hes sitting

tristan is officially sitting up as of today. hes been able to sit unassisted for a few seconds for a few weeks now, but something clicked overnight last night, and now hes all of a sudden doing it great. hes still a little wobbly, of course, but my baby is sitting up by himself. i cant believe it. crawling is next, and i really dont think thats to far away. he is so big!

4 month pictures

We got tristans 4 month pictures back today, and they are so cute!! we like the first on the best. the second one turned out a little funny, lol, but we were towards the end of the session by then.... and they tried to prop him up on a half flat football and he kept rolling off. Anyway, im getting pictures together, and im going to mail them out on tuesday. tonight or tomorrow i'll post some more we've taken recently.

4 Months!!

tristan is 4 months old. at his well baby appointment he was 14lbs and 25 inches long. he is learning so much everyday. he rcognizes mama and daddy and just grins and laughs when he sees one of us. he loves to mive his legs, and kicks when he's happy, and kicks when hes mad too. he loves peek-a-boo, and we're starting to sign with him too. he is rolling consistantly both ways now, and has started giving the sweetest slobbery kisses. he can grab things and put them in his mouth all by himself, so we have to be careful about whats within his reach. hes not crawling, but still moving. he rolls and pivots himself to get where he needs to go- usually off of his blanket on the floor,lol. he can sit for a few seconds unassited if we sit him up, and i imagine he'll be doing be himself before too long. no teeth yet, but we can see the front 2 on top moving their way down his gums, and theyre almost there. he chews on anything he can get his hands on, he loves having one of our fingers. we give him a mesh feeder full of ice and he was in heaven.

he's calling for me now, so i'll be back to post some pictures in a little while

new accomplishments

tristan is growing up so fast, and zooming through all his milestones. he rolled from back to tummy last night, hes bringing things to his mouth, he tries to scooch when hes on his tummy, he can sit assisted with no problems, and sometimes unassisted for a second or 2. he was 24" and 13lbs 5oz on january 4. hes such a happy and laid back baby. its so much fun to just watch him figure things out. hes so interested in everything :)

playtime

i can bring things to my mouth!
