Spoiled Rotten

This last Saturday we had dinner over at my parent's house and once again, Tristan was the center of attention :) My brother, Galen, is at home for 2 weeks waiting to start his internship at NASA. So it was my sister, Naomi, Galen, my brother David and his wife, Becky plus my parents just loving on Tristan. He has started making noise when he laughs and it's just the best. It really does make you want to sit there for hours trying to get him to do it. And we literally did. He also has extremely strong leg muscles and loves when you stand him up. Well then my parents remembered the famous swing of me and my siblings' generation- Johnny Jump Up. This is the swing that hangs in the doorway and gives the child hours of entertainment because they love bouncing themselves. Well my parents insisted that he would love it since he loves using his leg muscles so much, so they went right then and got it from Target. He is a tad too small for it but we put a thick blanket around him in the swing to fill the space and- voila! perfect fit! He LOVED it! He was using the bar around the swing to suck/teethe on and at the same time pushing himself on the floor. We have used it several times since then and he loves it every time.

He also spent the night before at Aunt Becky's and Uncle David's house and slept 9 hours!! We were up to 8 but since Friday night, he's slept 9 hours! Whatever you did, Becky and David, thanks!! :)

We have a busy weekend coming up and Tristan will probably have to have a sleepover somewhere..... until then I will try to get a video of Tristan in the Johnny Jump Up making his laughing noises- it's awesome!!

Also, if you can't tell, these are my parent's pictures. I didn't bring my camera. So there are an unusual amount of pictures of my parents :)
