Tristen is 7 months old!

Man how the time goes by so fast. Christmas was great Tristen got lots of great toys and he loves them all! Tristen is now 7 months old and doing so many fun things!

*He is crawling now and getting into everything!
*He is now eating more table food (he is starting to refuse baby food the doctor said that is normal she said it is normal when they are a little older but Tristen is so big that she expected it a little early with him and that is it fine to start him on regular food) it is real fun to see some of the faces he makes with the different textures of the food. he is always so much fun.
*we have started him on some basic sign language we really want him to learn like his cousins and because I hear it makes the terrible 2s that much better.

Tristen is just so much fun we feel so blessed to have him in our lives.

Tristen is crawling!

Tristens cousin Amber gave Tristen this toy train and he loves to try to drive it!

Thanks Granny!

Thanks Granny Tristen LOVES his toys. He plays with them all the time.

Is blue my color?

Tristen found a pen when I was not looking and thought it was a cool toy and when I looked this is what he looked like. Man now that he moves you can not take your eyes off him for a min. But I sure love him!

Christmas fun.

We had a great Christmas this year! We did lots of fun things, even Tristen wanted to participate in all the activities. It was so much fun having him and watching as he get excited for all the fun things.

Tristen is 6 months

*Tristen is 6 months old already can you believe it? here are some things he can do.
*Eat and eat some more.. he loves french fries and ice cream!!
*he can crawl back and sideways really well and is leaning to crawl to the front he is just a little rocky still.
*he gets to ride in a big boy car seat cause he is to big for the one you carry around now( I will update you all on how tall he is and how much he weighs on friday that when he goes to the doc)
*He love to watch dinosaur train every morning while I get some chores done.(I think it is the best it keeps him entertained and he has learned to make some of the dinosaur sounds.

Tristen having fun.

we just love to play with Tristen and he loves to play us. he just does the craziest things sometimes.

Messy, messy

Messy,messy but man I love him. I think he makes things more interesting every day.

Tristens costume

Well I took on the task and made Tristens costume this year it was a little harder then I thought it would be but did not turn out to bad for the 2nd thing I have ever made. there will be better pictures soon we are going to get family pictures and some of him in his costume professional and I will put those on here. I am proud of myself though and he likes it too he just wants to eat it up.

Five months and growing

I cant believe how big he is getting he is five months old! and look at his drool! but still just as cute as the day he was born.

FAT OR OBESE BABIES

So I was watching the today show this morning and this couple has a four month old child(about the same age as Tristen) and he weighs about 18 pounds(about the same as Tristen) and they were saying how they could not get their son health insurance because they insurance company said their baby was to FAT that he was an obese baby, but they said that he was only in the 99th percent tile for his weight(Tristen is in the 95) and they said that now most insurance companies will not insure babies that are in the 95th or above because they are to fat! CRAZY! does that mean that my baby is obese? he is just a healthy boy. I could not believe that cause what are you supposed to do if your baby if a little chubby put him on a diet?!

Tristen and Brooklyn

they are getting so big and they are so cute!

Bath time

Tristen just loves to take his bath every night. he just splashes and plays for like almost an hour.

Tristen playing in bed

We woke up the other day and heard Tristen just singing(well more like squealing) in his crib we went in there and he had pulled his blanket over his face and climbed all the way to the front it was so cute when we took the blanket off he just smiled so big at us.

The Pumpkin Patch

Tristen and I went to the Pumpkin Patch with Denise and two of her girls. we had lots of fun taking pictures and just seeing all the cool things that were there. Tristen and I are still planning on taking Michael there maybe this weekend so we can get pumpkins.

The Race

Well I did a race this weekend it was not really a big one but it sure was hard. It was the race to the top of pilot butte! and man it kicked my butt, but I did not come in last place I was 2nd to last(in my age group cause the send different ages up at different times) it took me about 17 min(I know that sounds kinda bad but it is all up hill on the dirt path for those that have done the butte) and I thought it was really bad when I heard my time but then I heard some other girls and I did not do that bad the girls the placed 2nd and 3rd did it in 11 and 12 min and they ran it I know I just walked it but I am in no shape what soever. but I wanted to see what it was like and I wanted to do it just for fun and I did and I am really proud of myself! Maybe next year I will come in 3rd from last! you never know! and Maybe next year I can get a friend to do it with me!

Tristen playing hard.

He fell asleep the other day in this thing I dont know how I guess he just played so hard but one min he was jumping and I went in the other room and came back and he was face planted and out when I came back it was so funny and cute.

No he is not really driving!

Here he is in his johnny jump up he likes it to but not us much cause it does not have any toys nothing for him to chew on so he tries to chew on the straps.

Tristen just loves this thing he just sits in it and spins and eats all the toys he would stay in it all day and night if I would let him.

Tristens Three month pictures are here now that he is almost four months old but here is a little update.

He can roll over
he eats food (loves carrots)
he drools like lake a day!
he loves to be outside
he loves our morning walks
he wants to crawl and is already pushing himself all over the place.

Tristen Said his first word(well he did not mean too but he did) we were talking and playing a game and I had just made him a bottle and Michael had just gave it to him and he had the hick-ups and Michael said man are you drunk and he said hick-up, hick-up and Michael said man mommy must be mixing a little something in your bottle and he said yeah, hick-up it was so funny.

Just one of the fun things we did when Micheal's cousin came and saw us.

some pictures of the outside.

Here is what is outside looks like well pretty close we have been working on it already. we would like it to be looking good by next summer and get some grass in the back yard we hope by the end of this summer. and we want to get the hot tub cleaned out and working good. we got our work cut out for us. as you can see.
