Somebody learned a new trick........





I can't believe how big he's getting! He's still a little wobbly but can still up for himself for a minute or so at a time!
And these two pictures were just so cute, so I had to include them!




Notice the shirt! I must say, he is quite the "stud puffin"!

Thanksgiving

This is a little late, but I thought I would do a quick post about Thanksgiving this year. It was our year to have dinner with my family! It's fun to go to St. George every other year, but I have to admit, it's soo nice to just stay home! Especially with Triptyn this year. The festivities started Wednesday night when my mom and I decorated some super cute turkey cookies!


Thursday morning, Trip and I just hung out around the house while Mike went jeepin with my dad. Dinner was supposed to be at 4 o'clock at my brother's house, but we ended up getting there about 5. :) It was soo yummy and there was TONS of food, I don't even think I got to eat some of everything because there was so much. I was so full -- I didn't even want pie!




Triptyn was so good during dinner and just sat in his bumbo so content and quite. I've actually never seen him like that, and he hasn't been like that since! Maybe it was his thanksgiving gift to me...being able to eat dinner in peace without someone having to hold him!








Black Friday shopping didn't even start until 7:30am for my mom and I. Usually we are up with the other crazies at 4am. But this year I didn't feel like there was anything getting up early for. I think I am done Christmas shopping for Triptyn now, I got him some toys 50% off or more.....I just love good deals!

I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving, I know we did. Now I just need to get out my Christmas decorations and start playing Christmas music!

4 Months

Yesterday was Triptyn's 4 month well check with his pediatrician. He weighs 14 lbs. 8 oz. (50th percentile) and he's 24 7/8 in. long (also 50th percentile). The doc said he is looking great! He's healthy and getting big sooo fast. Too fast if you ask me, not fast enough if you ask his dad. :) He also had to get another set of shots. He did amazing, he only cried for about 10 seconds. Tough like his Daddy! Here's a cute picture of little Trippy with bandaids on both legs! :)


Thought I would include this cute pic, he's always sleeping with one of his hands on his face. This time his finger was actually poking his eye.....doesn't seem very comfortable to me?!


After I ate breakfast on Sunday morning, I came in to the bedroom to this:


Gosh, I love these two boys sooo much!!!

Look.....No Hair!!!




Bath Time


Today was Triptyn's first bath in the BIG bathtub! At first, he wasn't quite sure what to do...he just laid there. But then he realized he could move around and he loved it! Here's a video, it's kind of long, so you don't have to watch the whole thing, but I just loved watching him splash around. tThe video doesn't do it justice because he stopped splashing as much as soon as he saw the camera :(

The Cutest Monkey EVER!!!





We had a great Halloween this year! Triptyn went to visit all the family, so they could see him in his cute monkey costume. He was definetly happy to get out of it though!



I just had to post this picture.....this is the reaction I get when I put Triptyn on his stomach! He does not like it at all!!

Carving Pumpkins and Happy Birthday to Chase!

Carving Pumpkins

.......... Triptyn really likes his fist these days.........


The Pumpkins









Yesterday was Chase's 11th Birthday (gosh, that makes me feel old). Angie took the day off, so I went down on Wednesday night with my parents because Ang has been dying to see Triptyn. It was a quick trip but always worth it! Triptyn didn't want to miss any of the action while we were there, so he didn't sleep very much. He fell alseep long enough for me to eat dinner!


Then it was time for Chase to open his presents.




Triptyn woke up in time for the party






I'm so glad we were able to be there for your birthday Chase!
We love you and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!
