My littlest angel has hit the 6 month mark and here are some stats from the doctor...17lbs 5oz (65%) and 26 1/2" (50ish%). He's growing healthy and strong. We battled a little bronchitis recently but he's ok now. He sleeps SOOO well. He's the angel baby that can be laid down in bed and usually fall asleep himself. He's eating baby food 2 times a day. So far we've tried peas, sweet potatoes and green beans along with rice and oatmeal that are the staples. He LOVES to eat (can you tell). He's still very much a Momma's boy but he's starting to let others in if he's in a good mood, or if they give him food. He's not crawling yet but he's pushing up on his hands and starting to wiggle his bum a little so we'll see. He's still pretty content to just stay where he is and watch everything but he's getting more and more interested in toys that seem to get away so maybe he'll chase one soon. We LOVE his very kissable rosy cheeks. He's such a joy to have in our family! Here are some pics of tiny baby Tristan compared to today...
Dropping off Connor at school today... Me: I love you C: I love you too Me: Love you more C: No, I love you most Me: I love you more than there are stars in the sky. Connor pauses slightly to think of something bigger. C: I love you more than all our blessings.
We must be so blessed. We really, are it's just nice to know he realizes it.
Potty training is fun...
Mom: "Tristan are you sure you don't have to go poopy?"
Tristan : "No, my poop is still playing in my bum."
Connor: "Mom, why do you like Country music?"
Mom: "I like the sound and I like the stories in the songs."
Connor: "Dad, why do you like city music?"
Snickering from Mom and Dad...
Home Teachers were over and about to give a message and I grabbed Haydn to try to get him to hold still. Quietly, I told him to listen about how they call missionaries. His reply was, "WITH THE PHONE!" said with the biggest tone of "duh, I already know this Mom" ever.
Haydn: "Mom, I can't go to sleep, Jedi's don't get tired!" Me: "But they need their rest so they can save everyone." Haydn: "But if I go to sleep my Jedi power will break!"
Haydn: "Mom, do you want a hug?" Me: "Yeah, I love hugs!" Haydn: "Then you have to turn on a show for me and I'll give you a hug. Mom, do you like hugs?" Me: "Yeah, I do like hugs." Haydn: "Then turn on a show."
Connor, reading a pepper container, says, "Spices from the four corners of the earth? Mom the earth isn't square, how can there be four corners?" "Ground black pepper? Is the ground black?"
Connor had hurt Haydn earlier and when Haydn remembered it he said... Haydn very sternly to Connor: "You say sorry again okay!" Connor: "Are you the boss?" Haydn still stern:"No I am not! I'm HAYDN!"
Haydn: "When I grow up I gonna be a baby elephant!"
Connor: quotes about his best friend Holly from school... "Mom, Holly and I love each other." "She's so cute when she smiles." "I wrote Holly three notes and two of them said, 'I love you!'" "I'm gonna marry Holly!" Dad:"Does she know that?" Connor:"Yeah I asked her and she said okay!"
Mom: "Haydn what are you doing?" Haydn: (hushed voice)"I hiding." Mom: "Why?" Haydn: (thinks about it) "I poopy!" Potty Training NOT going so well!
Connor: "Mom, did you know the ice cream in OUR ice cream cones is the best because I taste your love in them!"
Haydn: "Yes SIR!" maybe, "Yes Sure!"
Connor: "It was so sticky...like...as sticky as packing tape!"

Wow! I didn't realize how old he is getting. He's going to be so big by the time I actually meet him...
He is big. Claire was only 15.0 pounds at 6 month. Must be the 3rd child angel syndrome because Claire is the same way. It's nice huh!
