1 month old!!

Mason is one month old today!  It is crazy how fast this month has gone by, it seems like he was born yesterday!  He is growing like a weed.  I weighed him here at home cause he doesn't have an appointment until he is two months old, and the scale said he is already a whopping 11 pounds 4 ounces!! You can definitely tell how much he is grown!  When we are out and about, I get asked how many "month's" old he is...mind you this was before he was even a month old!!  Everyone always exclaims about how big he is!  His collarbone should be completely healed by now or within a few days!  He is doing great!  Eats like nobody's business.  He was also baptized this past Sunday!  We are extremely blessed!
 This is a picture from his baptism...apparently I couldn't smile haha.
This is Mason today at one month! Look at all this new chunkiness!!

On another note, Dan is gone for a month to pre-deployment training.  He will be home for two months, then he has to go to another month's worth of training.  Then he will be home for a month or so and it is off to Afghanistan for 7 months.  It is going to be very tough, but we are putting our trust in God's hands.  Dan is going to miss alot of Mason's big milestones.  We will be going back home to the mainland for the duration of his deployment.  Hopefully it goes by fast so our family can be together again.

A Boy!!

On April 25, 2011 at 3:11 p.m. HST we had a little boy named Mason! He was 8 pounds exactly and 19 inches long!  He broke his collarbone on the way out due to shoulder dystocia, but it is healing well and should be healed by the end of May!  He is a beautiful little boy and we are extremely blessed!
Here is our little guy!!
