Trip is 6 months old!






Trip is officially 6 months old today. Time flies! I can't believe our little boy is growing up so fast. It makes me a little sad :( Trip is such a joy and definitely the brightest part of our day. He has been eating baby food for a few weeks now and loves all fruits (even prunes) ! The vegetables are a different story...he will eat sweet potatoes (like mama) and some squash, but anything else he pretends to "fake" gag on it. It is such a crack up. He has one little, sharp tooth on bottom with another coming in beside it. He has only bit me once while nursing and it HURT!! I am hoping that it was a one time thing. Trip was baptized at the end of July and didn't cry until it was picture time at the end. He is a screamer! His new thing is screaming, whether he is happy or sad, screaming. Kels and I just laugh, which makes him scream more. Trip is very tickleish too! Pretty much everywhere and just giggles when you tickle him. He still very much enjoys all types of water. He has taken a real interest in Canusa too. He follows her with his eyes all around the room. She will come up and lick him everywhere and he tries to grab her. I told Kels once Trip is snacking on everything and leaving bits everywhere, Canusa is going to be his shadow!! We went to visit our friends, the Currie's, in Texas last week and had a blast. I will post some of those pictures this week. Avery, Brent, Brynn (2 yrs.) and Camdyn (3 mos.) are all doing great. It is hard having them so far away. Come to think of it most of our good friends live far away:( Trip is a joy and I love being a mom. He is my little best friend. I couldn't ask for anything more. By the way, Kels was Club Champion at Flint Golf Club this year (78-78-75). I told him if he kept it up maybe he should get his pro card, qualify for some tournaments, place in the money making spots, and retire. If only life were that easy...We hope to see everyone sometime soon!!!
