3 Weeks


We have made it out on 3 whole walks; feeling like they are pretty big outings at this juncture in our somewhat cabin-fevered state.

It has been cold most days and unseasonably windy for a better part of the last two weeks. The cold & flu season has hit pretty hard so we have made a concerted effort to stay nested at home and keep this little man healthy; though it seems that would only be possible with a first-child. I don't know how one could be so protective once there is more than one kiddo running around. For the time being though, we will enjoy this stage and continue to be over protective parents.

Greg's mom was in town over the weekend and Tristan got the love poured on him. Over the last seven years Rochelle has dedicated her heart to being a Grandma to Jackson & Grace in Tulsa, and she has it down to an art. It was so special to see her with Tristan and he couldn't take his eyes off of her by the time she left today - it brought us all to tears. There is a very special bond between that first and third generation.

So cute to see a picture of the new family...and I was also impressed that you had already made it to the park! :) He is so lucky to have such loving parents.

What joy I am receiving as a parent to see my own daughters and wonderful son in laws enjoy this passage and adventure in their lives. My only sadness is that I am not closer - I will just have to fly over more often.

Tristan is darling and going so much since I saw him last.
