CABO CABO!!!

Well we did it, took the lil man down to Cabo! Last time I was there was when I was 6 months pregnant.... he might have gotten his love of water from me floating in the Sea of Cortez! So we headed down this year with my parents, brother and his girlfriend.... of course it didnt start out so smooth, flying standby can keep you on your toes! We made it there after Mommy got to fly in First Class (feeling very guilty) and Daddy was a trooper holding Tristen on his lap! We had a ball and got to swim with the Dolphins, Zip line and endless water time! Tristen was loving every minute he had, Grandpa and Ree-Ree helped out a ton and watched him some some Hayden and I could do some fun stuff together.... Jason and Sonia also helped us out.... its a bit different down there with a little one so we really were thankful to have our family to help out!

Ready to go in Omaha... except our plane left without us on it...
Ok I love this picture, dont know what everyone is laughing at but they are all looking at different things/people!
Jason and Tia Sonia... Tia Sonia about to drench him!
Good Morning!
Early Morning swim, pools to yourself!
Swimming in the Sea of Cortez...
Making a masterpiece...
We were watching for flying fish....
Swimming with Endy our Dolphin!
Loved it!
And Hayden being the only male in the group she liked him a little more, hence the tongue....
These were actually his first steps ever on the beach....


Zip Lining!
Tristen loved jumping into the fountains....
Our mountain.... climbed to the very top.... beautiful views!

Better get this done....

Once I got home from Jersey Kim and the kiddos came up for the annual NE trip... Had a blast.... and it sure was different from last year... last year Tristen wasnt MOBILE!!! So it was great to have Ali and Logan help out some too... I will say Tristen loved his Ali, she was so good with him!


Went to Music and Mozzarella....
Tristen found someone his size and proceeded to take her dancing....
Ali had a blast!

The whole group in the pool! Even the dogs!
Loves the sprinkler and doesnt mind that its freezing cold water!
Pool time, Hayden in background trying to get Logans Transformer... transformed!
Ok I was impressed if you cant tell by my face.... Tristen hung on for a good amount of time....
Tristen was so excited he would just go and sit by Logan ready to play.
Good Morning faces!
Playing in the sand while I played vball.....
Went to the childrens museum
Tristen has a funny excited face??
Showing Grandpa that he too can fly!
Ali, Tristen and Logan
Of course Tristen took charge and was in the drivers seat here....
Ok so this is funny.. sort of. Tristen has entered into a phase of hitting, not much yet, but still.... Well we were skyping with Hayden who is in Switzerland and Tristen hit me with my phone so I set him in a time out right by me.... well Kim thought it was funny and took a picture... his face was stoned the whole time....
Cheese!
We went out to the Cessna Citation for the Special Olympics which was very cool and inspiring, a jet landed every two minutes!

We were standing in the right place at the right time, the torch runners came by and gave Ali a hat and Ali and Tristen pins for their shirts!
Tristen giving Ali some love... awww
Thanks to Hayden taking care of us and making our yummy drinks!

Im getting worse....

Updates are hard to come by... summertime is busy! These are so out of order... but oh well! So I celebrated my Golden Birthday by driving down to Texas and spending the 4th at home! We had a blast but then also got bad news that my Grandpa McGeough had passed away, it was almost surreal that we were in Texas to be in person to get the news. So after driving home I unpacked and packed up to head up to New Jersey for his funeral... which was beautiful in many ways, seeing him and family and being able to share all the memories was wonderful... the trip there and back were also memorable in a horrible way.... flights cancelled, delayed everything you can think of, but somehow I made it there in just enough time and got home after being away from Tristen for the first time by myself! So now its back to work for 2 weeks and then off to Cabo....


On the way home, dinner stop!

Cupcake treats....
Very serious Captain!
Wasnt digging the life jacket at first... he just froze... but once he got in the lake he was loving it!
Hayden doing flips off the dock.... his back didnt appreciate that the next morning....
Sunscreen time!
Two handsome guys...
Hayden and I got to wake board and tube with Marci, Kim and Mark while the Grandparents watched the little ones.... that was awesome!

Arabella and Tristen had such a good time playing, they had tea parties galore!
We also went to a former player of Haydens wedding which was a great time!
Tristen went around picking off all my Dads blackberries and eating them.... he liked them... a lot!
Got a little girl time with my besties!

Summer Summer SUMMERTIME!!!!

Grabbing a snack after playing in the sprinkler and pool....

Ok so this is funny.... Tristen had a huge breakfast.... we were doing stuff around the house and I was back in his room and Hayden had walked back into the kitchen and Tristen had pulled the chair out, climbed up, pulled both the bowl of grapes and coffee from the middle of the table over and was eating the grapes... good thing he didnt get the coffee.....he thought nothing of it when we walked in and were like... HUH?
My great pal Renee and I are share the love of volleyball... we participated in the Cornhusker State Games again this year in Womens Grass 2's... well we brought home the GOLD! We had a blast.... it got quite hot outside and pretty much were gased out at the end.... but in order to keep going the rest of the day we had to go and get pedicures... it was only right... we play barefoot and they were a mess after 6 hrs!!!

Music and Mozzarella.... Tristen with Izzie holding hands.... She even tried to KISS HIM!!!
We have had some major storms and rain.... we also had some HAIL!
Happy Fathers Day! Matching shirts that Daddy bought while out in CALI
This is what I call his "stinker face" He thought it was great to go and get everything out of the dresser!
Was seriously trying to close himself into the fridge... even said BYE to me!
