Brothers from Another Mother

Our sweet neighbor got Thomas and Landon matching t-shirts for thier birthday from the original Bass Pro Shop in Springfield, Missouri.

Twelve Months

I know Thomas is 13 months now, but here are his 12 month pictures. I forgot to post them!

Cutie!

First Haircut

Thomas got his first haircut today. It was just getting a little long over the ears and in the back. We went to a place downtown just for kids and Pam did a great job! Thomas was great too, although slightly intrigued by the buzzing of the shaver!

At the Park

Naked Boy

While we were at Mimi and Papa's we put Thomas in the pool without anything on one time. For him I'm pretty sure it was pure joy, as you can tell from the pictures!

Water Tastes Good Out of a Hose and a Measuring Cup!

First Time in the Baby Pool

The Georgia Aquarium

We went to the Georgia Aquarium recently with Brax's parents. It was really neat and Thomas loved it!

The Cotton Pickin' Fair

We went with Papa and Mimi to the Cotton Pickin' Fair two weeks ago. Thomas played in the grass, got a new wooden duck that waddles and completely wore himself out!

Black Velvet and Grey Flannel

This post is for Hanson who gave us the Black Velvet outfit, for my mom who passed on the jacket to me, for Grandma Lu who made the jacket and for Uncle Joel who wore the jacket about twenty-and-a-half years ago.

Rainy Day Desperation

Last Friday it rained most of the day here. It was possibly the worst day I've had since Thomas was born (see I've already blocked out the hard parts at the beginning!). He's getting the two teeth on the top so he was extremely fussy and he took horrible naps which made him more fussy. Here are some of the things Rebecca and I tried on and off throughout the day to keep the boys occupied. (Landon didn't have a particularly cheerfuly day either.)

The New Toy

With some of Thomas' birthday money we got him a new slide since he loves the slide at the park so much! It's actually outside, but the day after we got it it was supposed to storm with hail so we brought it in. Thomas and Landon had fun figuring out what to do with it!

Rrrribbit!

Thomas thinks it is hilarious if after we dry him off in the evening we don't take the towel off of his head.
