What's Next?

As most of you know Mason can't yet talk (coherently) and we know the first question when he can talk, will be what do you want to do when you grow up? So as a service to Mason we are experimenting with many situations to try and find out what he wants to be. For those of you that are thinking....um, How about a fireman? Well that seems easy doesn't it? Except Mason is afraid of the fire siren. Kind of a deal breaker. (I'll go to the call in a few minutes when they shut that siren off!) Well, how about working in a pharmacy you ask? He really doesn't like to be around drugs....or take them.... at all . He does like the big robot in the back of our pharmacy, but that could prove distracting! He doesn't like scary people either, and there are a lot that come into the pharmacy! So we have been putting him in some different scenarios. Trying to see what he would like to do. (so we can stop working already!) Here are some different ideas!
(if you can't see the pictures just click on them and they will become full sized!)











Mason could ride along with you while you Mow and.....tell you where you missed a spot!






He may even consider being the baby they test small items out and see if they can fit in his mouth. Like this entire pacifier that doesn't even slow him down!









We thought long and hard about the next job... It's always nice when you come home and there is a nice meal on the table. Mason does love tasting things and eating. He also loves measuring cups and things inside cupboards. So why not be a chef or a baker?If you are a professional chef or baker, everytime you see the heating pad glove....you probably shouldn't crack up! Mason thinks it's hilarious! He also thinks it's very funny when you do dishes and put the rubber gloves on.



Hmmn. What next?

Mason could alway work for John Deere and test the seats for comfort. This one seems to pass the poke test. (it's very accurate!)



Then there is always.......
An acrobat. During his naps he gets into these weird spots and sleeps. We never know what to expect when we go in his room. He was in a C shape for this picture.



Oh yeah and then...
He could work for a lawnmowing service and be the gear shifter. If someone needs to go in reverse...he's your guy!


Well we don't know which of these lucrative postitions will work out. (Hopefully none of them!)
Maybe he will just have to grow up and find out like everyone else. HA!
Mason is a crawling fool now. I set him down on a mat in the kitchen while I was baking cookies and before I knew it he was doing laps around the island. Each time looking up with a "look at me crawling around" look. Baby gate time is very close too. Mason thinks it's funny when I sit him in the office to immediately SPRAWL (sprint/crawl) down the hall (now it's rhyming...somebody call Dr. Suess) towards the stairs. He even pauses....looks back at me...and starts laughing. You can tell this little boy wasn't switched at birth...he's all ours!

Hope you all have a great day! Love, Brian Jamie and Mason
