Mason's first Christmas was awesome. We had to pretend Christmas was a day early, but he didn't know any different! Mason met Uncle John for the first time, and I think they got along quite well. John's nickname for Mason is "Choco." I guess that's what they call little white boys with "clear" eyes down in the really really South. It was so great to finally have the whole family together on Christmas. It's been a long time. Mason loved his gifts ~ he mostly loved the packaging. He wasn't a big fan of Santa at first, I guess the guy looks scary when it's the first thing you see waking up from a nap, but Mason warmed up to him. Justin finally made it to his first NBA game. He saw the Hawks play the Jazz. He's been living in Utah for almost 4 years, and he had to go all the way to Georgia to see the Jazz play. The Hawks creamed them.
We wish we could have been with Justin's family too! We missed them so much!
Now we're back in Utah. Mason had his 9 month check-up and his stats are:
Length ~ 29.3 inches 85%ile
Weight ~ 20 lbs 45%ile
BMI ~ 16.38 kg/m2 25%ile (woot woot)
Head Circ ~ 18.3 inches 75%ile
He's perfectly healthy besides a little runny nose. Yay!
Here are some pics from the week:
Happy New Year everybody! We are grateful for all the adventures and blessings we were given in 2009, and we look forward to even more to come. Love yall!

ReplyDeleteBrooke, I found your blog on Amber's. (Hope you don't mind.) It's been fun to glance through some of your posts and see what your family is up to. I especially liked the Halloween costumes, and the picture from Christmas with Mason face-to-face with that huge dog. Great shots! Anyway, I just thought I'd say hello. Hope you are well!
