Hey there! Tommy’s future brother or sister here…just a brief interruption on my big bro’s blog to bring you the latest on my development. Today was my very first ultrasound. I am growing quickly and right on schedule according to all the high-tech measurements. I am 12 1/2 weeks right now and looking forward to [...]
Today Tommy enjoyed his first concert, Sesame Street Live at UNLV’s Cox Pavilion. He absolutely loved it! (Though you can’t tell from the picture above…lately it’s been very challenging to get him to smile for the camera.) As each of his Sesame Street friends came on stage he squealed with joy, and did a pretty [...]
In recent weeks, Tommy’s preparing for his role as Big Brother by playing with a new friend: Baby Doll. Today he brought BD to the lunch table with us and helped him drink from a cup. He loves to shower his new friend with cuddles, kisses and joyful tosses across the room (he’ll only be [...]
Tommy and his Uncle Derick perform an impressive stunt for the camera…Derick carefully balances his beloved nephew while Tommy picks his nose. This takes talent, folks. TJ enjoyed a rowdy evening playing with his uncle, in which he showcased his somersault skills and wiggle worm floor routine. Below you’ll find a quick video of one [...]
More driving! This time Tommy’s behind the wheel of a non-smelly garbage truck. He got to climb around in the cab of the truck at a local environmental fair on Earth Day. He did NOT want to come down from his perch! We hope this doesn’t point toward a career as a sanitation engineer…
*Important note: This day I actually got our son to wear a hat (that doesn’t require velcro) for more than 30 seconds! He must love his Uncle Derick’s Astros. Tommy enjoys the play structure at a new park near our home. He has so much fun jogging across this wobbly bridge! The giggles as he [...]
Tommy relaxes with Mommy before heading up to bed. Our little guy, who used to retire promptly at 7pm, has stretched his bedtime to between 7:30 and 8pm lately. Extra energy to burn off after our evening meal? Too many cookies for dessert? Can’t bear the thought of missing Wheel of Fortune? Only he knows [...]
Below you’ll find a couple of Tommy videos we took back in January and February. I’m playing catch up! Tommy dukes it out with Leo, the Boston Terrier: Tommy “skis” in our family room with Daddy’s help: And for a limited time, Tommy’s agreed to share his blog with his new brother or sister…here’s video [...]
Tommy loves to help himself to apples on the kitchen table…any excuse to climb on the chairs! With his climbing skills improving (and his willfulness increasing) we often find him perched atop one of the chairs reaching for whatever he can get his hands on. He even knows what to say when he gets caught: [...]
The sandbox is very serious business for Mr. Tommy. I couldn’t coax a smile out of this child for the life of me while he played there the other day. It’s by far his favorite park activity for the time being. Do you think he’s trying to tell us that he needs some beach time [...]
Tommy enjoyed a very fun Easter this year. He joined friends in an Easter Egg Hunt at his friend Olivia’s birthday party (birthday girl is in the floral dress on the left). Here Tommy and his good buddy, Ryan, make like their daddies and determine whether they have a better shot at the 3rd or [...]
…Is licking the spoon! Tommy helped Mommy bake a cake the other day and he LOVED the clean-up far more than mixing batter. I don’t blame him!
