Two Months Already!

I can't believe that it's been 2 months since Tristan came into our lives already! He's getting to the fun stage now, smiling and "talking" to us-instead of crying when he's awake.

He's getting so big wearing 3-6 month cloths. We've had a really busy April. Easter weekend we went up to Grammi and Papa's house in NW Wisconsin for a three day weekend-the weather was beautiful so we spent quite a bit of time outside. Here's a picture of the boys on the deck in the sunshine on Easter Sunday up at our friends the Rossmeisl's house after the Easter Egg Hunt.

We had a great time introducing Tristan to our Family up north.

The next weekend was Tristan's baptism at Rochester Covenant Church-we are waiting for the pictures from Papa's camera! Tristan was quite the little performer at the service-cooing and smiling at the congregation during his introduction. He wore the same baptismal gown that Connor and Garin wore that was given to us by my Grandma Dorothy who is looking down at all of us from heaven now-I am sure she's very proud of all her great grandsons.

Mommy went back to work on April 20-sad, sad day for sure! It was hard leaving my favorite job-Mommy but Tristan is in the loving and very capable hands of our good friend Jeanne at Jeanne's Tiny Tots Daycare right across the street so we know he's getting lots and lots of hugs and kisses while we are at work. He's adjusted very well and everyone is getting into our new routine.

A few more pictures before I have to get off the computer

So, the baby is crying and I only have a few more seconds to post a few pictures of our family...Tristan is starting to coo and smile which is so cool. Connor and Garin are the best big brothers and Jim couldn't be any more of a proud daddy.

Kiss the Cup!

The Stanley Cup made it's way into Rochester on March 30 so we had the opportunity to go and kiss the cup. Garin and I had our 15 seconds of fame with the hockey legend and it was an awesome experience!

Our life so far

It's been a very busy first five weeks with a new baby in the house! We finished up the hockey season and Tristan was at the rink five days after he was born. Both Connor and Garin's hockey teams finished in first place for their divisions for Rochester Youth Hockey-Congrats!

We headed up to Minneapolis for our final tournament of the season March 13-15 and had our first night in a hotel-it went very well. Connor's team placed 4th overall and Garin's team was 6th. We are all very glad that hockey is over for the year. Connor is playing in Spring League but that won't be nearly as much running as the regular season.

It's only taken me 5 weeks but...Introducing Tristan Leonard Groski!

I know, I know, it's taken me FOREVER but better late than never right? Tristan Leonard Groski was born on February 27 at 9:43 p.m. weighing in at 8 pounds, 3 ounces and measuring 19.5 inches.

It was a long day but once everything got moving, it only took about 2 hours to bring him into the world.
