Birthday Presents, anyone?

Meme - I know you will appreciate this, but to all other grandmothers, aunts, etc., I purchased some outfits for Tripp last night. If you'd like one for a birthday present, here you go! But if not, no big deal, we were going to buy them anyway.

Allen, of course, thinks he looks like a girl in all of them.

And by the way, monograms or appliques will be added...

Annual Blogger?

I'm famous for starting projects that I don't finish, i.e. outfit sewn for Tripp, cleaning out my closet, Tripp's baby book, & now I'm adding blogging to the list. But I've realized throughout the first year of Tripp's life, I spend a lot of time on the phone retelling the same Tripperoo stories over and over. So wouldn't it make sense to post the stories just once and let everyone read them when they can? Yes, it makes sense. This doesn't mean that I'm swearing off phone calls - oh no. But maybe this will cut them in half. You're welcome, Allen.

Most recent Tripp story - he's a kisser. I mean, an open-mouthed, full-tongued kisser. And he loves to kiss no one more than himself...

And can you blame him? Who wouldn't want to kiss a face like that?


Occasionally though, he saves a smooch for his best girl.
