Tommy Update-22 Months

Here are few things Tommy is doing right now. We sure love this little dude!

*says "bless you" when I sneeze (we've both been sneezing lately due to colds)
*can open all our doors so we have child proof (and sometimes adult proof) door knob covers
*if he knows I'm about to leave, he'll hug me for a long time, then look at me, and wrap his arms around me again saying, "momma!", not wanting me to go. I love that and wish it wasn't just when I leave!
*Daddy taught him how to tackle (still learning Not to tackle momma)
*still loves trucks, tractors, machines and Elmo. He has to sleep with at least one truck and elmo.
*so cute when he says 'Hooold On' when we take a turn in the car or in the stroller
*loves to put socks on his hands and say "hello puppet!"
*will say 'that's funny' and give a fake laugh, at something he does or when he sees us laughing
*can really jump now, with both feet off the floor and says 'I'm jumpin'!'

Family Photos

We had our family pictures taken in September at the Dallas Arboretum. Our photographer, Emily Murdock did an excellent job. She was really sweet and great with Tommy. Although it was an extremely hot and humid morning, as you can tell from my hair, I am happy with how they turned out.

I highly value family pictures and don't understand those that think it's a waste of money. I think they were worth EVERY penny, considering I don't have any connections with photographers and I knew  she was going to be good because of a referral. So...yes, pictures cost money, but these photos will always bring back priceless memories of our sweet family at this stage in our lives.
Enjoy!


 













That smile melts my heart!
