Kiddo Update 8/13 & 8/26

*Note: This post was started on 8/13/08, I just didn't have the pictures I wanted to use so it didn't get posted. Not much has changed except Mason is now 3 WEEKS from turning 1 year old! My,my how the time does fly!!

Since I hadn't done an update on the little ones lately I guess now would be a good time to do so. Both the boys are doing good. Mason just went to the doctor last week for his 9 month checkup (yes, he's 10 1/2 months old, long story) and got a clean bill of health. He's weighting in at a whopping 21 lbs, 6oz & is standing 30 1/4 in tall. He is in the 50th percentile for his weight & the 75th percentile for his height. Woo-hoo, maybe we have a chance of having a tall child! And it won't be long now & we are gonna have us a walker on our hands! In the last week or so, he has begun taking a single step or two and he can stand up in the middle of the room on his own for about 30 seconds or so.

8/26/08: I wanted to do an update on Eric while I was at it. So I weighed & measured him today. He weighs in at a whopping 32 lbs (11 lbs more than Mason) & is 39.5" tall (only 9.25" more than Mason)!! My poor little string bean, it won't be long & little brother is gonna be the bigger brother. I tell you what, he may be small but the boy is smart & has the memory of an elephant!! He can recite word for word almost any commercial he's heard. It's funny listening to a 4 yr. old talk about 5 hour energy!! And he's coming along quite nicely with his ABC's & 123's. He can recognize all his numbers up to 10 & most of his letters (especially the ones in his name, ha ha ha). Not much else going on right now, just hanging tight till we get ready to move back to Texas. (Eric can't wait to get back to have his & Mason's b-day party. Better late than never, I guess.) =)

as soon as he sees the camera come out, he
posses for it.


this ones after me anytime he sees the camera.
