Walking.... sort of...

So about a month ago Tristen took his first 5 steps at Daycare and then did take a couple here and there at home the next few days and then after that weekend he decided to take a break and has had no desire to let us help him or anything. He had still been cruising along the walls and tables but anytime we tried to walk with him he would just buckle his knees and collapse... So today after a 3 hr nap (unheard of) he took like 8 or 9 steps.... maybe he is back!!??


PLEASE PARDON MY LANGUAGE!!!! It was a really long day and I really didn't expect that at the end of the day... but it sure did make for a great ending!

This was the other day, I was letting Tristen play around in the cabinets that are not forbidden, Hayden and I were getting ready to go to the football game and I was popping my head in and out of the kitchen and I thought it got a bit quiet!!!

Wedding Fun.....

These are so in the wrong order and I dont have many of Tristen yet b/c I barely had time with him with all the appts and things to get done I stayed quite busy, so once I get some I will post updates of him!

In backwards order: My girls and I!

Me and my Kimmie

Linz and I just about ready for her to go down the aisle

Brooke, Jennifer and Martita

Bachelorette night.. too much fun.

I had to make Linz a shirt to wear out and get noticed!

All the girls ready to hit the town!

This was funny, we were at the rehearsal and I happened to look over and all of the neatly aligned chairs were no longer in order, lil man was enjoying rearranging them... kept him happy.. all that matters!

Alright so it was weeks ago now but just after Tristen's birthday party we went to New Jersey for my cousin Laurens wedding, it was beautiful and a nice visit to all my family I dont get to see often....it was nice to visit but I dont ever want to live there... its crazy!!!

Well we made it one year!! After some planning and my generous client Rich to offer to host Lil Mans party we had a wonderful time with some family, great friends and some of my clients. Photos courtesy of John McGeough!

Here is the birthday boy ready to get going!
Presents were fun, maybe more for me.... He didnt really have much interest in tearing open the wrapping, So I did it!

The gang!

Adult cake was YUMMY!

Tristens cake....

He started off a little gentle trying to figure out what it was...

Then once he realized it tasted divine... he was down with it!!!

Serious taking care of business

Needed some water to dilute some of that sugar!

A good posed family picture is hard to come by!

Tristen thanking Rich for having us all over....

The three boys....

Party is over and the jammies are on, but the sugar is still working....

Pumpkin Patch

Before the big birthday party and our trip to New Jersey I took Tristen down to the Roca Pumpkin Patch, Grandpa Marty, Grandpa Jack and Gran-mama all came too! He was our little lion cub!

This one cracks me up...

He loves his puppy dogs!
