Cody Brent Mason

Added by Stacey! Steph and I Wanted to post so everyone can see the new addition!

After waiting and waiting Steph went into the doctors office on her due date October 29th and found out that she was far enough along to get started. She went right over the the hospital. They were very busy and she did not get her on Pitocin until 12:20. She got her epidural about three hours later and at 9:48 PM had a beautiful baby boy.

Cody Brent Mason! He is so cute...

We all agreed that he looks like Joels dad... Grampa Mason.

He immediatley got his fingers to his mouth.



He has a good grip already. Look he got a hold of the oxygen tube.




Proud Mom and Dad.






Proud Aunt Stacey! I was so grateful Steph wanted me to be there. I love babies. Nothing better.






He loves his fingers. He had them in his mouth all the time.





He is for sure a keeper. He has a lot of dark brown hair. Weighed in at 6 lbs and 12 oz. Just a little squirt! We had bets. I lost! I thought he would be bigger than Parker. I think we all did. He was 18 1/2 inches long. Steph was so strong. She had an hour that her epidural quit working and she was so strong. Joel was wonderful to her during Labor and it was great to watch them celebrate and enjoy this new baby.






Thanks again to Joel and Steph for sharing this wonderful baby with us all! We love you!

Happy Birthday My Little Man

I cannot believe that my little Parker is 2! Oh how time FLYS!
It seems like just yesterday we were in the hospital greeting our little man into the world.
And now we are waiting for his little brother, and having a birthday party!!

I decided that we were going to have a Halloween party theme this year! It was so much fun watching all the kids with the Witches Brew! We made home made root beer in a cauldron with the dry ice. Everyone thought that that was so neat! And it sure tasted GOOD!

Mom decided to make a pinata instead of buying one. It was Frankenstein if you were wondering. All the kids got a chance to smack at him. Parker was not really into it, until dad showed him that there was CANDY inside.

Well lets just say Parker is a very spoiled 2 year old!
Mom and dads gifts:
5 Different types of dinosaurs

Thank you to all my family and friends who could share my big day with me! I love all my toys, and gifts! Thank You for loving and caring about me so much! I am very lucky to have a family like you!

By the end of dinner, cake and ice cream, pinata, presents, running, screaming, and chasing, I was READY TO GO HOME AND NAP!!
As you can see...... ha ha ha!!

He Bloomed And Grew! And Now He's 2!!

Well all mom's are convinced that there baby is the cutest in the world.... But I just know!!! For 2 years in a row, Parker has won 1rst place in the cutest baby contest in our town!! He is such a studd!! Look out little ladies!! Parker got to ride on the float in the parade with the other baby's in the other groups that had won. He loved hearing all the people cheer for him. Mom was so proud of her little man!!

To my favorite little Megg! I know how hard it is to understand things when your so small so I found you this picture to help you understand a little more. Aunt Stephanie has a baby growing in her belly just like this. Once you were in your mommy's tummy too! Can you believe that?? And know your a BIG BIG girl. I wanted you to see and understand, and pretty soon my baby will come out of my tummy and you can hold him and play with him. We are going to name the new baby Cody Bruce Mason. What do you think about that? I love you Megg! Call me after you see this, I want to hear what you think.
Love Auntie Stephanie
(PS Sorry about the graphic wordings mom!!)

Guess what I am going to be for Halloween??! Parker LOL!!
Grandma Cindy came over the other day holding a Shopko bag and a little pitch fork. Curious little Parker opens the bag to find his Halloween costume. Immediately Parker wanted to put it on and show off his stuff! It was the cutest thing in the world. He thought that he was the coolest kid! He ran around outside showing off for all the neighbors and posing for pictures. We cannot wait for trick or treating time. This will be the first year Joel and I will have the opportunity to watch Parker actually enjoy and understand Halloween and trick or treating! We are ecstatic!!!!! Hopefully baby Cody will make it in time so his big brother can show him the ropes!!
