And one more....

Ok, I warned you...once I started posting pictures I would go crazy. We just have so many cute ones of Mason it's hard to decide which ones to put up.

Anyway, here is Mason on Valentine's Day (Yes, he has themed clothing. I know, it's sick. I promise to stop before he gets older)


Finally.....

I know, I know, it's been a while since I've posted some cutie-pie pictures. So, now I'm probably going to overload all of you :)

Mason still HATES tummy time! I'm hoping this gets better soon.

He still loves being in the bath though. He has discovered kicking and splashing that water. He actually splashed so hard it gets water all over the floor!

Mason has also found that he likes to lick the water off his hands...or just suck it off the washcloth. Gross!

I still think he's so cute in his hooded towels.

What a sweet face!

Bad blogger

Sorry it's been so long...things are just busy! I promise to post pics of Mason soon. He is getting so big and is trying SO hard to roll over now.

President Obama signed an order today about embryonic stem cell research, reversing President Bush's previous policy that banned federal funding. This is so exciting for so many reasons! I know there is a huge debate about using embryonic stem cells, and the when is it considered "life"...and I'm not getting into that on this blog. I'm sure Obama will get some crap for this, since most people think he needs to be focusing on the economy 100%...but seriously, this needed to happen. He promised it during his campaign and then made good on those promises! (how many politicians do that?)

On a personal note, today is Monday, which means that my Copaxone injection is in the stomach. I HATE doing it in my stomach, so when I saw Obama did this today it was extra special to think that maybe, someday, I won't have to gives myself shots in the stomach (or at all) anymore! We also banked Mason's cord blood (we used CBR)and in the horrible event he someday needs it, more research can only help widen the scope of diseases treated by stem cells. There's even a possibility that I could use them for my MS!

OK, enough of this. Back to work :)

She works hard for the money

Today is my first full day back at work. And Mason's first day with Papa. Actually, yesterday was my first day back, but it was only a half day and Todd was home with Mason. I have mixed feelings for sure. I'm glad to be back at work, getting a little break away from home and getting to use my brain for things other than mommy things but it's also really hard to be without Mason! It's only 10:30am and I'm already wondering how he's doing, if he's taking a nap, how Papa is handling it all...but I promised myself I wouldn't call to check on them until lunch. Just two more hours to go until then!!!
