Mason is 4 months old!!!
He has grown so much over this past month!!! He is making all kinds of new noises. He's been sitting up with our help for several weeks, but now, he's starting to try to sit up himself. It will probably be a while before he can, but it's awesome to watch him try.
He has rolled over a few times, but he's not doing it consistently. Speaking of rolling over, tummy time is so much more fun than it used to be! Now that he can support his weight up on his elbows, he's much more tolerant of it. We've passed our goal of 10 minutes at a time, which I never thought would happen! While he's doing tummy time, he scoots a lot, so I think he's much more interested in crawling than rolling.

He's interested in toys now. He really likes rattles and Sophie. He's not really reaching for them on his own yet, but if you put them in his hands, he will play with them. He's very interested in chewing on everything.
He and Bailey are also starting to take more interest in each other. I've even caught her snuggling with him a couple times. :-)
Don't worry...I was laying beside them the whole time. He fell asleep nursing and I only got up to take this picture.
He laughs and coos a lot and it is super adorable. He's definitely finding his voice and experimenting with all the sounds he can make.
We got to go on a date night to Josh's company's holiday party. Since we were already getting dressed up, we used the opportunity to take some family pictures in front of our Christmas tree. This also happened to be the one year anniversary of the day we found out we were pregnant, so it makes me love the pictures even more! Anna and John babysat for us, so Mason got to hang out with Savannah for a bit! Here are some photos John snapped for us before we left.
Pearls and bowties!
Who wouldn't want to smooch those cheeks?!?
Josh bought this Tigger for me while he was at Disney. It used to be bigger than Mason. Now it's not.
He had another play date with Savannah when we babysat so Anna and John could have a date night. We did something crazy and ventured out with two infants. We decided to meet friends for wings. We were hesitant since we had only kept both babies a couple times even at home, but I'm glad we did it.
Mason met Santa twice this month. Both times were right after a nap that we woke him up from, so we didn't get any smiling pictures, but we did get some cute ones!
The first Santa was at John's work.
So stereotypical...pulling Santa's beard.
I think this is so sweet!
We wanted to get a picture with both the babies, but he was kind of over it at this point.
This was the second Santa, at our birthing center. We got to see the nurse that led our natural birth class!
LOVE the bowtie and suspenders!
We went to VA and he got to meet his great grandma, great aunt and uncle and Josh's cousin.
With his great grandma! We had him dressed really cute, but it was literally about 80 degrees in the nursing home. He was getting so fussy because he was so hot, so we put him in lighter clothing. I don't even know why we had this in his diaper bag in December, but I'm SO glad we did!
With his great uncle KK. I have a feeling these two will get along great! He has the best Donald Duck voice!
We rode there and back in the same day and he did great on both rides. He slept for the majority of the ride both ways.
