Birthdays..Meddlers & Ponies!

Lots of stuffs .. At least  every couple days it accumulates to a lot ..
Friday was my dear brown friends Birthday!! 
Happy Birthday Mrs. Shani Zerby!! I miss you a ton! Since I'm talking birthday's I would like to mention my other September baby's Mr.Zerby, Miss Christina and
 Miss Lauren Banks!!!


I love you all and hope, as with every year all your dreams come true!!
 Miss Quackalacapan (Christina) came by with her madre.. It was a short and sweet visit but quite enlightening.. Maria (The mom) has quit her job and is looking to relocate to Puerto Vallarta or
 somewhere exotic to work.. She is in her mid-60's and I think it is awesome she is still chasing dreams.... You GO Girl!!
(Johnny's mom- Christina's mom and my mom)
 Whatelse, The John left with Christina to start a new chapter of his life ..
 I wish him the best, I mean I always do, cause whale through it all the IS my best friend.. We may not know each other the way we used to but it doesn't mean I care any less.. In fact you cant help but care more with every year.(Its been 11 years!).I just wish with all my heart he find the end of 
this rainbow hes been chasing.. 
Find love.. and Peace of mind.. Cause seriously it seems this life really is about finding a partner to validate you and all you see together.. But whatever I'm not trying to sound like the freakin Dahlia Lama or anything..
 Saturday was 
nothing special.. Without getting in to detail cause the details SUCK.. But F people who meddle in your life.. Who clearly aren't welcome or liked - yet can't get a fucking clue.. But yeah, we wont talk about that.. 

Sunday was is a HAPPY day..Rich's momma picked me up with Allie and Mantha and we went to the Genoa Candy Dance.. It was a lot of fun and HUGE!!!! There was  only one booth out of like 300 that had candy and 
they were out of almost everything!!!WTF!!!! huh??

Tristen rode a pony and saw clowns.


 And every couple steps he was adored..
. He at one point had 3 lil girls all playing peek-a-boo with him at once.. It was so cute I had to have them take a picture with him to show daddy what a lil pimp he was.. 
 In other news.. He is sleeping in his pack and play through the night now 
- Of course not all night but he seems to be getting a little better..  The wake up's have gone down to around 7 instead of a dozen.. and We are DONE breastfeeding!!!
 
Lastly, Congrats to Marco's and Emily! Hollace Brito was born yesterday!!!

What have I done?!?!?!



No matter how many books you read or how many people tell you ... It's not your fault. When something is so to speak wrong with your baby you tend to blame yourself,Thinking of what your could have I  done different. So the PROBLEM is Tristen has been waking up increasing more and more and more..  I wrote it down last night and the night before - Tuesday night- went down at 7:40 .. Up at 8:20-9:00-9:45-10:00-10:45-12:40-1:12-3:13-4:28-5-6-7-8 I was too deliourios to write exact times.. Last night was a little better I put him in his pack  n play in our room and it seemed to help. He just seems so uncomfortable and when I try to burp him he just keep throwin himself back to lay down.. So then next thing you know he wakes up and farts a whole bunch.. and sometimes it seems like he wakes up just to make sure I didnt go anywhere.And lastly he is poppin his 2 top teeth sooooo who knows. I think this book I got is helping me a little but I think some good ol sleep would do us both good. Its just there is some things I feel I should have done sooner like having him sleep in his bed or stopping beast feeding earlier.. But then again if I were to do it all over I probably wouldnt change a thing.. I love feeling him next to me when I sleep .. and as cliche as it may sound breast feeding really is a bonding thing.. Its somethign you can do for him that no one else in the world can do.. (unless your single white female crazy) Anyways thats my rant..

Cat,Dog, Friends and Poison!

Funny how a things totally come in spurts.. I have no life then all the sudden I'm running around like a chicken with my head cut off!! Friday Nino came down to spend some time with us. It seems his time in Tahoe may be coming to a end so he is spending time with Tristen and us to before he goes.. On Friday Nina came by baring gifts.. Tristen's Favorite kind of gift BOOKS!! More and more he loves books and has recently learned 2 new words!! GOG and CAAAAAAAAAAT! I think its amazing being only 9 months old but I think as a mother we all think our kids are special..lo lOn Saturday Tristen was invited to Cailynn Dollars 1st birthday! We didn't take any picture but and I'm waiting from Brianna (my favorite lil hippie) to send some .. Of course we weren't informed that the party had changed locations so we took a pit stop goign through Lampe Park and there was a HUGE festival going on.. As Im cussing up a storm cause I cant find 'em I slowly come to the realization.. Im at like a Church festival..So anyways that was a ball.lol.

Happy 1st Birthday Miss Dollar!!! 


