First Day Back

We took Tristan out onto a frozen lake and played around on the ice. Jason wrote a little message.

Bright-eyed.

Our little family.

DeAnne hosted a shower for me here in Chelan on Friday. It was a lot of fun! Thanks to everyone who came! :)

More of those cute fish lips.

Today was my first day back at work. It went better than I expected it would. Tristan did fine, it was just me who was sad! :) Jason did a great job of making sure that Tristan was taken care of. They enjoyed some quality father-son bonding time.

10 Tiny Toes

3 Weeks Old!

I got a Boppy from Aunt Joyce! It is great! Tristan is also showing off his swaddling blanket. He still really likes to be all wrapped up like a burrito.

Wow! Check out these Air Jordan's!! They even fit him! :)

Videos of Tristan

Click here and here to view a couple of videos of Tristan. They are not very exciting, just him looking around and making fish lips. :)

Getting Bigger

Soon he'll be throwing that football. He takes a pacifier every once in awhile. I know that experts say that it is too early for it, but he doesn't see to have any confusion. He loves to suck, and it gives me a break when he can suck on his pacifier!

I took this picture just a minute ago as I was creating this post. He just looks so sweet lying here!

We were visiting Jason's family and Teana wanted to dress as my twin on Sunday. Here we are!

Grandpa Sanderson is helping Tristan read the sports page. Too bad it's all about the Seahawks loss on Sunday.

Tristan seemed to like the music that was playing as he looked at the animals hanging above his head. When he is awake he seems very alert. He is always looking all around and taking everything in.

Finally, new pictures!

Tristan is getting bigger. He is still sooo cute. I can't imagine having to leave him next Monday when I start back at work. It brings tears to my eyes everytime I think about it!

We went to Sequim this weekend and stopped by lots of the relatives on the way to show Tristan off. They had lots of snow the whole way. On Saturday we went up to Hurricane Ridge and played in the snow. This is my handsome husband! :)

More cute Tristan pictures. I have a really cute video of him just looking around and making cute facial expressions. If I can figure out how to put it on this blog, I will.

Most of his facial features are like Jason, but his facial expressions are definitely like mine!

We took Tristan sledding down one little hill. It was pretty cold, but we just had to get a picture of his first time sledding. :)

New Outfits

Tristan got some great new outfits that he is going to show off for you. Neale, Cammy, and Garrett found this Favre onesie. It's a little big now, but it will fit perfectly next season when Brett Favre wins his 4th MVP.

My cute Deputy Sheriff outfit from Connie!

Lots of Sheriffs are too big for their britches...well, my britches are a little too big for me! Check out the cool boots, though!

Uncle Garrett found this warm outfit. Now I wear it everytime I go outside!

Go, Pack, Go!

A Surprise Ending

Ok, I couldn't get this picture to be posted at the end, so my surprise ending will be my surprise beginning. Tristan takes full advantage of his diaperlessness. Something about that cool air just makes him let go!

We started by taking a few pictures of my little snuggle bunny.

Then, we decided to get creative and take a few with Tristan naked.

What a cutie!!
Tristan likes to gnaw on his hand.

The shirt says it all!

My first shower! I actually liked it and didn't cry at all! Mommy was surprised, because everytime she would bathe me I would scream.

6 Days Old

All decked out in South Carolina gear from Auntie Cammy. The Gamecocks must be losing!

Going on a walk all bundled up.

At my appointment yesterday I weighed in at a whopping 5 lbs 7 oz. The Doc says I should gain that weight back by next week.

Showing off my cute outfit!

Even the smallest infant booties are twice my size and make me look like Bigfoot.

More pictures

In the hands of his proud daddy.

Garrett, Cammy, Tristan, and I

A little bundle of love

How could we resist?

I'm not sure why everyone is looking at me!

Our Precious Little Boy!

Heading into the Lake Chelan Community Hospital for our first induction trial on Tuesday....After 13 hours of contractions, they decided it wasn't working and sent me home. They told me to come back on Thursday and they would try again.

Guess which one of these pictures came first!! :)










Mom and her first grandchild!













Lots of family members here to welcome Tristan into the world!
