This has been a summer to remember. This little boy has had A LOT of fun and has had many fun experiences. Lets start with the 4th of July. Little Thomas loved the parade, seeing firetrucks and floats and all kinds of things that go. He was mesmerized. He tried very hard to make it through the firework show but fell asleep and even slept through the very noisy finale!
Ah playing in the warm summer rain. Catching them on his little tongue makes it even better! What a little cutie.
It is so hard to get a good pool picture!!! But you get the drift. Thomas loves the water and the pool. He squealed and shrieked with delight. He played and swam until everyone at the pool got kicked out because some little toddler puked in the pool. Bio-hazard! Oh yeah and it was Thomas :)
Thomas LOVES his garden boots. He loves to put them on and explore the garden. This is a picture of Thomas and his Dad inspecting the gigantic caterpillar we found in our yard. Check it out!
Look at that thing! He was huge!
This little boy had a very shaggy little mane. After I took this picture I realized it was time for a little trim :)
Little man threw a nasty little tantrum when I scolded him for picking some un-ripe tomatoes. In order to calm him down ( He was ANGRY!) I let him pick the rest of the blueberries on our little bush. He was so happy! :)
He even ate the green ones!
Just look at those big blue eyes.
Silly Thomas! You are too big for that Tractor.
We decided to have a little fun weekend and set up the ten in the basement. The little boy went nuts! He bounced and bounced and played and played and had a grand time.
Of course he loved his smores. He kept saying Mmmm. Mmmm
Story time with Papa in the tent. We tried to all sleep in the tent, but Thomas was so hyper he was literally bouncing off the walls of the tent. Clint said, "Its like we caught a wild baby animal and let him lose in the tent."
We took a little outing to the pet store. Thomas loved the kittens!
And of course he loved the puppies! Here he is panting like a dog.
He kept pointing and saying "Turtle! Turtle!"
We went on another fun outing to the Children's Museum. They were having a special tractor exhibit outside. As you well know, Tractors are this little boy's favorite thing in the entire world. So he basically went nuts.
Two little boys and one very big tractor
Just look at that grin!
He drives like a pro.
What a silly little monkey! I love saying that because he always makes a little monkey noise when I say it. Ahh ahh ahh! Thomas is such a joy to have around and we just love him to pieces. He is at a very fun stage and is learning and growing so quickly. He is really growing up fast! Can't believe he is 18 months old now!

On that very last picture, he is pulling one of your expressions. I swear there is a picture of you making a "this is what the bunny says" face and it looks just Thomas' expression here!
As for that caterpillar, I'm a little creeped out! That thing is huge! It looks more like a snake!
As for me, I woke up in the middle of the night because of a dream about mice and voles. We found a couple dead mice in our yard this week and what I think might be some vole holes and my nightmare woke me up!
Thomas is adorable! My favorite is the pic of him with the baby milo
What a sweet little man, I can't believe how grown up he is getting. In the rain picture he looks a lot like Clint. 18 mo is a great age, not to mention getting to go to nursery, that was the best. Hope all is well with you all and we'd love to see you when we come to Cbus for MArk's interview.
This makes me miss him so much. He is so curious and loves life! I love him!!!
LAURIE!!! I'm so sorry I haven't even called you back yet! Holy cow, things have been soooo busy around here, it's insane. I'd love to talk to you soon though, I'll try you tomorrow. PS keep these posts coming...I love reading your blog and seeing little Thomas grow. He's so cute. Miss you!
