Mason's favorite thing to do right now is say BOO over and over again until you just can't act scared of him. LOL! He will run behind the couch and pretend like he is hiding and then jump out and yell BOO. Or, he will just be staring at you while eating dinner and start saying it. As parents, Matt and I laugh every single time at him. With that being said, he is saying more and more words everyday. He is doing everything that I do and repeating everything I say, so you know what that means.....we have to start watching what comes out of our mouths ;).
Downfalls would be what people would like to call "fits." He does not like to be told no, and when I tell him no, he sternly repeats it back to me. He also does not want to be taken from outside to inside. Yesterday he threw his cup at me and hit me he got so mad. So, this begins the time outs. Mason will actually sit in time out until I tell him it's time to come out. As of now, this works so I am not trying anything else.
I can not complain about Mason at all. Even as a baby with everything he went thru he has always been so good. Last Friday I had to take him to the eye doctor with me and he was well behaved. We were there for 4 hours and that is an eternity in a one year old's eyes. I will have to say I could not have done it without my mom there but he was still a little sweetheart :).
We are enjoying this summer so much with him. We took him to the zoo last month but it was rainy and cold so it wasn't much fun. Plus he came down with something viral and didn't feel well. Swimming is a lot of fun but he doesn't last long. We are going to plan a family vacation to the beach. Although the sprinkler freaked him out I hope he likes the sand :).
He is a growing blonde hair blue eyed boy who has his mommy and daddy wrapped around his finger :). I can not wait for the next 6 months of his life!
Here are a few pictures of him. The first one is from a year ago and it is amazing how much he has changed.
