6 Months & Kickin'

Tommy's greatest milestones lately: playing and being a ham.

He's rolling around the room, jabbering, spitting, eating lots of food, sitting up with all the other tough guys, and handing out smiles and belly laughs like it's no big deal.

He eats his feet (and ANYTHING that he can get near his face) 'cause it's the cool thing to do.

He wants to move. He really thinks about it. He might even spin in a circle, but when it comes down to it, rolling is his travel of choice.

Thomas loves his weekly "Mom's Day". We do it for the kids...it's not like we enjoy it. Sometimes we try to craft. Turns out DIY is totally "in" right now and great for saving money from time to time. Mostly it just stresses me out. My friend, Michelle, picked up all the supplies for these wreaths, which FORCED me to do something creative. I worked up a little sweat with all that hot gluing, but I suppose I could enjoy crafting every now and again...with the proper guidance.

It snowed on Friday. Like crazy. Chris' office was closed and he worked (and played) from home. Above is maybe his fifth trip to the driveway with the shovel. There is still a car across the street today that cannot be seen. It is completely submerged in snow.

No need to go anywhere in that weather. We stayed in our sweats all day long and accomplished some much needed cleaning of the house, and rearranging of the basement...and playing with Tommy.

An awesome book club friend sewed a tie-shirt for T. He thinks it's pretty cool.

Studying the best technique to either bang toys together or bring to mouth.

I wonder how many times I've kissed those cheeks. So many, but never enough.

Daddy, working from home.

I can never read to Thomas before bed/nap time. He pants, squawks, and kicks his legs in excitement. He loves those books.

Aimsley, Thomas, and Calum are into scary movies lately. They really give Thomas a thrill....or maybe this was the Super Bowl...

Party kids.

What a crew. T is lucky to have such great friends!
