November

November was fun, only one trip up to Salt Lake, and it was over Thanksgiving. Jon got to do his annual Turkey Bowl, No major injuries this year! YAY! Tripp got to play for a few minutes, it was FREEZING, so he didn't stay long, but LOVED it. We got to spend Thanksgiving with both families, lots of food and fun. Jon had a birthday this month, the big 32! Tripp hasn't been doing anything too new or crazy this month, just hanging out, getting REALLY excited for Christmas, he asks everyday how many days are left until Christmas, so that has been fun. Caffrey has been a busy bee, he has started rolling ALL OVER the place, he got 2 teeth and can sit on his own.


Jon's Birthday! 

Grumpy baby fell asleep gripping his toy.... 

Beanie Buds.

Tripp's favorite outfit..... NO OUTFIT..... and that same sign that we have NO idea what it is supposed to be :-) The Santa hat just adds to the already awesome ensemble! 

Caff in his ball pen.

He is such a happy lil guy!


How we get anything done... they entertain each other. 

I was excited to put him in his hospital shirt... not really sure why, but it was exciting! 

Best toy ever... a box.... Tripp MAY have put him there hahaha. 

Seriously this thing is so cool... 

He's such a little snuggler!

Baby Selfie!

Just a little bedhead...... he might be in need of a haircut. 

He said this is his flight suit, just like dads! 

Such a cheeser!!!

Baby play... 

He was SO excited to be at a restaurant, we were at the mall, so it was SEVERAL restaurants.  

Uncle Doug holding Caffrey on Thanksgiving :-)

Our Gibson Family Thanksgiving. We were missing mom and Todd, but we survived :-) We may have been missing a few food items that we forgot.... we did realize that mom does this much better than we do, but we all had an amazing time, and lots of fun laughing and playing games. 

Jd, Jodi and sleeping Caff!

Finally.... a pic with Santa where Tripp is NOT crying!!! He was excited to see Santa this year! He even talked to him, and sat right next to him! It was GREAT.... Caff on the other hand.. maybe in 4 years hahaha. 

Hot tubing in the snow.... 

These two.

Oh Caffrey... 

How to contain mobile babies!!!

They sure do love each other. 

Getting Louie in the Christmas spirit. :-)

Sneaky baby!

Had to get this pic! He has curly hair too!!!!! 

October


Another busy month! We went to Salt Lake twice in October, they ended up being very productive visits! We went up for some Utes Football games that Jon had tickets to, and we also had some allergy visits for Tripp. Tripp successfully passed 2 allergy challenges! We are pretty excited! We have now eliminated soy and peanuts from his "danger list"! So his current list of allergies is dairy, eggs, wheat, coconut, almonds and sesame. Other than that, we just stayed busy, traveling, having fun, and enjoying the last month of "decent" weather!



Last hike of the season... also Caff's FIRST hike ever... 

Roasting Marshmallows!  This was a first for Tripp, he wasn't sure what he thought about the texture  (and the mess) of melted marshmallows hahaha. 

Winterizing.... but first a ride on the 4-wheeler!

Caff... total opposite of Tripp... LOVES to make a mess and have food everywhere!

Also, likes to eat bee antennas... 

Our feet are REALLY interesting too.... not just his, any foot he can find....

Daddy's favorite shirt.

Tripp helping dad do his physical therapy exercises.

Tripp wrote the entire alphabet, unprompted. 

Just relaxin.

Pretty much the weirdest thing ever, was making peanut butter cookies with Tripp! It felt SO weird... and almost wrong! He LOVED them... and he loves peanut butter now. Sometimes he likes JUST peanut butter as a snack.


Buddies!

Mia LOVES Tripp, anytime he sits down (so, not often) she loves to come snuggle up with him. 

Caffrey and his "Ellie"

This was our allergy appointment for one of the challenges!

Tripp was being silly, and Caffrey was entertained by the noise the paper on the table makes.

Caffrey snuggling with Todd.


Their first bath together! It was a success.... no one got hurt or peed on :-)

Cute lil stinker!

It's about 30 degrees and Tripp still insists on playing in the dirt.

Little intense waiting for the Utes game!

TRIPP... to the rescue! He has been really into superheros lately. He LOVES to dress up as superheros and "rescue" things. 

Caffrey was a ninja turtle for Halloween. He did NOT love the dressing up part as much as Tripp did, but we all survived. 

Tripp.... carving pumpkins, he called this pumpkin poop. 

Tripp was Iron Man for Halloween!

Caffrey partied too hard and crashed out at the Halloween Party... 

Dad and Tripp's Pumpkins!  Iron Man and Smiley Face!

Our new lawn mower... :-)
