July- off my phone

Family Night at Chick Fil A
Stories with Gammy
And She's off...pushing backwards
1st time sitting in the grocery cart by themselves
knawing on the cup during the Ice Age movie
Sushi with Paw Paw
Her 1st Mum Mum and she LOVES them!
Still loves "shaving" in the tub
They both needed naps...only Brayden fell asleep
Cutie pie!
Walking on Daddy's feet
Olympic Opening Night- holding their marshmallow shooter torch
We love bathtime!
He insisted he didn't need a nap...
Just a little dress up around here...
He went almost all of the way on the rock climbing wall at the children's museum

Trystan- 8 months old



8 Month Stats
Not Known :)
Dear Trystan,
Oh how you have changed our lives for so much good!  Your brother told you the other day "I'm super glad you were born!"  Aren't we all!  You are such an angel and sweetheart.  You are Daddy's cupcake and Brayden will tell anyone this as well. 

- Sleeping: You are still a great sleeper! Thank you!  You are in bed by 7:30/ 8 at the latest and sleep until about 6 when you roll around and want your pacifier.  If I can run upstairs and get it in before you wake up your brother, you both will sleep until 7 a.m.  You love a morning nap exactly 2 hours after you get up.  And need a good 2-3 hour afternoon nap after lunch sometime.

- Eating: We have moved through most fruits and have found you are allergic to peaches.  Everything else you seem to enjoy.  We have started mixed veggies and mixed fruits- and a little meat, that you don't care for AT ALL!

- Clothes and Diapers: Wearing size 9-12 month clothes (and ready for 12 month clothes) and size 4 diapers

- Favorites: You love holding anything and putting it in your mouth. You are a VERY talkative baby and love to talk to yourself or anyone/anything that will listen. You're favorite thing to do is blow bubbles...big, drool filled bubbles! You finally started moving around- you will roll continously and started pushing backwards with your arms to slide. You can get about anywhere you would like, just no forward movement yet.  You are pushing up on all 4's when you are mad or stuck in a corner.
- Firsts:
6/30 Held bottle and fed yourself
7/3 learned to push backwards very effectively
7/4 1st Fourth of July
7/6 Sat up in grocery cart for your 1st time
7/8 first time sitting up in a high chair at a restaurant
7/14 started saying "mama" but not directly at me
7/18 saying "baba"
7/15 first time in a grocery cart with Brayden

Grandparent Camp

Brayden was invited to stay at Nana and grandaddys house earlier this summer. He was also invited to Gran and Paw Paws house for "camp."

He had a great time at both!
Some pictures Gran sent me when he was there...
Paw Paw's tinkertoys
Singing Karaoke at the mexican restaurant
When I went to pick Brayden up- they were both SO excited to be together again!  It was precious!

The Circus...Brayden and Trystan's1st

We decided Brayden was finally old enough to sit through the circus and with a little help from a new toy, a huge snowcone and peanuts he made it :)  Trystan did great!  The whole family got to come with us!









 Kelbie clapped and waved at all of the stars of the show


 I love these content and amazed faces...they LOVED the show!  A bit long, but a few treats here and there sufficed.  Such a great show to take kids to!

Childrens Museum with Kelbie

We took Kelbie and Aunt TT and Nana to the childrens museum and we all had a great time.  The kids really enjoyed all of the different things to do. 



 Our little climber made it more than 3/4 of the way around before dropping off and he was determined to get back on and finish!
