We went over a friends house for the 3rd of July, part of that was fireworks over the bay. It was a beautiful clear warm night and we had a blast. I was worried Tristan would be scared of the fireworks, but he loved them and actually watched them. It was amazing! I was a little nervous with all of the bang pops and sparklers around, my nephews kept wandering closer to the baby. I can’t seem to relax around sparklers, I feel that everyone forgets how hot they are and that they can seriously burn you. I saw 2 and 3 year olds with sparklers and they had them right by their faces. I found it more stressful then fun, I know that every parent has to make their choice about children and fireworks, I just have a hard time keeping my mouth closed. Thankfully a DC firefighter came over and reminded everyone how dangerous they can be. After that I relaxed and enjoyed the show.

Tristan is now eating a lot of table food, he got to try bbq ribs, grilled chicken, potato salad, and pasta salad. I can’t get over how good he was the whole day. I try to plan my schedule around his so I can keep him on his eating and sleeping schedule. We had him out until one am and he was fine. He went to sleep around 10 pm after the fireworks and stayed asleep through all the transfers from the party to the car to his crib. I truly have been blessed with a good baby.
