The County Fair

Mason's first time at the County Fair. I look forward to going to the Fair every year. We had a great time trying all the food(like the fried Oreos) and looking at all the animals.

My Blessing

This is the first layout I have done for Mason's baby album. This layout has a lot of meaning to me. Thanks to my awesome friend Meghan I have these pictures to look back on! Thanks Again hun!

The Hammock

My brother and his wife bought this Amby Hammock for me and we love it...I love how it cradles Mason's body and his head...He sleeps really good in it...I also love how it fits in our room nicely without taking up a lot of space...We have him in a corner in our bedroom. At first we had to put Mason between two wedges, but now I only use a half of one because he favors one side over the other. He looks so cute all snuggled inside it!

1 Month Old

Mason turned 1 month on Aug. 31st...WOW time is already flying buy!! I took Mason to his 1 month doctors appointment on Thursday and he got a shot and a prick on the foot. I cried when he got his shot...I felt so bad for him. I told DD he had to take Mason to his next appointment because I can't take seeing Mason get his shots it just kills me. The doctor gave me a prescription for some numbing cream, so maybe it will make things a lot less painful for Mason next time.
Mason weighs 10.13 pounds and is 22inches long growing like a weed.

Baby Love

I asked my girlfriend Meghan to come over to take pictures of my little man. I had big expectations from my little man and Mr. Mason had something else in mind. Mason has been very, very gassy and he spits up. When he spits up it's like a gush of milk coming up and you wonder if anything he just ate stayed down. Well Mason cried pretty much the whole time Meghan was at our house. He just didn't feel good that day. The Pictures Meghan did get are awesome and I couldn't of asked for anything better!

WELCOME

DD and I had a healthy bouncing baby boy
July 31st 11:02pm!
Mason David MacRae
He was 7.9lbs 20inches long and has a FULL set of hair!
We were in labor for 30 hours and we pushed for 6 off and on. I would like to say I tried really hard to bring Mason into this world naturally, but God had a different plan for us. I had to have a C-section and I really didn't want a C-section. This is why I pushed for so long! I couldn't take the pain any more and that's after 2 epidurals. The epidural stopped working for me. I was put to sleep during delivery, but I was ok with that. It was a long and rough delivery, but we are so blessed with a handsome baby boy!
Here are a few pics of our little man.




What a proud Daddy!

We look just our Daddy

Bath Time

I thought these pictures of Howard were funny...DD gave Howard a much needed bath this past weekend. Howard really hates getting a bath, but at the same time I think he likes the attention. He was really good at listening and staying...I was really proud of him. DD and I both feel he is so animated in all his expresions and actions. We are laughing at him all the time.
