Been too long!

WOW! It has been months since I have been on here! Life here at the Lyon's house has been very busy! With Mason is school, Stella Crawling all over the house, Brian working and my working and schooling. Life is busy!
Everything is going good. Mason is enjoying school but it ready for the Christmas break! He is talking alot better and is a happy little boy! He has got to see Santa Clause 2 times this year and sat on his lap. He told him that he wanted a train.
Stella is doing great also. She will be 9 months old this Friday! (Dec 19th) I cant believe how fast she is growing. As I said before she is crawling all over the house. She tries to pull up and stand holding onto the couch! She is also eating crackers and loves spagetti! hehe

Life here is great and we miss all you family that we dont get to see very often! Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year!

Love ya!

Labor Day cookout

Here are a few pictures from our Labor Day cookout at Dad's house. Mason had a great time playing with his cousins and driving his power wheel Truck!

Just wanted to let everyone know...please feel free to comment on this board. Below each post is a place to comment. I find sometimes that I am not sure if anyone even looks at this page, so please feel free to let me know! Talk to you all soon!

Just a little added bonus......

Our new puppy!

Well we decided to get a puppy. Mason really loves animals so we got a cocker/ papallion . She is mixed with a very small breed of dog so she is very small. Currently she is 14 weeks old and very good. She does have a tendency to chew up things, but she is just a puppy.

Mason started school!!!

Well I can't believe it but my baby boy started school. He is going to preschool at the local city schools. He attends monday thru Friday from 1-4pm. He gets to ride the school bus to school, and still gets excited every time he gets on it! He has already learned so much! Our little baby boy is growing up so so fast!

Vacation to Nelsonville

We had a blast on vacation. We went camping in Nelsonville, Ohio. The campground we stayed at was great & was only about 10 minutes from Brian's dads house. We stayed 8 days and pretty much relaxed the whole time! Here is a picture of our campsite...


We spent a few days hanging out with Brian's best buddy Doug and his daughter. We spent alot of time around the fire while the kids played, and at night time we would go on a ride looking for deer!

We also spent time with our family. Mason had a great time with his grandpa (gee-paw) as he would say! He loved the ride we took in the semi truck and got excited everytime we went over to his house.

Stella Also enjoyed the ride too! She fell asleep as soon as we took off and then woke up as soon as we stopped.


We also visited Brian's Aunt Mary and had dinner at her house. Mason really took up with her and we all had a great time! (Thanks again Mary)

We really had a great time as you can see from these pictures and can't wait to go back again!

Vacation!!!

Well we are finally going on a family vacation. We cannot afford to go too far, so this time we are heading over to Nelsonville, Ohio to go camping. We are leaving on Saturday morning and can't wait!! Both of us have been counting down the work week all week long, and we are down to one more day of work left!! Hooray for us!!

4th of July

This past weekend we went camping for the first time in our new camper. The kids did great and we had a great time! We saw the fireworks in Wilmington which were the best fireworks we had ever seen. Mason had fun playing with squirt guns and sitting around the fire. Hope everyone else had a great fourth of July weekend like we did!

New pictures

Here are some new pictures of Stella, she ia over 3 months old now & growing fast!!

~Weekend Fun~

This weekend we headed over to Nelsonville, Ohio to go to our family reunion. We really had a great time. Mason and Stella got to see their grandpa, whom they have really missed. We had such a good time getting to know all of our family at the reunion. Can't wait to get back over there to see them again!

Mason's 3rd Birthday was a blast. We took him to the zoo. He had a great time seeing all the animals. It was extremely hot, but very fun. We also bought him his first car. A Ford F-150 power wheel truck! He loves it and is starting to get the hang of driving it!

It's been TOO long!!

It has been a long time since I have updated on here. Life has been great but also hectic! Stella Marie Lyons was born March 19th, 2008, she weighed 6lbs 6oz, 19 in long. The delivery went great, and we are all in love with our little girl!!

Stella is now almost 3 months old! I cant believe how time goes by so fast!! Mason will be 3 this sunday (6-15-08) on Father's Day! We will be taking him to the zoo to celebrate, and we are going to buy a power wheel for him. Not sure who is excited more about that, Brian or Mason! lol

I will try to get this updated more, so you can watch our babies grow with us!

37weeks 2 days!

OK, well I went to the doctor today at 37 weeks 2 days, and didnt get the exciting news I was hoping for! I am 1cm and a little thinned out. Other than that nothing!!! We was hoping that he would set an induction date, but no luck there! We just want her to get here soon, so Brian can get a day off work, after working a month straight, and before I have to start my college course back again!

We went to the hospital today to check her movement because I hadn't felt her all day today, and she looked great. Hopefully she will decide to come out soon!!!

Doctor Appointment @ 35 weeks 5 days

Well I went to the doctor today. Only about 4 weeks left till our baby girl arrives. They checked her heartbeat and while checking it we all noticed that her heart was beating different. The doctor came back in and told me that he had heard something adnormal with her heartbeat, but not to get too stressed out about it, because it can go away after birth. He said he wrote it in our chart and they will keep a close eye on it, since it can turn out to be something serious. Please keep our baby girl in your thoughts and hope for a happy healthy baby in a few weeks. They also told me that I might have to have a c section, I will find out here in a few weeks. My next appointment is Thursday next week, I will be 36 weeks and 6 days....so almost 37 weeks!!!! I am so ready to meet her!

Doctor Appointment

Well I went to the doctor yesterday. I only gained 1 lb, which brings my total to only 15 lbs so far! (Way better than the 60lbs I gained with Mason!!) They are a little concerned about the problems I have been having with the throbbing behind my eyes and the swelling of my hands and legs. They sent me to have some bloodwork done because my blood pressure was up and they think that all these symptoms might be the start of Preeclampsia. This is the condition that I had during Mason's pregnancy also, which is the reason I delivered him 2 weeks early. I now go to the Doctor every week so they can keep a close eye on my blood pressure. My next appointment is Wed. the 20th. I will keep you all updated!!

Nursery-----> OUR WORK IN PROGRESS!

Just wanted to share some pictures of our work in progress of our "nursery". Because we have a 2 bedroom house we will be sharing our room with her until she is old enough to share a room with Mason. Here are a few pictures....please excuse the mess, but as I said it is in progress...not complete! =)

Less than

Well I went to the doctor today and everything went well. I didnt gain any weight!! The baby's heartbeat was 142. I go back in 2 weeks (34 weeks).

Crafts I made this weekend....

I just wanted to share a few things that I made this weekends for our Little girls room. We are still waiting on her dresser and toybin that we ordered off the internet to get here, then we will finish our nursery. I made these letters to hang on the wall, and I also made the picture frames to match her bedding. Enjoy!!

Welcome to Our Page!

We wanted to create this webpage to keep everyone updated on our growing family.

Everything is going well. Mason had to have surgery on Tuesday to get tubes put in his ears (for the 2nd time) and to have his adnoids taken out. Everything went great and he was up and playing the next day! He is also talking alot more now, and continuing to learn new words everyday!

Brian and I are doing well. We are now about 31 weeks pregnant, which means we only have about 9 weeks (at the most) left before our baby girl arrives!! We are both very excited and can't wait to have our family complete!
