I took Mason to see the doctor on Monday and he has a viral infection with blisters on the back of his little throat. Poor baby. He also had the start of an ear infection probably because of teething. I got a prescription for an antibiotic for his ear and the viral infection just has to run it's course. He is not eating very well and it is miserable for us both!!! Sleep~What's that? Not that Mason has ever been the best sleeper but for the past two nights he is up because he doesn't want to lay down. He is so tired he will fall asleep on our shoulders very easily but when you lay him down he just starts to scream. We are making it but it has been some very long days and nights around here! Mason is up to 19 lbs. What a load!!!
I went to the OB yesterday for a check-up (ahem~we all know what I mean!) and my doctor is just awesome. She is so caring and kind towards me. She can't wait to talk about Mason and I am all for that! Well when I was weighing in I had an enormous smile on my face because the nurse didn't have to push the lower weight over to the right like she normally has to. Now without going into too much detail (I'm not that happy yet) I am officially 3 lbs below my pre-pregnancy weight. Nursing holds a little fat on you to help the baby. I would love to think that I have about 10-15 lbs of fat that will just disappear when I stop nursing, but I think I am in denial over that so more realistically it is about 3-5 lbs just hanging on to help out Mason. I started working out again so hopefully I will be able to really see a difference and start to be healthy. Goal is to be down about 5-7 more lbs. Mason's weight gain is helping me on my strength training.
I found one of Gracelyn's old headband bows and put it on Cannon yesterday. He would have been an adorable little girl but he is all boy for sure!!!
A SERIOUSLY good snack!! I have found them at United, Walmart, and Target. 
Mason is so darn cute.

Those pics of Cannon are going to come in handy when he is a teenager! You now have some useful blackmail! (just kidding!) :)
Glad the doctor's appt (ahem) went well! Men should have to go through something just as horrible!
Take care,

Pics of the boys are so cute. I love them so much. I am glad that every thing is going well and Mason is feeling better. Take care and give the kids a big hug and kiss from Aunt Kassie.
Love
Kassie
Well, you know me we always have to see what our little boys look like in the head bands!!! CUTIE PIE!!!!
The boys are growing up so quickly that I am going to have to start coming up with different ways in telling Gracie that she is my favorite...haha!!!
There is just something about Cannon wanting to come up to you to give you a kiss that is just irresistable. And Mason makes me want to never put him down the way he snuggles.
Those pictures of Cannon are just wrong! Cute, but wrong!
Poor guy now has to live the rest of his life dreading the moment when you pull those out again!
(My suggestion would be at his rehersal dinner!
I love the bow on Cannon. He makes such a handsome little boy though. So sorry to hear about Mason. We will be praying for a speedy recovery.
Those pics are just priceless! :) So sorry that Mason has been sick--our clan is JUST now feeling better! By the way, those chips are awesome huh! We found them and are now completely addicted. Great job on the weight loss too--you are looking awesome!
