MILK MONSTER

I do not see Tripp coming off the bottle any time soon. He loves his bottle and will crawl around the den/kitchen looking for it. He says ba ba. Anyway, he still takes 4 to 5 bottles a day. I know I know I need to ween him off but this child eats like a maniac. He is eating off the table and has been for a while and eats until pretty much I stop feeding him then whines for a ba ba. Did I mention these bottles are 8 to 10 oz. each. Yes that is 40 to 50 oz. per day of WHOLE milk. He has gotten better with a sippy cup. He usually just grabbed the handle and banged it around but just this week he took on the concept and is doing pretty good. We also taught him how to drink out of a straw and he loves it. When it gets to his mouth, he acts surprised. Our little milk monster, we will still be giving him bottles at 2.

Tupelo High School Homecoming Parade

On the way to the parade!!
Tripp and I met Den Den and Con Con at the Homecoming Parade downtown. We were running a little late and BARELY made it. I figured out the shortest way from our house to Fairpark and went the opposite way. Anyway, we both enjoyed watching the parade especially the band then walked to Fairpark to watch the peprally.

Today was one of those days

where I wanted to just play in my food and not really eat it then get sleepy and rub it all over my face!

I want something face!

When Tripp wants a bottle. Wants to be held. Wants anything, he makes this face. I just love it. He closes his little eyes, scrunches up his nose and mouth.

Playing Outside

Inspecting the grass.

Tripp enjoying playing outside with the neighbors, Mrs. Connie and Katie Rieves and Molly Flynn.

Enjoying a nice swing on the back deck.

10 MONTHS

Tripp is very curious; hard to keep up with.

likes to put everything in his mouth

his new thing is biting. Mrs. Pam says he does NOT do it at her house but he sure thinks he can bite his Mama, Dada and Pepsey. (Pepsey does not like it and growls)

His favorite toys are the bath animals, especially the green turtle and blue octopus. He also loves these balls that have different textures

He is eating off the table- he has had chicken, mash potatoes, sweet potatoes, pancakes, biscuits, bananas, green beans, cheerios, and spaghetti. He likes it all.

He is walking around the coffee table and couch- holding on.

He can stand on his own but only for a few seconds

He doesn't really like bath time anymore- He doesn't cry he just tries his best to get out.

Still sleeping great 7:30 ish to 6:15 ish. Hallelujah

He is babbling more than ever these days

still likes Peek-a-boo and/or pee-pie

enjoys music

laughs when we sing the ABC's

waves and claps

giggles at the smallest things

loves Mrs. Pam

truly SMILES constantly

gives the BEST sugar

likes to ride on your shoulders and be held upside down

New Word: Mama

Thursday September 2, 2010 Tripp said the most important-in my opinion-word he will ever learn. This word said in a sweet innocent way will no doubt get him tons of kisses, lots of lovin and probably get him out of a lot of trouble. I have been waiting for this word 10 LONG MONTHS. Plain as day he said it twice that morning as Dennis and I were playing with him, "ma ma." He said it again that evening when I picked him up.

I WANT TO GO OUTSIDE!
