what a week

Finally, I am able to sit down and get online for a minute. It has been very busy the last few days at the Kaye household. We celebrated my Aunt Karen's birthday, went to Christmas Eve service and spent the evening at my sister's house, opened gifts Christmas morning and spent most of the day with Adam's family and then spent the evening at my Gram's. I tried to soak up every minute with our families because I know it will be awhile before we see them again, possibly next Christmas. I didn't expect to get emotional saying goodbye's, but it hit me all at once and I started to cry as I hugged my cousin Taylor. I know I will see them all again, but it is still hard knowing that I won't be able to drive up to Dallas anytime I want.

For Christmas Mason got a Baby Einstein Playstation (Exersaucer) and he loves it. He took a long nap this afternoon and after he woke up, we took him out to the living room and showed it to him. The boy was smiling from ear to ear and wanted to taste everything (all of his toys get a taste test these days). Once he realized he could turn around, he didn't stop. I have great video footage of it and a few pics. Nothing better then seeing your son discover new things.

Speaking of new things, Mason also received a new car seat for Christmas from his Mimi & Granddad. Mason is way too big for his infant carseat and we got the go ahead to turn him around. The new seat looks so comfortable and he looks like such a big boy in his new ride. The best part is watching his face as he looks outside at the world around him. His face lights up now that he can see Mommy & Daddy driving. Actually, now that he can see us while we are driving, he doesn't get upset when the vehicle is stopped. Our little boy is growing up.
