Exciting News & A Recap

It is Friday! This does not happen often, but this is my Friday too. I have to work four until midnight tonight, then I have until Tuesday off.

Last night was a rough night here at the house. Mason seemed to get a tummy ache around 2:30 and we could not get him to settle. Tim finally put him next to him in bed and rubbed his tummy until he fell asleep. The spot he laid him in? Mine, so I went and slept in the recliner in Mason's room. He is doing much better now, but I am sure he will be over tired later on.

I was up at 6:30 this morning when Mason decided he was hungry. I put him back to sleep and decided to get my butt on the treadmill instead of going back to sleep. I did 2.4 miles @ 3.4 mph and 8% incline. I missed my walk yesterday because of the doctor's appointment so I knew I had to get on the treadmill today. I also feel better when I am done than I did when I started!

Mason's baptism is tomorrow in a private session at St Mary's (the same church we were married in). We met with the Priest the other night and he asked if we would consider doing the next child' baptism during Mass. It is tough because we do not normally go to this church and there are so many people that go to Mass on Sunday. I did not want to stand up there in front of all of those people. Maybe next time.

I have some exciting news! I got an email yesterday telling me I have been chosen to be a Sweat Pink Ambassador! I am so excited and honored. From the little bit of exploring I have done it looks like a great community of girls and I am happy to be apart of it. I ordered my tank top and cannot for that it to come along with some sweat pink shoelaces! This will help me keep myself in check and now that I am an ambassador I cannot slack in my fitness and health!

I forgot to show you guys the cake and cupcakes I make last weekend.

I did a chocolate and vanilla cake with vanilla butter cream for the family. They took it home from the party and said they enjoyed it. I made chocolate cupcakes with vanilla butter cream and vanilla cupcakes with chocolate butter cream for the guests of the party. The party was for a co-worker of mine that is moving to western NY next week. He has been per diem in my office since 1997 and he is the reason a lot of us have been able to take vacation time. He is always willing to work and help out, we are definitely going to miss him.

Update on Mason: He is fine. I saw a doctor I had not seen yet and he was great. He has a three month old at home. He said that Mason probably has a cold with congestion and a runny nose. There is not much we can do except use the humidifier and the vapor bath. They were impressed with his strength and ability to roll and almost pull himself up.
When they weighed him I was shocked! The kid is already over 15 pounds. If he keeps growing anymore I am going to have to see if Target or Walmart will exchange a box of diapers for a different size.

Have a great weekend all! It is supposed to be almost 50 degrees here this weekend so we are going to enjoy it. Rumor has it that the temperatures will drop into a deep freeze next week.
