Fifteen Months and 3 months?!

Month Fifteen

Three Months

Silly Mason, not you, me!

Yes I am pregnant. Yes we are overjoyed.

Our babies will be 21 months apart. The thought of this little guy being a big brother and the thought of getting to do this all over again... super exciting.

We are officially 12 weeks with a scheduled C-section around January 17th of next year. Life has been a little different these last few months, but I am finally feeling a little better and have energy to chase this little one around! We cannot wait to see how different this new baby will be. It already feels different to me, and already feeling baby move this early is also exciting.

I will try to do a better job of blogging in the weeks to come, but in the meantime, we would greatly appreciate prayers for just a healthy baby and momma.

Thanks!

These past few months have flown by. Mason has really grown into a toddler overnight. A few key "toddler" developments this month include:

• Running, jumping, climbing, throwing and squealing
• Down to just one afternoon nap
• Doesn't want to go to bed at night, he doesn't fight it, but he isn't exhausted at 7:30 at night anymore and struggling to stay awake. He is really flexible with bedtime now.
• He has become way pickier with food, or at least more aware that he can refuse to eat things and all of the toddler tantrums that come with that.
• He has learned to question adults a little more, telling us no and laughing, or not listening the 1st, 2nd or 3rd time we tell him not to do something... i.e. hit the dog or throw a rock at a car. He could definitely get out of hand quickly if we weren't on top of it telling him what is not acceptable.
• Eating all table food now that he has 4 molars. He even eats sandwiches.
• Answers yes and no to most questions that he understands, which has made communicating a little easier since he still doesn't say much more than one word at a time if that.

Other than that, he is all boy. He loves being outdoors, loves playing in the water, throwing balls, stacking blocks, eating dirt and playing with rocks and of course chasing our dog around everywhere with hopes of grabbing onto his tail and never letting go... poor poor Dusty, I promise I am trying to work on him Dusty, I promise.
