It's been way too long!

I can't believe it's been over a year since I last posted on this blog. I am almost ashamed that I fell off for so long. I was really hoping I could keep it up so we could have something to look back at and remember. Kason has grown so much in the last year. He is such a little boy now. At this very moment, he loves to wear his new hat and play with his new fishing pole. If he's outside, he is very happy. I'm pretty sure he would eat and sleep outside if we would let him. He is also now in a toddler bed and he loves it. He now sleeps in his own bed and sleeps through the night. He goes to bed at about 8 oclock and wakes around 7. He still loves to eat. His favorite is cheese but he eats most anything. He recently started enjoying Mac and cheese. He drinks soy milk but we have given him regular milk the last few days and he seems to be doing ok with it. Fingers crossed that he continues to do well with it. He is definitely a combination of his dad and I. He loves cars and motorcycles and can point out motorcycles just by the sound. He also loves sports. Anything with balls makes him happy. I will post some pictures hopefully tomorrow when I can get on the laptop. Things have changed for me and Titus as well. Titus now works for a new company that he is enjoying. He gets along with the guys really well and enjoys hanging out with them. I am back at work now which is one reason I have been too busy to keep up with the blog. I have been with my company for a little over a year now. I am now a manager and manage a team of 9. I enjoy my job and the people I work with as well. I will do my best to get back on tomorrow to post pictures and update again. Good night!

Updates on Kason

It has been so long since I updated the blog. I feel really bad, especially since Kason has hit so many milestones that last couple of week. Below are some things that have happened.

Kason has 2 teeth that have broken through the gums. Both bottom front teeth.

He can sit on his own for quite a while. We still sit with him because he loses his balance trying to reach for toys.

He has started solid foods. He loves pretty much everything. He has tried cereal, oatmeal, sweet potatoes and avocado. In a couple of days he will try carrots. I am making his baby food so it has been fun and interesting.

Kason stayed with his Mammy and Poppy for almost a week and he did great. This was his first time away from us and on an overnight trip.

He is now 18lbs and about 27" long.

Below are his 3 month old pics that we just got back. Enjoy!






He loves eating and sitting on his own.

Road Trip to Mammy and Poppy's

We made our first big road trip to go visit Mammy, Poppy and a lot of other people this past weekend. It is normally a 4 hour trip and it took us between 4 1/2 and 5 hours. Kason did so well. He slept the whole way. Below are some pictures of everyone he got to see and meet while we were there.

There is a new post below but I wanted to keep these two separate. We went to YaYa and HaPa's house this past Sunday for lunch and Kason got to meet his great Grandpa and Grandma Prater and his Great Aunt Diane. Below are some pictures that were taken.
