Eating Peas!

Well, we know that eating peas for the first time was not a huge hit ... in fact, Mason gagged his way through most of it. But we tried it again today and this time mommy mixed it with rice cereal and it went over quite well. So, now we have sweet potatoes and peas in our veggie repertoire! :)

Trick or Treat Time : Halloween Fun

Mason's First Halloween!

So Mason got all dressed up in his little lion costume and went trick or treating with the Plums. He was so cute! But guess we tuckered him out because he was asleep before we got home. :)

Calvin Leaves for Oman

So on Monday, 10/27/2008, Calvin left for one month. This is the second time he's been away since Mason was born; though it's the first time since Mommy's been back to work. This week has been a little challenging...adjusting to a new schedule, planning lots of things (maybe too much), and staying busy. We made it through okay and I think we are ready for week two. Here are a couple pictures of Mommy and Daddy's date night before he left as well as Calvin and Mason the morning of.

Sweet Potatoes! YUM!

Mason tried sweet potatoes for the first time today! Judging by the look on his face and the gagging we dealt with while eating, I don't think he liked them as much as the pears ... but mommy loves them so I'm sure he will learn to love 'em too!

Daddy was Right!

10/18/2008

So today Mason proved to Mommy that Daddy was right after all! While Calvin was at the Man Power breakfast, Mason and I were at home. I put Mason in his crib, wound up his animal mobile like always, and got ready to go take a shower. But I made a pit stop at the computer to look at email and then went back to check on Mason ... lo and behold he had ROLLED OVER! You can see in the picture that he still had his arm up underneath him! He hasn't quite figured out how he can roll back, but this is a good start! One of these days I'll catch him on film!
