Life getting in the way
Sorry it's been so long since we've posted any pictures of Mason. I could think up a lot of excuses, but I'll just get on with the blogging.
First, Jeni is doing very well. She is now 31 weeks pregnant (!) and is feeling all kinds of movement. I can push on a lump and our #2 will push back which is a fun little game until Jeni makes me stop. Jeni's due date is still December 18, so we probably won't be traveling much for the holidays. Of course, if Jeni had her way, the baby would come a few weeks early and we could make it home for Christmas.
Second, Mason is also dong very well. He is making good progress on potty training and wears underpants most of the time. He still has accidents, but seems to be figuring out when he needs to go. We are rewarding him for certain milestones with "Thomas the Tank Engine" trains and track pieces. Right now he has two trains, a caboose, and three pieces of track. The trains and caboose together are longer than the three tracks, which is kind of pathetic.
Mason is also talking or singing all of the time now. Sometimes he'll make up his own songs or stories, which is fun for Jeni and I. He has also decided that the new baby's name is "Pea Soup." We don't know where this came from, but it has been consistent for a few weeks now. So I guess "Pea Soup" it is.
On to the pictures!
A few weeks back, we went to the Zoo with Mason's Bubba and Grandpa. Everyone was excited to see the apes.
After the zoo, we went to Lalo's Mexican Restaurant for food and margaritas.
After a few drinks, you want to join the band on stage.
And you end up riding a polar bear before the night is through.
Actually, an older couple did look askance at Jeni when she was sharing some of her (non-alcoholic) margarita with Mason.
