It's That Time of Year

Tis' the season for lots of things to do. It's almost 5pm on Monday and the end of my weekend. Today was such a busy day...no more taking it easy with Mason on Mondays. We were up as early as we are on a typical work day and have been going non-stop.

1. Stopped by Mommy's work to pick up some things left over the weekend

2. Then to the Commissary for grocery shopping

3. Then raced to Mason's 6 month check-up where he now weighs 17.1 lbs (50th percentile) and is 27 inches long (75th percentile). And the doc said his head circumfrence is in the 75th percentile as well! Guess he'll have a lot of brains like mommy :) He also got another shot, but didn't even cry.

4. Then back home for a quick lunch (peas, apples, and rice cereal for Mason and a cucumber sandwich for Mommy)

5. Then off to Fashion Valley (had to take advantage of a weekday that wouldn't be too crazy during this holiday season) where we finished off our Christmas gift shopping and picked up some make-up and pantyhose for Mommy for the RCHSD Christmas Party on Friday.

6. Finally back home at 4pm...Mommy decided to take a short nap with Mason after feeding him a small snack (he fell asleep before finishing his meal)....and thank goodness, he is still sleeping.

So there is still lots to do and Mommy is all tuckered out. I was super ambitious today and got most of it accomplished. But we still have to do some wrapping of presents, finish the Christmas cards, hang lights on the tree, and decorate the Christmas tree. A couple of these may have to be saved for tomorrow and Wednesday night. The hustle and bustle is never-ending, but worth it in the long run. :)
