We took Tristan to see the Canton fireworks show last night to celebrate his first-ever Fourth of July. While we were waiting for the show to start, he held on to his blankie and loved just watching all the people go by. He climbed all over us so he could see what all he could see. ;0)
When he heard that first boom, he jumped... but then he looked up at the sky and his eyes just lit up. He was so mesmerized by all the bright colors. He really enjoyed them for several minutes, but then the noise started hurting his ears and he wouldn't let us cover them for him. He got a little fussy, but by that time, the wind had shifted and debris was falling right on us, so we all got back in the car. We watched the rest of the show from there and he was craning his neck to see the fireworks through the window. =)

Today was Tristan's four month check-up.
He now weighs 15 pounds, 3 oz. and is 26 inches long. He got 3 shots with 5 vaccines and is *super* cranky, but other than that he is doing okay. His dr gave the go-ahead for him to start baby foods when his cereal isn't filling enough for him, but he could take or leave the cereal right now, so I think it will still be quite a while before he moves on to veggies.

Today, Tristan is four months old.
Yesterday, he watched me operate a toy just once and then he tried to do it himself. Such a fast learner!!

Today, I woke up to a smiling baby and my wonderful husband. The boys gave me really sweet cards plus a lovely black & white diamond bracelet. I love it!!
My mom and godmother gave me some spending money plus a Boyd's Bear baby figurine.
We got dressed and took Tristan and Gunner to the lake for a little family time. It was fun, but hot, and I got sunburned. Brandon & I went grocery shopping for a while, then we took Tristan to see his Gma Gwen for Mother's Day.
**While we were there, Tristan rolled over for the first time!! He went from front to back and couldn't figure it out in the other direction, but still that was quite a milestone!!
Tonight, Brandon and I cooked dinner together and the baby is already fast asleep.
I can't believe that my little one is getting so big so fast... but I'm so proud of him for figuring out how to roll over! :)

Tristan has had quite a week... He has started holding his toys, loving his Exersaucer and laughing SO much more! He's also continuing to eat a little bit of cereal every day, and being such a big boy. Here are some pictures to prove it. :)
