Mason is an amazing baby! He has been giving us the most beautiful little smirks lately...they literally melt your heart! His eyes are starting to focus on our faces when we are holding him and he makes some 'cooing' sounds at us. His head is very strong and he can already hold it up! He is a great eater and by day 6 he was already back up to his birth weight. The nights are the only struggle that we are faced with right now. He is still nocturnal :) and sleeps during the day and keeps us up for a good part of the night. Oh well...someday we'll get sleep :)

Mason is still having trouble grasping the sleeping at night thing :) and we are having trouble grasping the not sleeping at night thing! We are trying to work on keeping him up more during the day to hopefully switch him around. Otherwise he is doing great. He is now making eye contact (which I love) and he is starting to smile at you. Although most of his smiles are still made while he's half asleep after he's eaten...it is pretty cute! He is still eating great..every 2 hours or so. At his last doctors appointment he weighed 10lbs 9oz!!!! His weight gain is awesome! We are loving every second of being parents (even the tired ones)!

Mason's First Trip to the Beach!!!! 04/12/2008

This last week-end we decided to head out to Stinson because the weather was beautiful! We got there pretty late though but it was still an unbelievable 81 degrees!!!! It was spectacular!!! Mason didn't really care for the sand on his feet although he wasn't too upset about it but Justin dipped his feet in the water and he definitely got upset about that!!! :) We had to do it though!!!!! It was a beautiful drive and a great day! It was nice to go out there for the first time as a family....I couldn't ask for more!!!
