Baby Blessing and Visitors

We blessed baby Tristan on Sunday. My whole family flew over for the blessing and a mini vacation and Christian's parents flew over for the weekend. We belong to such wonderful families and are so grateful for all of their support. I was really nervous for the blessing only because it was my second time back at church with Tristan and I'm still not sure how he behaves in public, especially a reverent sacrament meeting. Christian gave a beautiful blessing and Tristan did so great. Not a peep out of him.


Tristan getting excited before church. So excited, he barely slept the night before!



T got to meet some of his cousins for the first time. Baby Von was born in December and Addison just turned three.

Von is such a sweet baby and a snuggle bug. (It was my first time meeting Von too!) Addison is a big ham and loves to entertain. She found Papa's glasses and reading book and pretended to read for almost an hour.

It's fun that the boys are so close in age.


Spending time with Tutu and Nama.


Our first time in a restaurant with Tristan. We went to Dukes in Waikiki. He did really well at first but there was one point in the night where Tristan, Von, and Addison were all screaming and crying at the same time. That's when we knew we had to leave. We apologized to the tables next to us. :)


I'm bummed that I didn't get more pictures of the family while they were here. I think they were looking for crabs in this picture.

We heard Christian did a great job. Wish we could have been there. Keep him tiny until we can meet him, please.
