Happy First Birthday Tommy!

Yesterday was Tommy's first birthday. I can't believe how fast this last year went, and how fast my baby has grown! We had our families over for cake and ice cream. Tommy didn't quite now what to do with all of the attention! He was a little timid with the cake at first, and then he really got into it by smushing it in his hands and pretending he was rubbing in lotion (it's so funny-whenever he sees me rubbing lotion on my hands he rubs his hands together too!) I just want to tell my sweet little boy how much I love him, and how grateful I am to be his mommy.


Here are a few things about Thomas at age 1:

  • He loves to cuddle and when I pick him up he always gives me pat on the back

  • He always has a smile (well, almost always) on his face and loves to laugh

  • His favorite toys are cars and he loves to drive them on the ground

  • He also loves to look at books and point to the pictures

  • He is a very good eater and will eat just about anything I put infront of him

  • His hair has awesome body and will not lay down no matter what I try!

  • He finally started crawling on new years eve!

  • Most of all he is a little angel who brings me so much joy

I love you Tom Tom!

The Birthday Boy!

Not quite sure what he should do . . .

Now he's got the hang of it!

Opening his super cool digger truck!

Taking the truck for a spin just he before he tipped over!

Lindsay,
Sorry we couldn't make it! I really missed it - it seems like I haven't seen family in awhile. Tommy is cute! Also Hawaii sounded wonderful! I hope to make it there with my kids someday!

That's so cute! Happy Birthday, Thomas! Can you tell me how you did your blog design? I seriously can't figure out how to do it.

Holy cow, Lindsay D! How are you? Just the other day I was thinking about watching "Adventures in Babysitting" at your house on the beta. Those were the days! PS-Your kids are super cute!!

I'm so glad I got to see Hawaii photos! Alexis and Tommy were such cute beach babies! I hope Tommy loves his Handle Hauler! Bryson and Tommy can ride their trucks together! Guess what Lindsay, Abby has an ear infection-I just might go crazy!!!

He is so cute! I can't believe he is a year-old already! Time sure flies!

Hi Linds - Tommy is so cute!! Josie also gives me pats on the back when I hug her and it is my favorite thing EVER. It's like a little pat of appreciation. Your kids are both adorable and I'm soooo jealous you got to go to Hawaii for Christmas!!!

Lindsay, You probably don't remember me because it's been along time but we had some classes together at the U and at that time you were engaged to your husband. Anyway I came upon your site and just have to say you have a beautiful family. I hope things are going great for you! Susan (cline) Stroud.
