Please dont let Mason have my ears!

So I was going thru some baby photos and it makes me wonder who Mason will look like. I have a feeling he'll look more like Gavin. Gavin said as long as he's smart like me, he'll be happy! haha! I just pray Mason doesnt have my EARS! I dont think my ears stick out as bad as they did as a kid, guess my head finally grew or something...but really, look at my baby photo- I think i was a CUTE kid, but not so sure about a cute Baby! LOL

1st Winter Storm for 2006!

Our first winter storm hit last night! Here in Texas, these things dont happen TOO often, but everyone goes crazy over it and forgets how to drive! LOL Its just a mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain really. To me, its an excuse to stay inside and not leave! :-)

The weather was pretty drastic yesterday, it was cloudy and about 75 most of the day yesterday, then around 6 pm the temperature started to drop, it dropped about 40 degrees in 2 hours time! It got COLD! Here's a picture of our house I took today with the wonderful weather we're having!

Moving Along!

Well I guess Mason DOES want to come out a little early- I went to my OB today and she said I'm dialated at a 2, and she said i was effaced, but didnt say how much. I know I can stay at a 2 for quite some time, but hopefully he comes SOONER than LATER. I've had an easy breezy pregnancy so its not that I want him out for my sake, but I really want my dad to see him before his trip to Hong Kong and also for Sara to see him before her trip to England. (both leave Sunday & Monday of this weekend) So I'm really working on walking and trying to get him out!Tomorrow I'll be climbing stairs and see what happens, for some reason I have a feeling it could be by this weekend. :0) If not this weekend, then there IS a full moon next week! LOL
So Send us some Labor Dust/Vibes- and easy labor dust too- and maybe we will have a new little baby this weekend!

It's Christmastime!

Its my favorite Season! I get to listen to christmas music all the time, and I get EVERY excuse to watch my favorite movie- "Love Actually"...and of course decorate!! Our tree is ALMOST DONE! i think i'm going to try and find a new topper tomorrow (i think it needs to be red) and i want some LARGE silver ornaments to put in the tree as well.

The mantle is almost finished, i need to find a stocking holder for Mason's stocking & I'm having his stocking embroidered too to match ours! :-)

Funny Baby Quotes

I have a friend who does embroidery- so I thought I'd let her embroider some onsies for Mason and a few for Rilee (Amy's bun in the oven). The problem is the longer I thought about what I wanted to have embroidered, the funnier they got. This poor child of ours...when he's older one day he's going to Tell Gavin- "why in the world did you ever let Mom dress me?" LOL

here's a few funny quotes that he'll be wearing soon-


iPood. (instead of ipod, haha and will also be in the Apple font!)

Don’t wake me, I’ll wake you.

Lock up your daughters

Hi I’m new here.

Now that I’m safe,

Future Mr. Right

Master of Disaster

Stroller today, Corvette tomorrow. (funny, considering "Pops" just bought his Grampa car on Saturday- a shiny new red corvette!)

Baby Shower!

Last Month I was so Blessed to have 2 of my closest friends and My sister to throw me a baby Shower! It was so much fun and they really outdid themselves! Sara even took tons of photos to document the great day too! :0)

Here's the link to all the photos- http://www.sdsphotography.smugmug.com/gallery/2046102

Baby Makes 3!

Welcome to our Family Blog!
I wanted to get a blog started so that our families across the country can see pictures and updates about our little family and Mr. Mason after his arrival! With Gavin being a photo nut, i know we'll have so many pictures to share!

Here I am in the last week (hopefully!) of pregnancy. Officially we've got 12 days left, but hopefully Mason will make his grand entrance before that! We're really crossing our fingers for sometime this week. My dad (soon to be "Pop") leaves for his last business trip to Hong Kong on December 3rd, and my best friend Sara leaves Monday December 4th for her visit home to England- I know both of them would love to be here to greet Mason, so hopefully he cooperates and comes a little early! I go back to my Dr. on Tuesday (the 28th) afternoon, so hopefully we've had some progress!
Gavin and I are all ready at home to bring Mason home, we've even started decorating for Christmas knowing it wont get done afterwards! Christmas 2006 will be really interesting this year. It'll be bitter sweet for me being the 1st Christmas without my Mom, however we're looking forward to the small wonders with Mason. He will be a welcomed (early) Christmas Blessing!
