Slackin'

Well we have been slackin...wait a minute. No we havent; we just dont have vey much free time anymore!! We were able to take a nice trip out to "not so sunny" socal. the primary reason was to see jan's side of the family. They were able to schedule for our little one to be dunked in the holy water and once that news hit the presses, family and friends came out of the woodwork...it was a great trip. Jan and I were also able to meet up with some old college friends Erasmo and Jeff as well as some old Amgen buds Roger, Jake and Jenny with their little boy Giles Jack. It was nice to hang out over some pies and beer. our little guy did a great job on the plane and only had a minor issue on the descent back into denver. otherwise i dont think anyone knew we had an infant with us, although i think all the extra luggage was a clue.

Tristan is growing bigger and rounder and plumper! he's got to be a tad over 20lbs...some year olds havent even hit the big 2-0. his cute arms looks like marshmallows stacked one on top of each other. he has big broad shoulders. built like a mini rugby player! Sitting up like a big boy now. No rolling, crawling or anything like that quite yet. his favorite activity is his jolly jumper. its like bungee jumping for infants....boing, boing, boing. 20 minutes of watching him jump like he is in Riverdance or something. its hilarious to watch.

Pop Smith taught him a new trick, or maybe Tristan taught it to Pop...its in the video, sans Pop. when he is excited he will do this for minutes at a time...arms out like he's throttling a mini invisible YZ250. so cute.
