Play time....

We are working on the OOOOOO! He also was just staring at the dogs and then decided to wave at them!

He has taken a sudden interest in throwing himself on the dog beds and rolling around on them... not sure why?

Pacify - NO MORE!!!

A little update on the man... When we were in Jackson I noticed Tristen had cut another tooth... so we are now at 7. He has a few more bumps so I think more are close behind! The newest excitement is that he no longer takes his pacifier... He was only getting it at naps and nighttime but daycare was not giving it to him lately and he was doing fine so we decided to just take it away on Monday and see how it went.... well it was not a problem at all for him! He didnt cry a bit! We are so lucky to have such a good little boy! His verbal is taking off... He says HI... over and over..... Peese (please)......Oggies (doggies)....... Appy (Aspen)....... Uh Oh...... He can say Mama and Dada but doesnt.

He also had started FLIRTING! Oh my gosh.... he will see girls and smile and then turn away and tuck his chin to the side and get all excited! One of the daycare gals said that they think he is starting to realize how cute he is... we are going to make sure that it doesnt go to his head... ha ha!

ROAD TRIP!!!

Well we took our first FAMILY ROAD TRIP to Jackson Hole, WY. It was quite the trek but the weather was really good both ways and Tristen held up well..... Hayden and I traded off skiing and watching Tristen so we both got to go out and have some fun.....


We are off! We did have to resort to the Baby Einstein DVD's at times b/c he was just ready to get out of that car seat! Nice milk drool bud....

He did really well and even fell asleep eating his snack here....

His new thing, sticking his hand and saying peese?? (please)

Hotel stay went well....

We made it!!!! And I found a remote!

We were all ready to go swimming but then come to find out the pool was not working that day!!!

Meeting up with his first deer face to face....

We went into the village to check out some fun stuff...

He walked all around the condo in and out of every room over and over...

I think we need to look into youth size goggles... he liked them!

Tman decided instead of climbing on top of the table he decided to climb through it!

Double fisting it with Milk and Water

Going sledding in the snow!

Tristen thought it was kind of fun to get buried in the snow

This is a view from the top of the Avalanche that happened while we were there just before the lifts opened. The perspective gets really lost in photos... it was quite big and deep.

The Avalanche that happened in-bounds which ended up killing one of the Jackson Hole Ski Patrol men.... We have skied that run numerous times....

This was a great view skiing down and I was even more excited b/c I was skiing back to the condo to get into the HOT TUB!

Ahhh the beautiful views...

Ok so its out of focus but its the only pic I have of us ADULTS! We went to the Million Dollar Cowboy Bar and did some country dancing!

Time to get all packed up... I tried to tell Tristen that it didnt mean that we had to get in the suitcases as well!

Grandpa Dave.... Tristen got really close with him b/c all Dave did was give him food!!!

Kathryn and Tristen

Saw lots of wildlife, as we headed out of town we saw our Moose!!!! 5 Moose, 3 Bald Eagles, lots of Deer and a couple Coyotes

Using his vocal chords to show us how he can scream at the top of his lungs....just for fun.

After all those hours in the car what does Tristen do... climbs back in!!!
