During our vacation, Tony and I took Mason on what I would consider his first "major" road trip. We went to see Grandma and Grandpa Gaines in Oklahoma. Mason was a pretty good traveller. The ride down was fairly uneventful with only two stops. The way back was a bit rougher, but I think that's our fault since we left mid-morning (instead of middle-of-the-night).
Here are a few pictures of Mason, the now CRAWLING baby, during our time off. Seven months and crawling. I fear 9 months and walking could be a reality...eek!
Mason seems to be teething and working on some more teeth. The teething may have made him a little less smiley than usual. But he's always expressive. Just check out his little facial expressions with his eyebrows.
Grandpa Gaines got some good bonding time with Mason. Although Mason gets a case of "stranger danger" with some non-strangers who aren't seen often, Mason was content to sit with Grandpa Gaines for a good while, but not without giving him quite the funny look.
In case you're wondering who he's turning his head looking at, it's his mommy, of course. Haha!
Grandpa time over!
Here's a few pictures of Mason getting kisses from Grandma.
While we were in Oklahoma, it became apparent that the bassinet insert in Mason's Pack n Play was no longer safe. The little wild man was trying to pull himself up and out, so we ended up removing the bassinet in Oklahoma. Mason enjoys playing in the Pack n Play. Mommy enjoys it too...it allows me to worry a bit less about what he's getting into!
It was definitely a fun, restful and productive week. Productive, you say? How was it productive? Well, when we got back from Oklahoma, we found a house we love and put it under contract! Assuming inspections go well, and closing goes through [on April 15], our first home will surely be the subject of many a blog entry. Stay tuned!
