Since Mason turned 8 months old yesterday he decided that it was time to start crawling! It has been sooooo exciting to watch him figure it out! He is so determined to get at whatever we put in front of him, mostly that nuk or the netbook. On the other hand, this was the first milestone that he has started to reach that literally made my heart skip a beat because he is getting more and more independent! Some might say he also has a very independent personality already...and I thought I was a pretty good kid, so it must be Derek's behavior as a child we are getting payback for! HA! Well, in any case enjoy the video!
Mason was born 8.26.10 and has been lighting up our every waking moment since. He was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis, a chronic life long, life shorting, fatal genetic disease, at just 3 weeks of age. It is an invisible disease that you can't see from the outside, but one that is clogging up mostly his digestive system (making it hard to digest and absorb nutrients) and respiratory system (making him fight for every breath), but also other organs. There is no cure as of yet, but we are hopeful for that to happen in his lifetime. CF is only one part of him. We have high hopes and dreams that he will become anything he sets his heart to.
