Mason took his first steps for Haley on Monday, January 3, 2011, then again for JuliAnn on Wednesday, January 5, 2011, & finally for us on Friday, January 7, 2011.
Mason drinks cow's milk now & loves his bottles. He is not a fan of chunky food yet, but enjoys crackers, canned green beans, carrots, & peaches. He still eats quite a bit of jarred baby food. He says mama (his first word), dada, baba, nana, papa, ah (for Abby), & hi. He signs for more, bottle, & bye-bye. He gives high-fives often. He likes to head-butt as a sign of affection. He sucks his right thumb (just like big bro).
Max told me this week, "Stop hating on the driver. Mommy you're dissing him. You need a time-out Mommy." Though my grumblings were rated G, apparently he could decipher my tone was annoyed & irritated while waiting for a slow truck. Max enjoys playing with his Mickey clock, laptop, listening to music, and watching leapfrog DVDs. Max is slowly progressing to being fully potty trained. He pees in the toilet all the time & rarely has an accident. He refuses to poop in the toilet so his doctor suggested we let him poop in his pull-up in the bathroom & this is working well. He enjoys having his "privacy" as he takes care of business in the bathroom.
We converted the bonus room into the boys' playroom over winter break. It is nice having the mess contained to one isolated area & gives us much more space to run & play in the great room. The boys really enjoying having their own room.
Lars started going to Men's Fraternity at Foothills on Tuesday mornings & he is loving it! I will start up Prosper on Tuesday mornings next week. It makes Tuesday nights a lot of fun to talk about all we learned.
We are going on our first date night of the year tonight. We are excited to start this twice per month tradition together!
