more friends

Mason,

You're not much of a socializer, but you're blessed with a mama who is, so you're always meeting new friends. Baby Wesley and his mommy Susannah came to visit.

Wesley is nearly three months older than you are, but you look bigger than he does!

This week we went to your Auntie's new apartment and you met her other fur babies, Felix and Reagan, Madison's siblings.

You'd never seen kitties before! They were obsessed with your stroller and kept hopping into it.

Somehow I think Madison will be more tolerant of you in future years than the cats will be.

I'll turn you into a social butterfly yet!

Love,

Mommy

meeting Madison

Mason,

Your auntie is a pet lover, and has an adorable dog and two cats. You got to meet your "cousin" Madison today, Ellen's pug. You and Madison are about the same size, each weighing between 12 and 13 pounds.

Uncle Luke hopped in for a family picture. You look like a little animal yourself--your fleece's hood has ears.

This next picture is my favorite. Madison wanted to shake.

Then, for some unknown reason, you melted down. Madison had never heard a baby cry before, and she was very concerned.

She ran right over to where you and Daddy were standing, and spent an amazing amount of time standing up on her hind legs, trying to see what the fuss was about.

Really, Mason, what was the fuss about? Madison didn't even bark at you. But her cute little pug face was crinkled with worry.

We'll see how much Madison cares about you once you become mobile. I have a feeling you'll like her more than she likes you.

Love,

Mommy
