I think it's one of my favorite paint jobs that we've done. Yes, it's all paint, Chad did an amazing job on the stripes. After ripping all the wall paper out of this house, I don't ever want to put it back in again. Only one room left with wall paper and it's coming out soon!
I've been doing the P90X workouts for the last 2 months and I can definitely see that it's making a difference. Just the fact that I'm okay posting this picture says a lot! :D Here's a picture of the dress too. I actually bought a size smaller than I am right now as motivation to keep up the workouts but I was surprised that it fit so well. Chad loves it and I do too!
Just a quick update on Tristan (mostly so I don't forget these things later on). We had his 6 month check up on Friday and he's weighing in at 19lbs, 5oz and he's 28 inches long. He's basically mastered sitting up (see the pic above) and he smiles at pretty much everyone now. Except for yesterday when a woman in the store turned around and said hello to him and he started hysterically crying! Either it was because he was tired or she was shooting off some seriously bad vibes!His favorite thing to grab and of course put promptly in his mouth is my phone. Normally I don't let him have it but it was such a good incentive to get him to crawl for the camera. :D
I have no more time tonight so I'll have to save my birthday post for tomorrow!
It's 5:00 in the morning. Tristan didn't take a very good nap(s) yesterday so he ended up falling asleep at 8:00pm so now he's awake and wants to play.
He's just so cute! How could I say no to that face?
To which Eddie said, holy cow, he looks just like Chad. Haha one problem: That's me at 6 months! Tristan's definitely a good mix of the two of us! :D Don't you just love the fat rolls on my legs? What do you think? Who does he look more like?
This is one of my new fav's! Such a happy boy! This is really how he usually looks. So here's proof that Tristan really does smile. :D Everyone always tells me how serious he always looks in pictures and it's only because as soon as you pull out the camera he stops smiling! Stinker! Ryan seems to be the only one who can get pictures of him smiling.
Look at that belly!
It was quite a cleanup operation. A simple wipe down with baby wipes would not suffice with this mess so I stuck him in the sink to hose him down. Even with scrubbing his skin had a slight orange hue to it. There were carrots everywhere, all over him (obviously!) covering his tray and high chair and of course on me. Besides the sneeze he also grabbed my arm after having stuck his hand in his mouth.
Just some new pictures of Tristan. Since no one in my family lives here, they don't get to see Tristan very often (if at all) so here's some more pictures for them! He's just about into 9-12 months clothes and gives me a work out just holding him. I can only imagine how it will be when he's one! He still hasn't figured out to go from his belly to his back but he's great at the other way around. He constantly flips himself onto his belly and then gets pissed because he doesn't know how to get back. We'll let him fuss for a few minutes and then flip him back, he then promptly flips himself back to his belly. Darn kid! His newest thing is laying on his back and pushing up with his feet. He scoots across the floor a bit this way and also tries to push himself out of his swing.
I just had to get a picture of this. He so did not want to be in the swing so he pushed and pushed with his feet and shoulders until he ended up like this.
This is about as close as I could get to a pictuere of him smiling. Every time I pull out the camera he stops smiling and just looks at me. He's tricky!
And one of him with his thumb in his mouth. He wasn't actually sleeping, he just kept blinking when the camera flashed. Apparently that problem runs in the family because I blink in pictures all the time and so does my mom!
