3 Months

I cannot believe that my baby is already 3 months old! It has been a very exciting last month because Mason has been doing lots of new things! It is so fun to watch him learn and grow - I am such a proud Mommy!

First off, we went today and had his 3 month pictures taken. He was a little stinker and wouldn't smile even once for the photographer. Oh well, I can't control everything so we'll be happy with the cute pictures we did get!

This would be cute...if he wasn't flipping off the camera!

I love his big blue eyes!

I love this one!

One of my favorites!

He was over it by this point...

We also know (since we went to ER) that Mason gained a pound in 3 weeks so as of last week he was just over 12 lbs. He is still so small, but at least he is gaining weight!

His head is still squishy, but fingers crossed it really does go away in the next few weeks!

The best news is that Mason is officially on a schedule! After he wakes up in the morning he will eat and then  go back down for a 45 minute nap about an hour and a half later. Then he is awake until the afternoon when he will usually take a 2-3 hour nap. Normally he likes to zonk out around 7:00pm for another short nap and then he stays awake until between 10-11pm. Then he sleeps until morning!! LOVE HIM! 

Mason took his first bath in Grandma Jepson's kitchen sink and boy did he love it! I usually give him his bath in the bathroom sink so he probably liked being able to stretch his legs out for a change. He cooed and gooed the entire time!

He even got to use Grandma's Tigger towel! Too cute!

Mason LOVES being on his diaper changing table...love is probably an understatement! He screams like a little girl and we have long conversations while he is getting a clean butt or getting dressed every day!!

 

Conference weekend we had a girl's night with my Dad's side of the family and it was so fun! Mason finally got to meet his Great Grandma Jepson (she flew down from Seattle)!

For Halloween these two little buddies are both going to be skeletons! I dressed up Mason and took him to their ward carnival and he and Payton looked so cute together!

 Payton is the best cousin and Mason still loves him more than anyone else!

 Loving on my little man!!

Daddy picking Mason's nose...and Mason thought it was funny. Definitely a boy.

 (LEFT: Brian's Farewell - notice his tie matches Mason's outfit! RIGHT: The morning Brian left...even Mason was sad.)

Now for videos:

(I realize I may be the only one who actually finds these cute, but I am going to post them anyway since this is my version of a journal)

He thinks his Daddy is just so funny! If you listen close you will hear a snort...it is Mason.

Just talking to Dad.

I can't even describe how amazing it is to be Mason's mommy. He is the sweetest boy and he is such a blessing in our lives. He truly makes our home a happier place and I love waking up to his sweet face every day. These last three months have truly been the best of my life and I am so blessed to be able to call myself his mom!
