Baby Mark Update

Well I know its been a while as always but Mark is asleep right now so I thought I would do a quick update.
He is getting so big and gets more fun everyday. He loves exploring and has mastered the army crawl. He gets into everything he can get his hands on. Luckily he is still a little slow so I have time to stop him before he gets into too much trouble. But I am sure he will only get faster and faster. He loves sitting up and looking around and since he has been able to do that my life has been so much easier. At least now he doesn't have to be held 24/7.

Disneyland: March 2, 2011

Last Wednesday Mark turned 6 months old and Gramma Debbie took us to Disneyland! It was obviously Marks first time and it was a lot of fun. It was a long day and he did really good. :) He loved walking around and looking at all the people. I took him on a few rides and he HATED them! He was so scared and cried the entire time! His first ride as Pinocchio and he only cried a little bit on that. But then I took him on Pirates of the Caribbean. Now that was a BAD idea! He screamed his head off the whole time. I felt like the worst mom in the world. He was terrified and there was nothing I could do to stop him from freaking out. After that we took a little break and for his last ride I took him on Small World- but he was still hesitant. I think he lost all trust in rides. He didn't cry as bad on that one but he was still very unsure. Needless to say, I think he is still a little young for Disneyland so it may be another year or two before we go back. But I am glad we went and got to spend time with the Stewart girls. :)



Six Flags: March 6, 2011

Well Mark is a party animal! He went to Disneyland and Six Flags Magic Mountain within 4 days of each other! After we went to Disneyland we got a call from Melissa and Jack making plans to go to 6 Flags so of course Jimmy and I say lets go for it! I am not going to lie, it was pretty crazy to do, but Mark was such a trooper. He was such a good boy again. :) He was so cute with the characters too. He LOVED them!
We had a lot of fun with Jack, Melissa, and Uncle Will. Looking back it was a fun week and I am so glad we did it. Tiring, but fun! :) Baby is waking up! Gotta jam! :)
