Mason the Sitter

Mason turned 5 months old on Sunday, July 18th. He weighs about 16 1/2 lbs, and 27 inches (give or take some squirming). He has started solid foods, and loves peas!!!

Mason can sit on his own for about 30 seconds before he tips.

Mom-are you seeing me? Am I really doing this?

Fun with Friends

When we got home from New York, we got to spend some quality time with our best friends from Indiana. Aaron, Emily, Noah and Breven. Our other best friends the Bennetts joined us too, Stephanie and Beau, poor Dustin had to work. We hung out at our house and then took the kids to the Park, let's see if you can see who the kids are.

Jeremy held Beau and Breven trying to convince me he could handle twins.

After the fun day, we got to join Aaron and Emily for their anniversary dinner with a date night. Aaahhh!

Jeremy and I went to a Mets home game at Citi Field in Queens.
Beautiful sunset of the stadium.


We made a quick trip up to Hanover, MA to visit Mason's Great Grandma O'Brien.
Great Grandma and Mason's cousins, Grace and Emma.

Daddy and Mason hanging out.
This is the most ridiculous thing we had ever seen. Instead of MA spending tax dollars to widen their highways they just allow you to drive in the breakdown lane during rush hour...What do you do if you should actually break down?!
While in NY Mason found his appetite growing so we started veggies. This was his 1st experience with Peas.

We had a great trip visiting all of our family. Thanks to everyone for showing us great hospitality and opening up your homes to us. We love you all very much!
