Well it has been a busy couple of months! Having 2 of these things is a little more work (just a little) :-) We love them! We have lots of fun, we stay really busy, sometimes slightly frustrated, and sometimes crazy! Tripp is an AMAZING big brother! He loves to talk to Caffrey and try to make him smile, he tells Caff all these things they are going to do together when Caff is big like him. They are going to play basketball, and football, and baseball (the list goes on and on and on, I'll spare you). Caffrey went through a rough patch of some CRAZY colic issues! I cannot believe how hard that was! I am very thankful we are through that now! I took him to the Dr one day because he just wouldn't stop crying for days! The Dr suggested we try gas drops, said it may or may not help, but it won't hurt him! Well coincidence or not... it helped and life got more amazing for little man (and us). He is SO much happier and content! Caff loves to hang out with us, be held, see everything, be a part of everything and watch his big brother play!
There are lots of pictures of both of them, Caff doesn't do much other than make faces, and I will update Tripp as we go through the pics .

| Our friend Jon came to visit! Tripp wore him out! Tripp loved every minute of it, and had a great time! We think Jon did too, but maybe a little tired :-) |
 |
| Tripp was "helping" Jon do his stretches... |
 |
| Tripp was watching the storm and counting between the thunder and the lightning. |
 |
| Griffin being part of the crowd. |
 |
| Tripp was working on how to do buttons so that he wouldn't freak out when he can't get them by himself. |
 |
| Gayle and Pat came to visit and met the baby! It was a short visit, but we enjoyed every minute of it! |
 |
| No pictures please. |
 |
| We went to an art festival out here....Tripp was more amused with the rocks..... and kids playing on the rocks... didn't care so much about the art. |
 |
| Caff didn't really care about anything..... |
 |
| Tripp has some style! Lately he has been tucking his shirt into his shorts... we aren't really sure why, but it's adorable... :-) |
 |
| The bike park, still his favorite place! We now just have to go early mornings before it gets to hot! Thanks to Caffrey, we are all usually up by 7 anyway. |
 |
| Then we wash our bikes... because dad is. |
 |
| Caffrey enjoys being outside! If he is ever fussing, this is the best solution! LOVES it! |
 |
| He got tired just watching dad and Tripp wash their bikes. |
 |
| Someone decided after screaming in the car for the entire ride to the vet, it was time to relax and take a nap! |
 |
| Tripp wanted to wear my sweater and take a picture with me... then while I went to take a second one (to attempt getting a smile) he turned around and gave me the biggest hug on camera! Sweet lil man! |
 |
| The cat claimed the baby as her own.... |
 |
| The boys.... |
 |
| Grandma Connie came for a visit, we went on a hike up Millcreek. It was fun, Tripp did MOST of it by himself, there was lots of water to walk through and play in. |
 |
| Grandma fell... and got an owee. |
 |
| Water, rocks and mud.... awesome. |
 |
| Caffrey was calm, content and tired after our long hike. |
 |
| Cooling off on the couch. |
 |

 |
| We went to the Rodeo... Tripp WAS having fun until he got something in his eye...but the picture was priceless. |
 |
| Then it was dancing time... all was right in the world again! |
 |
| Cute... even at 4 in the morning. |
 |
| Tripp started T-Ball this month! He LOVES it! It is on Tuesdays and Thursdays and has about 30 kids. They break off in to teams, Tripp's team is the "Braves" and they have 5 stations they go to for about 5 minutes each, all but one station is related to baseball, the other one is an obstacle course. It is awesome, it keeps all of them going non stop and very busy! Tripp usually sleeps very well on those nights! |
 |
| Tripp and Caffreys Newborn Pics.... to compare. Tripp is on top. |
