Happy Monday!
Mason is one month old today - I cannot believe it has been a whole month already.
He was much easy to get a photo from today than when he was a week old. He was great when this picture was taken too. Then he got fussy. He has been fussy at times the last few days. I wonder if he has a tummy ache or gas. Sometimes it is just another burp he needs to get out. Last night he was fussy for two hours and we were trying to get him to calm down before we gave him a bath. He would not calm so we just put him in the water and tada! The bath was the calmer. He was fine in the little tub and while we washed him then we put some night time lotion on him, fed him, and he was fast asleep. We will try to remember that little trick :)
I will do a little questionnaire on Mason after his doctors appointment in a couple weeks. I do not know his measurements.
I do enjoy that he is more awake during the day now and looking around more. I noticed the other day that he was watching his mobile. He was also looking in his mirror on the swing too. It is amazing how much he has developed in a month.

Last week we spent a lot of time at the lake. Tim's aunt rented a camp for the week and it was very relaxing. Here are some photos from the week:

Nutmeg loved her swim & her boat ride

I stepped on the scale today - 203.4 lbs. It is a Monday habit that I have gotten back into. I am still struggling with my eating. This past week should not count though. We were at the lake almost every night and we went to the county fair on Saturday. You cannot go to a fair and not eat some fair food :)
One positive is that I am walking more. I have a walk planned for tonight, hopefully the weather holds. I feel good and pretty much back to my old self before giving birth. The lack of sleep at night is starting to catch up with me. I am not getting up to feed Mason as quickly and easily as I was three weeks ago. Tim has been amazing and he started getting up for a feeding at night. This makes it easier on me and helps me get a little more sleep.
