Mason Update

The other day Mason went to the eye doctor.  It was our third time going because I have always been concerned about his vision since mine is so bad.  Unfortunately my fear came true.  Mason has my astigmatism.  Mason will be in eye glasses no later than age 4.  The doctor didn't want to put him in glasses yet because he would just fight them and it would do more bad than good.  We will be going back in 6 months to get his eyes checked out again.

Mason is FINALLY potty trained!!! It is very exciting. No more diapers except at bedtime.  Mason loves wearing his "big boy pants."  He has been doing great and I hope it continues.

I had a couple days off from work this week using up my vacation time before the end of the year.  I loved getting to spend some quality time with Mason. We went swimming which is Mason's absolute favorite.  It was nice enough that we got to take multiple trips to the park.  We also drove around and looked at Christmas lights.  Mason LOVED it.  He really enjoys all of the lights around town, especially the trains.  I think we spotted 3 or 4 in town.  We attended more of Aunt Bree's basketball games which we really enjoy.  Mason loves to socialize with all of the kids there. Mason also enjoyed a one on one ice cream date with Mommy.  It has been great getting to spend so much time together.

Become a Partner in Hope

Today is February 4th, which also happens to be World Cancer Day.  In honor of World Cancer Day, the radio station I listen to everyday at work had many cancer survivors, and parents of cancer patients tell their stories.  Every time a parent or a child told their story, I was almost in tears.  In every story they all said "I never thought it would happen to me."  It is so true, no one ever thinks it is going to happen to them.  I couldn't even begin to imagine if I was told that my son has cancer.  I don't want to even think about it.  After hearing all of these stories I decided I wanted to do something to help.  So I went on to stjude.org and became a partner in hope.  I signed up to donate to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital monthly.  It comes straight out of your credit card or bank account.  You can choose the dollar amount to donate per month.  Any amount helps so much.  It is so easy to do and I hope others wi...

2015 Review

Happy New Year!!! Mason and I have made it to another year.  It seems like such an accomplishment every year.  2015 was a great year for Mason and I. We started out 2015 with Ryan and Leah's wedding.  Mason made an adorable ring bearer and he had a blast dancing the night away.  Also in January Mason had his second surgery.  He took it like a champ.  There were some positives and negatives to having been through it before but the recovery this time went a lot smoother. I had my 1 year anniversary working at TCB in February.  That means my 2 year is quickly approaching.  I am still enjoying it there.  My family tries to accuse me of converting over to a Knights fan, but I say I just like to support everyone! In May a lot of things happened.  Mason turned the big THREE! I don't know how I can be the mother of a three year old already, but I am.  He has grown up so much and he won't slow down. I applied for a mortgage loan and a...

GoodNites Tru-Fit Real Underwear Review

Ever since Mason has been potty trained and wearing big boy pants it has been a struggle at night time to get him to wear a diaper.  He cannot yet make it through the night without wetting the bed.  I went through a phase where I would have to duck tape Mason's diaper on in order for him not to rip it off in the middle of the night.  I had recently used up all of his diapers so I went to the store to check out what my options were.  I found the perfect solution to my problem!  I found GoodNites Tru-Fit Underwear.  They are real underwear that you can insert an absorbent pad in.  I was skeptical about how well they would actually work because Mason's diaper is usually full in the morning but I was pleasantly surprised!  I have not had one leak on me yet. I had never heard of GoodNites underwear before but I am so glad that I found them! No more diapers for Mason! Below I have posted a link to purchase GoodNites Underwear.  I have not yet shopp...
