Tristan Got A Makeover At 11 Months

A bittersweet day Why? Because my son got his 1st haircut and he is officially one month away from being a big boy. I guess my husband woke up and was like "Okay today I'm going to cut my son's hair." I cried seeing all his hair on the floor. I was against cutting his hair because it's what I thought made him 'him'. I was wrong, seeing that bright smile and those chubby cheeks changed my mind.

Traveling with a 7-Month-Old: Our Family Vacation and Milestones

Good Day My Beauties!!! I know it's been a while since I have posted but I've been on vacation and trying to settle back into my regular schedule. Tristan Is finally 8 months and it doesn't even seem like it. Time is going by so fast and I wish it would just slow down. We traveled back to the states to visit family. When we left Japan when he was 5 months and he did amazing on the plane ride there.

Tristan’s 5 Month Update

Little Daniel turned 5 months Today. Yay!!! I can sum this month up with one word "Active." He is no longer this calm baby I knew a few weeks ago. He grabs and pulls everything it doesn't matter what it is. We are now at the stage where everything is food lol. No matter what is in his hand, it's a snack for him. He keeps me on my toes I don't think I'm ready for him to crawl.

Happy 3 Months Tristan

Time is flying by and my little one is 3 months. He surprises me every day with something new. Tristan is no longer this little baby who just stares at you lol now he is starting to talk and coo. He enjoys listening to his dad whistle and watching me act crazy. Lately, Snuggling with his blanket seems to be his favorite thing to do. I'm really enjoying being a stay-at-home mom because I get to see how he progresses socially, cognitively, and physically.

Happy One Month

Good Day My Beauties =) I know time is going by so fast... My baby boy is one month today I can't believe it. He has changed so much since September. He no longer looks like me his looks just like his dad. The only thing that comes for me and my side of the family would be his eyes and his lips. My family is known for its big eyes. The last time he got weighed he was at 8lbs and 9oz and 20in long.

Birth Story

September 23, 2013, at 4:29 AM I gave birth to my son Tristan Daniel S. He weighed 7lbs 1oz and 17in long. I went into Labor and Delivery on September 22nd at 3 something that evening. The nurse checked me and my cervix didn't change from the last time. I was very upset being I've been in pre-labor for over 2 weeks and were stuck at 3cm. They gave me the option to go walk for an hour and I did the total opposite. My husband took me to the store to get a subway and cookies lol.

Tiffany Blue Baby Shower

Hello everyone This past Saturday I had my baby shower. It was so nice and blue. If you're not familiar with Tiffany Blue it's a very nice soft blue that everyone is in love with. I'm obsessed with Audrey Hepburn she is famous for Breakfast at Tiffany's. With help from some of the wives here on base, we put together a great shower. My cake was made by Haley J Cake's you can find her on Facebook. She did an amazing job.

31 Weeks

Hello, everyone, It's been a while since you heard from me and I'm sorry. I've been very busy trying to get everything together for our little bundle of joy. My husband and I both agreed on the name Tristan Daniel. The "T" Is something that's traditional in my family and Daniel is my husband's first name. After three months I agreed on the Nautical theme but my husband dislikes the idea of having Yellow in his room. So, after three weeks of picking his brain, I got him to agree on Dr. Seuss.

We're Pregnant

Hello everyone I apologize for everything I'm BACK!!! A few months ago my husband and I discovered we will be adding an adding on to the family. He will arrive on October 7, 2013, unless he is willing to show his face earlier lol. I've been dealing with all-day sickness and having no energy. I feel bad about losing focus on my blog and giving up on my goals. I'm gaining back my energy and the sickness is going away. I hope you missed me because I missed you guys dearly.
