened! Mason is doing well ... he has his very FIRST cold right now. This morning he started coughing and has a super runny nose. I was able to use the wonderful nose-suckie for the first time. Yeah, Mason didn't think it was so wonderful. He is still relatively happy given the fact that he isn't feeling top-notch.
We are still waiting to see teeth ... he has gone through fussy days
, low-grade fevers, drooling, and gnawing on his pacifier, but has yet to cut teeth. Many of the babies on my side of the family are late tethers. My niece, Ella, didn't have her first tooth until after she was a year old! We can, however, see the outline of teeth in his gums on the bottom side of his mouth!
Mason still doesn't roll over often, but he has started to creep around while on his belly. He will roll over if he gets tired of being on his belly or if he is trying to reach for a toy while on his back. However, he is inherently lazy and just doesn't feel the need to move around
that often! Another thing that is peculiar about our little Peanut is that he doesn't put things in his mouth! Yes, I checked and he is a baby ... yes, I know babies are supposed to put things in their mouth ... but he just WON'T! It is making the process of teaching him to self-feed pretty difficult. Instead of holding his sippie cup, he will lean towards it and thrust his tongue at it ... as if saying, "mom, I am thirsty ... c'mon!" He'll get the hang of it someday ..... in the
meantime, patience is the name of the game!
In other news, my brother and his family are visiting now. Rudy and Mason are having a good time playing together. We were able to make a trip up to Chico today for my Grandpa Jim's 93rd birthday celebration! It was a very special time to have all great grand kids bond with their great grandparents. We couldn't have asked for a better day to spend with family.
As always, I have attached a link with pictures from the last month. Unfortunately, I lost some pictures as my hard drive crashed and everything was lost. Fortunately, I didn't loose ALL my pictures as I have been putting them on Kodak gallery to showcase for the blog!
Anyhow, I hope this finds you all doing well. I will try not to wait too long before I post again!
Ciao,
Jenn, Tim, and Mason
