Well it has already been a month since we have been blessed with our new little guy and I am just now getting around to doing an update. As for Tristan, he is doing really well and seems to have grown a ton this last month. At his 1mo doc appointment he weighed 11 lb 2 oz and was 22 in. long. He isn’t sleeping as well as I would like him to at night. As a matter of fact he is horrible. I wish I could report that he was an angle but, he is my little devil when it comes to letting me get sleep. Kadance is doing really well he is getting quite fond of Tristan. As long as he doesn’t get in the way of Kadance getting what he wants. Kadance tries to be a good big brother by trying to pick up Tristan and bring him to me every time he cries. A couple of times I have been in a different room and Kadance has brought him to me. It scared me to death and I have tried to tell Kadance that he shouldn’t pick him up. By the forth time this happened, I came to the conclusion that if I can’t see Tristan then I have to make sure Kadance is with me. So yes that means I can’t even go to the little girls room alone. Tristan gets the pleasure of going with me. Besides that Kadance is doing really well. Sometimes he talks with Tristan, counts to him and I have even seen him share his monkey with him. I am quit proud of Kadance because I know that it can’t be easy for him. William is wishing that he had a little more attention, I think? He has seemed to become a little more of a hand full and seems to be more emotional. He doesn’t seem to pay lots of extra attention to Tristan but, dose interact with him some. I think that things will get better once Tristan doesn’t require so much of my time. He does help me if I ask him to do thing like giving Tristan his binkey, getting his blanket, and even throwing away diapers. He is excited about going to school and getting to ride the bus. He will have the same teacher as last year and will be starting Sept 3rd. Cameron is a big help. He seems to do really well with everything. I think he is most excited about Tristan. He pays Tristan more attention then any one else. I think that he is building a bond with Tristan. Like William and Kadance have seemed to with each other. Cameron really likes to lie on the floor playing with Tristan or even just playing by himself next to Tristan. He is also excited to be going to school and will be in the same class as William. They asked us if we wanted to separate them but, we think that it would be better next year or even to wait until they are in 1st grade. Michael has started his new job and seems to be very busy. He leaves between 6 and 7 in the morning and doesn’t get home until between 6 and 7:30 at night. He is a Platoon Commander (Leads and supervises just over 40 Marines), Company Maintenance (responsible for the up keep of 46 Assault Amphibious Vehicles), Ordnance (in charge of 1385 weapons and optics) and Safety Officer. So maybe he is busy. As for all of us we haven’t gone and done much this last month. Our only Family adventure has been going to the beach and checking out the Sand Jam they had going on. There were 5 live bands and it was an all day concert. We only went for a short time but it was fun. Kadance loved the band and was rocking out to the music. Cameron and William couldn’t care less they just wanted to go back and play in the water. Tristan just slept in his little baby back pack the whole time. Over all I think that it was fun for all and was worth the effort.
