May-ee's Birthday Party
So we wanted to share some of our pictures from Mary's birthday party... I absolutely love how close these kiddos are; they have such a great time together, are so loving with each other, AND they understand what each other is saying! Watching conversations between them is a hoot!
And sometimes, I wonder if they're like this...
And sometimes, I wonder if they're like this...
T: "So... nice party you're having"
M: "Yeah, my parents are pretty cool. They got me balloons and everything"
T: "I love the balloons... they're round, but not..."
M: "I love their tiny handles... they're funny..."
Aunt Tricia was awesome and thought of getting T a little present so he'd be entertained with something special while Mary opened her presents... and what a winner of a gift - a big Lightning McQueen! Thanks Tia Tricia! Taking a breather on Mary's new couch... that boy has definitely been spending too much time his Abuo (or Poppa to Mary)... where else would he learn to crash on the couch like that? :-)
"Mama! Look at my face when I try to squeeze it thorugh the mesh!!!"
Peek-a-boo!G'night!
Love,
Marcy, Will & Tristan :)

Our little fish
I've been meaning to put this post up for a while... and of course, now I've got more pictures (I'll post later!) Tristan has continued with his swimming lessons, although now Dadda has been taking him so they've been enjoying some great time in the water, with Tristan becoming more fish-like every day!
So a few pictures...
Tristan and Dadda entering the pool (it's quite chilly!)
Cold! So cold!

Using the flutter-board for swimming... Climbing out of the pool to practice his jumps (no worries Abba, he just jumps from the side, holding on to Dadda's hands the whole time!)
Kicking... kicking... is that Mama with a camera???Cheese! What a cutie of a smile!
We're a bit behind on pics, so we'll try to update with some later this week! Enjoy!

New family update...
Hi everyone,
I thought I should update everyone on our new family status, since I had made note of it earlier... a couple of weeks ago we made the heartbreaking decision to find Bull a new home... a lot of factors came into play, but at the end, it was a very hard decision and we're all quite sad about it.
He was (and still is, according to his new family) a great companion. He was loving, cuddly (sometimes he forgot his size he was so cuddly!) and he adored Tristan, which was the most important thing to us.
We wanted to take this moment to say thank you Bull, for being such an awesome friend. We love you and miss you very much, and are so happy you are having such a great time with your new family, puppy and kitty friends!

Gymnastics class!
Tristan started gymnastics this fall... and we've learned that no matter how nice a camera you have, photographing a munchkin who's running and swinging and bouncing around makes for a lot of blurs! And I've learnd you should never photograph Mama on a trampoline... that type of photography should be aimed at professionals only!
Anywhoo, here we are stretching as a warm up... I don't wanna shake my milkshake cup!(see munchkin behind us)... Who's that Mama? Is Dadda taking pictures?!?
Forget this warm up thing... I'm gonna go see Dadda! See ya!

On the bars... wee!
I didn't realize until this picture, that I was holding T up by only his feet...
Trampolining... at least my hair looks bouncy and pretty!

Crawling around on the mats... phew, Mama was not too big for it!
Mentally preparing for his next moves...
hum hum, just strolling along...

Mama was NOT tickling the belly! (ok.. maybe a little)

Dadda clowning around... wee!
Break time!

Finally: Birthday pictures!
We had 3 small celebrations for Tristan's birthday this year (3 parties is becoming a bit of a thing with this boy!)
Tia Fanny and Tio Ivan came to visit us in Ktown and we had some yummy, yummy dinner and carob cupcakes on his actual birthday....
The birthday boy trying on his Dadda's sandals (upgrading from mine) while holding onto birthday loot:
The birthday cupcake... "Mamma? Should I blow the candle?"
And the day after (once I fixed the cream cheese icing so I could frost his carrot cake) he got the full cake and candles. He's getting really good at blowing them out (and he loved trying so much, we had to relight them twice!)
On this bday party, he got to open his presents from Mamma and Dadda... oooh, train card!
His myriad of books....

Splish splash they were taking a bath.... (they really were! The water was warm, the opportunity knocked... why not???)
Lather, rinse, repeat!
Tio Ryan needed a bath too... so nice of May-ee to volunteer to bathe him!
