Update!! Per everyone's request.

Just a little update on what's going on. Scott took the bar in July and is currently waiting for his test results. They don't tell you until October. Bummer!
We are playing the waiting game until then.

Scott is playing Mr. MOM while I am working. He calls it vacation from his 3 years of studying. We are currently living at his family's house. Saving up money for a house and all the other finer things and necessities in life.

Mason now has 3 teeth and he is 14 months. I know only 3!! But they are still sharp, watch out because he knows what they are used for....to bite your pointy fingers. I have never met a child who loved to brush his teeth more than Mason. He loves it. Every morning I can say " Mason lets brush your teeth" and he will run into the bathroom and wait patiently for me to put toothpaste (baby orajell brand) on his toothbrush and brush his gums and 3 teeth. When i am done he cries because he wants to keep doing it. I have bought him his own play toothbrush and he takes that everywhere. Somtimes i wonder what he will want to be when he grows up, watching his likes and dislikes of things. I guess a dentist wouldn't be that bad.

We miss all of our friends close and far and hope we can meet up with them again.

Until then watch for the next blog!! it may take me a while...it always does.

Camping under the stars!


Mason had a great time camping out under the stars for his first time( real camping...in a tent!). Earlier that day Scott had to pack all of our gear and clothes and pick me up at work to head out to go camping with the Marsing Family for Father's Day weekend. Scott had only brought Mason two outfits, and I was in high heel shoes. Needless to say it was an experience. It was my first time as well in a tent with no bathrooms nearby and no showering. It got really cold at night but Mason kept me really warm. He was so cute sleeping in his own sleeping bag and eating smores. He loved playing with the other kids that were there, but also playing in the dirt. Scott's friend had a four wheeler and Scott took Mason on that for his first time and he loved it. He kept saying "oooooo". It was a great Father's Day weekend.



A boating we will go...

So we decided it was about time that Mason had his first boat ride. I mean after all his dad is an avid fisherman. Both men must have a boat to fish. I was a little nervous about the boat ride. How would Mason react? Would there be a small enough life jacket for him? You know the routine....worried mommy syndrome. Well, he did great and loved watching the water hit the boat. When the boat got real jumpy, he stuck it out like a real trooper!!




Mason all smiles in his lifejacket. (this is before we got into the water!)
