19 months already!

I can't believe my little baby boy is 19 months old today . I'm so proud of him, and so amazed by him everyday. I practically fall over with surprise when he tells me, "Mommy sit down". Or when he gets anxious and whiny at a stoplight as soon as it turns green because I didn't go yet. Or today, when he was sad and concerned at ECFE this morning because another little girl missed her mommy. He surprises me daily! Here are some of my favorite recent photos. My mom stayed with us last week because Tommy had a fever for a few days, and Tommy had a blast. I think the fever may have been on purpose to get Grandma up here. Grandpa came and stayed for a night too, and we got some cute photos.

You'll note here that he appears to be sitting on a Cabbage Patch Doll, and you are right. Tommy always backs up with books, and sits down on our laps to have us read to him. It's the cutest thing - so this day, he decided to back up onto Cabbage Patch's lap, and have her read to him. He also chose a John Hassler novel to read. He's a funny kid. My mom was laughing too hard to even take a picture!

Last weekend, we celebrated our nephew Max's 1st communion. We have so many great pictures - but here are my favorites. Tommy in a tie!

Light Sentence

Tommy is doing a good job stringing words together. We get the point when he says, "I sit down." He also likes to share success with, "I did it!" "What's that?" is an occasional question too. He even attaches "Momma" to the end of a sentence every now and again.
