What we've been up to...

We have been riding bikes, with our helmets on of course.  Sometimes we ride  inside the house with our jammies on, and on occasion we actually go outside and ride around the block. Tripp loves to ride, this bike has a removable handle that mom and dad can push and steer, until Tripp can reach the pedals fully and steer himself... preferably not off curbs or into poles.

Sometimes we go out to lunch, Mom was on a Mimi's Cafe kick for quite a while..... thank goodness she is over that one, dad is excited to go back to Cafe Rio. 

After Christmas time we walked around "The District" and got to see the Christmas lights they still had up and go play in all the seasonal Christmas stores! Daddy and Tripp had WAY too much fun that night!

Mom has been trying to pack up old things and organize.... Tripp likes to "help".

Tripp LOVES music, he has his own orange recorder that he loves to play VERY loud.  He also has an entire "bath time  music set" that dad bought him for Christmas, which consists of a xylophone, 3 different sounding flutes and a drum! Bath time is extremely fun, it is so much fun that dad has volunteered for bath duty for the next year! YAY.

We drink a lot of rice milk.... gotta grow up big and healthy.... AND allergy free.
The actual purpose of this picture was to show off ALL his hair, but ended up not getting a very good pic, but man he has awesome CURLY hair!!! 

Tripp likes to rock out with Elmo! Apparently he is not a fan of Elmo's singing though, Tripp ALWAYS steals Elmo's microphone and chucks it.... poor Elmo.

We eat a lot.... and we HAVE to do it ourselves..... we don't need mom's help, no matter what she thinks.

See mom, see how easy that was.....

We like to empty our toy box, so we can get in.... and play... and sometimes lay down.

Daddy did Tripp's hair one day....... YIKES, wild child.

Then we all got sick......Mom started it, and got the flu, then a week later got a nasty cold that won't go away, then Tripp got it, but his got respiratory, so he has been doing breathing treatments with a nebulizer machine, and has had a NASTY cough..... THEN dad got it.... dad of course recovered the fastest, but really enjoyed flying around with the pressure in his head... ugh.

Little sicky.... but momma admittedly enjoyed the cuddles. While Tripp has been sick, we also lost the binki battle... Normally Tripp only has his binki at bed time and nap times, never during the day, but while sick... it is pretty much a lost battle not worth fighting... poor lil man.

Tripp's cute little rhino mask for his breathing treatments.  He actually does pretty good with the treatments, the last couple days he has been a little more difficult, but loves when daddy sings to him, calms him right down... dad has even rapped the ABC's.... Tripp LOVES it.

Even while sick, Tripp makes time to be a little cheeser!!! We just love him!


While sick we slept in the office while mommy worked and listened to lullaby's on pandora... yawn.

Now we are all almost healed and doing much better.... and YES we are still wearing Christmas jammies. :-)