 We found them had a short visit,watched Cailynn GO crazy over her cake then ventured home to meet up more visitors!!
 Jason L made a appearance, Which was awesome he was in our wedding and well we haven't seen him since.Even though he lives in RENO.It was also his first time meeting Tristen. My favorite words out of his mouth..
 "Wow..I mean it like both of you.. Like you boned and that's what happen"LOL... Whale yea J!!!And to think he's one of our SMART friends LOL..  You got to love him!! Shortly after his arrival came J-Bird,Mercy and Keenan. Keenan has a new BEAUTIFUL tattoo.. Mercy is going through some hardcore crap and it truly breaks my heart for her. How a person can take vows and really dismiss them as nothing more than words on paper..  So sad. Anyways we still made best of the visit and had some laughs,Beers and BOMB Tacos !! Sunday was mellow and Come Monday Tristen had his Well Baby Check up.. He is 24.11 oz.  29 1/2 inches Happy and Healthy but with a CHRONIC wake up problem. I feel like I have tried everything and even went to the library to get more info.Last night I finally wrote it down and basically he wakes up every 40-6o mins. I guess its common around 9 months but its bad.. REALLY bad.. 
Other than that I tried to Poison Tristen Tuesday night...  I attempted to give him some Tylenol for his teeth.. and instead grabbed his fluoride. Where he is only supposed to have a drop of that.. I gave him 2 Dropper fulls thinking it was Tylenol!!! This is at 3:30 in the morning.. So I have a semi-freak out ...Look online to see if its really bad.. and come to find Fluoride is a poison!! So next thing I know I am on the phone with poison control at 3:30 in the morning!!! Luckily he said no to worry and because hes a big boy he probably wont even get a tummy ache.. wheeeeeeeeeeew!!! 
So that all good fun I tell ya!!! And this is just a picture of Tristen and daddy that I love.. Lots of Love ME

Day to Day

The last couple have days have been quite busy..Thank Goodness.. I have been doing a lot of complaining about neeeeeeeeeeeeding something to do.. A class - A project- A Group something.. And Although I have been looking I haven't found anything yet  that has sparked my interest.. But in the meantime I have found some ways to keep my days  busy..Sunday Tristen started his 4th disc of Your Baby Can Read. Its crazy how absorbed he gets into.. but he's learning .. That's how he learned his "Arm's Up"!!!.

On Monday and Tuesday we spent sometime with Nina Jessica. 
Did what we love the most and Sunday walked around Target and Ross.. Got Tristen a 2 pack of Jammie's for $3.50 Whooo Hoo!! 
Tuesday I went to my WIC appointment and met up with Jess to do Breakfast - This turned out to be a semi-nightmare.. Tristen decided he want to test his vocal cords to the FULLEST. Mind you we went to a Lil diner that was full of old time locals I'm sure..And where normally you get the smiles of "I remember those days" Those friendly smiles started to turn into the look of "MY god Lady control your kid!!"..Not only was his yellling and singing he decided to play Throw everything thing on the floor game.. AND lastly .. This adorable lil 2 year old girl walks in(we were in the booth right next to the front door) and she goes straight to give Tristen a kiss.. AWW tooo cute right?!?!?!.. He straight up slapped her full force across the face!!!
 So horrible- At this point I wont even look at the people in the
 restaurant.. Not only That my food was like .. "Sure Ill take some slop with my heap of onions.. I get it you hate me..So anyways after that CRAP... We went roaming around some thrift shops and scored a See n Say for .50 cents!!! 
SO on to Wednesday Rich had the day off..
 
SO we made plans to go see my mom and take G'ma.. 
IT was GREAT to see G'ma sooo happy and spend time with her...
Little did we all know how far Fallon really is....
 So after miles and miles of feilds..We made it!!!Mom was super happy to see us and made some good Puerto Rican foods.. We went for a drive to see there new place they are moving into and for the most part just hung out and watched Tristen torment the cat.and waited for him to keep
 doing his funny face!! 









LOL.. Alena and her boyfriend Alex were there too..They are cute.. AWW  young love..  I think watching Tristen a mile a minute was a quick form of birth control..
It was a good time..It was an exciting day for G'ma ... 



 I just hate that they are sooooooo Freakin far. I love my famery.. and thats it for now.. Thanks for all the comments!!

To Remember..













SO I always find myself reading Krystals blog and saying I need to do that -
I need to do SOMETHING- A diary a Journal anything.. I have a hard time remembering what I did last week and WHALE.. These are the times I want to remember Forever! And other than his baby book - I have nothing to look back and on and say awww thats when.. bla bla bla..


So Here we go..

He's 9 MONTHS OLD TODAY!!!
I just got Tristen to sleep after 20 mins of crying by far one of the worse things about parenting. It breaks my heart to be the reason he is crying- When he looks at me with the tear stained face and the look of "Why are you doing this to me?!?!?" and then you remember all those times growing up youd hear..."Its for your own good" ... lol .. Anyways, As for his milestones

He can stand by himself- Has taken a step -walks with his truck, Has 2 teeth - Crawls faster than a speeding bullet - Growls at me!! and says Dada allllll the time.. funny since Im the one who is with him ALL the time!



I hope I can keep up on this and I'am excited to have a new lil hobby - Thanks Krystal!
