Alright,I have been remiss in keeping the blog up to date with Tristan's exploits. But thanks to his mommy, we now have a good history of the past year and a half of our time with our wonderful and beautiful son. And I have to add, mommy has been doing a wonderful job. Not only does she organize the house our finances and any paper work, such as that for our new adoiption, but she has the energy, love and understanding to mold Tristan into wonderful child. Connie, I love you and the way you love our son. It makes me so happy just to watch you interact with Tristan and see how much he loves his mommy. I know you say he is a daddy's boy, but I beg to differ.
Tristan turned two, two weeks ago and when looking at the pictures taken at his birthday party, he looks like such a mature little man. You always hear they grow up fast, but it still doesn't prepare you for it. He recieved many nice gifts from grandma, pa pa, pops, Aunt DeDe, Aunt Barbara and Uncle Bobby & Aunt Suzie. Tristan really enjoyed opening all his gifts. We don't know where to put them all. We spent a good part of the day on the deck because it was such a beautiful day. The first time we used it since pa pa painted it. Tristan played with his uncle Bobby in the yard, riding his new bike, which he can't reach the peddles. Or just running thru the neighbor's yards. The food was good to. It was a good day. We also learned that uncle Bobby and aunt Suzie are expecting a baby in December. Wonderful news, but we haven't broken the news about our plans for a second adoption, which should be complete with a little luck and good fortune by the end of the year. The family won't know what to do when we go from one to three children in the family.
We celebrated Easter, first at our house than at grandma's. Mommy made a nice basket of toys and books. No candy yet, we save that for us. Tristan also enjoyed finding the eggs mommy hid around the house and the surprises inside of them. Than onto papa's for more gifts from the family. Really, we don't know where to put all of them. Another beautiful day of playing in the yard with the golf set. We also got a chance to visit with daddy's friends from the neighborhood, Anthony, Joey and Frankie Buonanno. They were all impressed with Tristan, how smart and beautiful he is. Before leaving, we entertanined them by singing or repertoire of songs, Sponge Bob Square Pants, the Theme to Barretta and the Texas theme song. We left when Tristan started getting tired. He fell asleep in the car and woke up when we got home. Mommy gave him a bottle and after finishing it, thought it was time to get up and play again. Like he did for the past two nights. I told mommy to take him upsatirs and before long he was asleep again for the night. It was a long day and he was exhausted. God I love that little man.
