Lasagna...yummy!

Last night we had some lasagna for dinner so we stripped down Trent's high chair, put a plastic cover underneath him and let him go to town! He really enjoyed his dinner and actually didn't get as dirty as we thought he would. The after pictures were pretty entertaining so I thought I would share them. After dinner he got a good bath that took some extra scrubbing :-)

Our weekend fun

This weekend Trent and I stayed very busy! On Saturday afternoon we made a trip to the pool with some of his little buddies. They had fun in floating around the kiddy pool since it was shallow enough for them to reach and some what walk around in. We also went into the big pool, which I think scared him a little bit because he clinged on to me so much I barely had to hold him!! Overall, he really enjoys the water, whether it's bath time, the pool or the lake. He absolutely loves splashing around. Then today one of my girlfriends and I went to check out this place in Frisco called Wiggles. It's a place for all aged kids and they have slides, play areas, bounce areas and a section for babies 0-18 months old. In that area they had foam type blocks to stack and a mini slide and area to climb, some chairs and table but Trent was the most entertained chasing around the bouncy balls with the some of the other kids. He did continue to work on his walking and would take a good 3-4 steps around before falling.

Baby Steps...

For about the past week Trent has been standing by himself; he'll pull himself up and then just stand for a minute or so before he falls. Sunday and yesterday he kept trying to make step attempts but would just fall over, so last night when I got home from work David and I sat on the floor to see if he would take a few steps to us and boy did he!!! He kept going back and forth to us a few times until he got too worn out. I'm just so happy that we both could be there to see him do this for the first time even though I'm sure this is just the beginning :-)

July 4th

For Trent's first July 4th we went out to our sister in law's parent's house. We had a really good time! During the early evening we all just hung out, the older kids played in the lake while the babies had fun playing in the bounce house. They didn't fully understand the concept of actually bouncing in it but still had fun just hanging out. After it finally got dark some of the guys put together a wonderful firework show for everyone. All the babies did great with the fireworks, except Trent. After crying for the first couple of minutes he finally calmed down and started some what enjoying them. Of course everytime one went off he would cling to David or me like no tomorrow!!

Play Room

One of the best parts of now having a home is the extra room! We have made our second living area into the play room and Trent and our friends kids love it! Lately, Trent will go in there and just start playing by himself with all of his toys. The other day I found him in the corner of the room behind his exersaucer just playing with the toys on it. Today we put together the ball pit my sister in law is letting us borrow and he was already playing with it before I had it fully together!!
