16 months

My little boy is 16 months...2 months shy of a year and a half...wow has it flown by. He is 31 lbs and is 38 inches tall...yes, he grew AGAIN!~ He is so amazing to us. Learning new things every minute. I love his personality and how amazingly sensitive he is. He is such a big boy. He reminds me of my childhood dog Max. Max was a HUGE Great Dane that thought he was a lap dog, now, I am not saying my son is like a dog...merely that he doesn't know his own size. Tristan will bowl over other children his age, completely unintentional and with a look of, "wow, what just happened?" on his face. We read this book to him and Trinity called Leo the Late Bloomer...that is my Tristan. He is in no hurry to get anywhere, taking his time and enjoying this ride we call life.

He is walking full time now, like an old drunken man, weebling and wobbling all over the place, occasionally he will run into something and decide it is easier and safer to walk, but mostly walking. He loves to scale furniture. He is getting really good at it. I took the stool out of Trinity's bathroom since he was using it to try and get in the sink, so, he takes the basket containing the tub toys, dumps it out, flips it over and pushes it to the sink as his make shift stool...smarty pants. He says "Joo joo" for juice (or any drink for that matter), Mama like crazy, and Deh Deh for Dada. He was saying Neenee for Trinity, but has since stopped...we are thinking it will come back later. He does say his name, when you say "Where's Tristan" he says with excitement "DIDAN!" it is so freaking cute.

He is still nursing strong, I think we will have another late weaner like Trinity. He has decided that he likes nursing to sleep now, so, if we are not in the car, that is how he does it. I don't mind at all...gives us a chance to really reconnect at night. Trinity has been sneeking back into our room to sleep too...so, the both of them end up all intertwined with one another...a cute thing to see for sure. Which leads me to our next news. We just bought Tristan a new bedroom set. Since, he NEVER sleeps in his crib, we sold his baby furniture and opted for big boy stuff. It is beautiful. Navy Blue cottage style, Bunk Bed and dresser. We picked the Twin over Full with a trundle, so, if sister wants to sleep in there with him she can. She loves being with him. They have thier moments like any siblings do, but she cares so much about him as he does her. I will post pictures of the room when it is all set up!

The poor guy has been working on getting his eye teeth,,,,SUCKS. He is a mess. I hope that they push through soon, for everyones sake LOL. Otherwise, what a fun, happy, messy, and cute baby to be around.
