Spring do!

Tristens hair grows fast! I took him in and decided to just chop it off for spring and summer..... he did so good, sat there the whole time even with the clippers going!

Before

Very focused on watching what she was doing in the mirror....

Not the best after picture... but it does look cute and clean cut!

Welcome Home.... I guess....

Well Daddy came home after being gone for a week and this is how Tristen greeted him.....

Tristen came out into the kitchen like this..... no lie...

Annual Spring Break Trip

Hayden always heads out to CA for spring break and I really should go as well but for some reason I stay here with cold winter weather and snow! My parents came up again for the week and my Dad put in new counter tops, sink, faucet, over the range microwave and under cabinet lighting!!! Its so nice! So with both my parents working around the projects they also got their Tristen fix... he is really becoming more and more independent and because of that he has started throwing some fits.... yippee!

2nd Annual St Pattys Day celebration... go to Yia Yias for pizza and beer!!!

Tristen giving Grandpa some lap time before they had to get back on the road!

Come back soon!!!

Tristen fell in love with my moms alarm clock... she actually needed a new one so she was nice enough to leave it here for him to open and close.... push the buttons and do that all over and over and over again! :)

The kitchen!!! Looks so much better!

Randoms....

Springtime is coming!!! My tulips are popping up! Tristen has 10 teeth now and has some more coming, he has been healthy and we hope to get through this last month or two of cold weather without any colds! He loves going to daycare and he started saying his teachers name a few weeks ago and when Hayden gets him ready in the morning he says ASH-EEH..... He is getting closer to having to move to the toddler room... I dont know who its going to be harder on, ME or Tristen!!!

Posing!

Some serious shopping to do... excuse me Mom....

Tristen went into the drawer where his boots are...brings them to me and sits down and wants me to put them on for him so he can get serious about his playing!

This is the best... The dogs are incredible with Tristen... Tristen and Aspen have a closer relationship, he thinks its so funny to go and lift up her lips to show her teeth.... he giggles and then Aspen just sits there, such a good girl..... we always make sure we are around and supervise but these dogs have proven to be great with kids and babes!

Is it Spring yet!?

We are so ready for Spring and some warm weather.... at least to get rid of this snow! Tristen is growing and doing something new and fun daily... He is a spitball, hyper and goofy! He now has eight teeth with a few more poking through soon. He is talking a lot, granted most of it is "his language" but its still fun to have conversations!

There are a lot of times Tristen will go into his room and its all quiet and he is just in there reading and looking at his books all alone... its so cool!

Well Tristen and I went to tennis practice the other day, I have to tell you about this first picture. This is Hayden's boss Scott, this is the only man and or person that Tristen has ever shown stranger anxiety or being afraid of.... Tristen would literally start crying right when he would walk into a room with the exception of Halloween and that was because Scott was a clown and he had no clue... actually Tristen was quite intrigued by him. So long story short Tristen finally came around and each time its so funny to see him interact with Scott, so last week when we were at practice Tristen actually lunged to him and wanted Scott to hold him... so now they are best buds....

Now this is the Cadillac of strollers.... you just have to ride on a ball cart!

The other night Tristen fell asleep with his hand holding onto Obie his elephant.... he stayed like that for over an hour and then all of a sudden I heard Obie go off when he let go.....

Popsicles make my gums feel better... this was his first one and boy did he down it!
