Overalls and Visit from Family

I found a pair of overalls hanging in Mason's closet this past week.  His Grandma and Grandpa Steiner got them for him a couple/few months ago, but they were too big at the time.  I had kind of forgotten about them.  Fortunately, I found them before he outgrew them!  They are Size 12 Months and not a bit too big.  





If I had been thinking, I would have kept the overall outfit for this Saturday, when my folks made a quick visit.  Inevitably, my dad was wearing his overalls.  They're a bit bigger than Mason's and not the stylish Osh Kosh B'Gosh brand, but it would have made a cute picture.

As I've mentioned in other posts, Mason is going through a phase where he is not overly friendly with people he doesn't see on a regular basis.  He seems to be less fond of men than women, and seems to warm up more quickly to younger girls (probably because the majority of his caretakers are college-age girls).  

Poor Grandpa held Mason several times during the visit, but each time Mason seemed to be looking for an escape.  As Grandpa wisely put it, "Don't worry. There will be a time when that will change and he'll want to go fishing with Grandpa and ride on the tractor with Grandpa."  I'm sure he will.




Mason has definitely taken a liking to Grandma Steiner (and her big, soft, kissable [aka slobber-able] cheeks), who decided to strip him of his slobber-covered shirt right as I was going for the camera.


Can't you tell, he's just ready to take off running?  This little wild guy loves being up on his feet.


Mason also seemed to get along well with Aunt Martha.  Uncle Alex thought it was probably because she looks like a "Little Jaime."


Mason really gave Aunt Kirsten a workout, as she tried to wrangle him.  See how that mouth is always open?  That probably explains why his little chest is glistening with drool in this picture!


Mason has gotten very good at maneuvering where he wants to go.  Fortunately, Kirtsie was able to hold him securely while still giving him the freedom to wiggle around like a crazy man.
