Drumroll please..........

So Tristan is going to have a lil' BROTHER!! YAY!! We are super excited!! And the doctor said "Oh, it's DEFINITELY a boy!!!" And of course Vincent had to say, "Yeah, he gets that from me." Men. Geez..... But we are super excited to add another little boy to the brood because I LOVE boys. I hate to say I show favoritism towards them but I do. Plus, I was an awful little girl growing up so I just know if I had one, she would be just like me. Uggghhhh.




Tristan is walking full time with a fall every now and then. He's saying some words in Spanish (IMAGINE THAT), mostly from a song in Spanish that he knows. That's because I have insisted that every video he watches be in Spanish. He and I have both been learning it together. Which is ironic because Vincent, the Spaniard, knows absolutely no Spanish. I know Spanish from years in school and traveling Spain for a month but if you don't use it, you lose it. I have every desire to have my children speak it though so I'm trying. Hopefully, it sticks.

Summer school is almost over and I get 2 weeks break before fall semester starts. This summer semester was a beating. I abandoned all friends and spent all my time either with Tristan, working or studying. It was 2 classes that I'm not great at so I had to study extra hard. Plus, I'm pregnant and feeling yucky. Exhausted 24 hours 7 days a week. I would not recommend that schedule to anyone.

My brother, Nate, has a baby due in a few weeks and we hope to go visit him but the timing with classes may not work out. We'll see. But I am so excited for them!! YAY!!

My Big Boy

Since Tristan turned 1, I decided to take some pictures to mark the occasion. Vincent has been complaining that I don't use my super nice camera enough so I decided to take some amateur pictures. Please excuse the lack of professionalism but hey, they are pictures of Tristan and that was the goal  :)

We went to this park in Coppell and got some great shots. I even bought him a cake so he could dive into that. Then when we got home, I got an idea of putting him in Vincent's shoes and tie. The kitchen ended up where he was being cooperative about taking pictures.

Anyway, here are the pictures of my little boy, already 1  :(
