More of Tripp's New Friends

During a visit to Birmingham last weekend to visit Shug & Papa Ferguson, Tripp made a few new friends.   It was so much fun to watch him interact with another baby as well as some other folks.  Below are some of the photos we snapped over the weekend.

First up, the son of one of my oldest friends, Julian Bynum, and his wife, Jillian, came to visit all the way from NYC.  Introducing Mason Bynum (4 mos), who is just 5 weeks younger than Tripp.  These boys will have such a good time once they are able to play.

Tripp is so excited to meet his new friend, Mason!

"Mason, you have more hair than I do now, but I will catch up soon, buddy."

 Next, Tripp got to meet my friend, Clarke Bohorfoush, who came by to visit and catch up.

Finally, Tripp got to meet my God daughter, Katherine Grace Whatley (6 yrs).... and, this was his first time playing in an exer-saucer, which was a big hit.  KG & the exer-saucer kept him entertained while KG's mom, Mallie, and I caught up on all the news of the world.

She's a very experienced big sis to sisters Dorothy & Charlotte, so she knew just how to play.

In other news, I promised an update on rice cereal and just realized that I have not yet given one.  Tripp is doing great on solid foods and we're phasing out the rice cereal, but here is one picture of a recent rice cereal feeding... Messy, but worth it! Yum-O-La!

Hope everyone has a great weekend!  Enjoy the 'game of the century' tonight & Geaux Tigers!

Tripp's Many Admirers

Tripp has been very popular in his first 2.5 weeks on Earth and has had lots of visitors. We have tried to get pictures of everyone, but have failed in that mission so this is a post of just some of the folks who have been nice enough to drop by and meet baby Tripp.  Thanks to everyone who has come to visit & we look forward to seeing you again.  We have enjoyed seeing everyone & introducing Tripp to all of you!
