Tripp is 3 months old!!

I can't believe it has been three months! Our little guy is getting so big! I just love watching him laugh and smile...he is truly a happy baby! Now, some of you have said that Tripp looks like Walker and some of you can't really tell...well, I have included below a picture of Walker when he was also three months and you tell me? Wow!!! I think they look almost identical...it is amazing the similarity!! We are about to get Tripp's 3 month professional pictures done, when we do, I will post and compare again our two boys!!

Tripp...3 months (above)

Walker...3 months (below)
What a happy boy!!! The past three months have definitely had ups and downs, but I can honestly say it is absolutely wonderful! We have a beautiful family and are extremely blessed. Tripp's little personality is showing more and more and as you can see from above, he is having a good time with his new family! He smiles, laughs, coos and kicks! He keeps us entertained. He loves bath night! You should see him kick and splash in the water...sometimes it startles me how strong his little legs are!! Nightime is going well. He goes to bed anywhere from 7 to 7:30 and sleeps until 4:00. We feed him then and he is right back to sleep until about 6:30!! We can't complain!! One night he went all the way until 5:30!! But, honestly, I think I like feeding him at 4am because then he sleeps until 6:30am!! When he slept until 5:30, he was ready to start his day....ughh! We have to thank daddy too because he rotates nights with me for the feeding!! What an awesome dad!! Tripp is taking three naps a day and one little catnap in the late afternoon around dinnertime. It is hard to get out a lot right now because he does nap so much and I am a stickler for my schedule and don't like to interfere with his naps!! It is really neat to see how he has fully adapted into a schedule and his little body repeats the same steps every single day like clockwork!!

Easter Morning with the Denning Brothers





























Here are the boys Easter morning before Church. We went to 8:00 service, so imagine how hectic this morning was...but we made it on time...early even! I love my two boys so much!!! I can already tell that I will love being the only girl in a home full of boys...I know I will be well taken care of by my sweet boys!!

































Our sweet Trippy on his first Easter...Walker wore the same bunny ears on his first Easter too!!



















I cannot believe how big my Walker is getting!! I remember when we brought Tripp home and immediately saw Walker as such a big boy!!! He is our sweet, tender-hearted and loveable boy...and at the same time is such your typical boy with his AWESOME athetic ability and the love of all his trucks, balls and rough-housing!! He was so proud and handsome in his new outfit this morning. Can't you tell from his huge smile!!!

All Aboard!!!



Thank you Nanny and Grammy for our day on the Easter Excursion Train to Watertown!! It was our first time on a real train and Walker had such a good time. We had an Easter egg hunt and a great lunch once we arrived in Watertown. The Easter Bunny even made an appearance on the train while Walker was having some grapes. He was interested in the Easter Bunny but didn't want to get too close for a hug, but he gave a high five instead!! Walker had such a good time looking out the window trying to find trash cans when we were going through neighborhoods....those of you that know him know that we might have a future garbage man on our hands!!! We bonded with our train guides and Walker told them his jokes and he did give them a hug when we were done for the day. It was a fun-filled day!!!

Night Night Sweet Baby

In the above picture, Tripp is sleeping in his boppy pillow.

Tripp is sleeping in my arms in this picture and I swear I could just stare at him all day long!!! I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!!

Brotherly Love


As you can see from above, Walker loves his baby brother!!! It really is such a sweet thing to watch them! He seems to still be adjusting very well. He loves to show him off to other people. It is so cute when I pick Walker up from school because he ALWAYS has to make sure that his teacher gets a look at Tripp! And Tripp loves to watch Walker and laugh at him when he is playing and sometimes Walker gets a little loud when he's playing and will startle Tripp and he gets this scared, pouty face...it is too adorable!!

Like Father, Like Son...

I think this picture speaks for itself!! I'm sure Walker will not be too happy about this picture when he's about 16 years old and dating...but I couldn't resist!!!
