The Hills 8-27-09

We are excited to see everyone for Justin's birthday party! Aunt Manda, Megan and Morgan & Aunt Connie come tonight, Papa & Great Grandma and Grandpa Metzler come tomorrow and then the whole clan for the party on Saturday! We are so excited to have so many family and friends over to celebrate with us :)

Things here are going well. Mason and I have had LOTS of bonding time since I'm nursing. He eats at least every two hours - sometimes more. We took him to his doctors appointment on Monday and he was down to 7 lb 10 oz (he was 8 lb 9 oz at birth and 8 lb 1 oz when we left the hospital). They wanted to see him back on Tuesday to check his weight again and do another bilirubin (sp?) test. He was borderline on Monday for jaundice. We took him back and luckily his levels were down and he gained 4 oz! Yeah :) So now he doesn't have to go back until next Friday! Mason is a really good baby...we can't complain - and he's SO cute :)

Here are some pictures from the last few days!





Justin and Mason - with their SpongeBob stickers














Cereal tower....that mommy would probably not let happen.....












....because of this :) That's okay - Gramma cleaned it up!




Making Mason beautiful for his first doctors appointment



On Monday night we had just finished watching Mr. Brooks at 10:30pm and there was a loud knock on the door - dogs went crazy and we were a little freaked out....then in walks Uncle Ry to surprise us! He had Tuesday off so he came and spent the day with us :) It was so nice for him to come meet his godson - we appreciate you driving all the way here! Love you brother!



Uncle Mikey and Justin making a hockey rink out of play-doh :)





What an angel....







He has been staying awake for longer periods of time - but still sleeps quite a bit!










Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Rob had to work this week and Uncle Mikey helped us with the lawn work. HUGE help! It's supposed to

Great pictures -- I seriously have been checking your blog every day waiting for updates... I love hearing about/seeing new babies!!

I think that Mason looks a little like Justin -- especially in the "what an angel" picture. So adorable :)
