Family Time

Hello to everyone. It has been an exciting time over the past couple of weeks for Thomas. Tommy's parents came into town to see him and Aunt Megan finally got to come and see him for the first time. It was a lot of fun. He is getting bigger everyday and is now exclusively in 9 months clothing (even though he just turned 4 months).

Here is Thomas in the walker Aunt Megan, Aunt Melanie, Mere and Papa got him. He loves it but is about a 1/2 inch away from being able to get the best leverage. Plus we need to find socks that have grippy feet so he can move better.

Him hanging in his walker. Right now he can only turn right and go backwards but loves to be able to move even though it is not the way he wants to go. He loves the bar and toys, he uses them as chew toys.

Here is the family sitting with him in the kitchen, getting him to move. Mable loves Thomas in the walker because it is on her level and she can sneak kisses whenever possible.

We went down to Lawrenceburg to see Papa's family. Here is Uncle Mike holding Thomas before they go to the Xavier game.

Thomas likes to stand up even if it is on Aunt Megan's hair.

Thomas with Papa and Great Grandma Betty. Grandma was amazed by how big he is getting and he had to be introduced to all of her friends.

Mere enjoying her time with Thomas. He is starting to get teeth, although none have popped through yet, so he has been chewing on his hands and drooling constantly.

Mere getting the chance to feed Thomas his lunch time bottle. Check out his leg warmers. 80s here we come.

All of the McLaughlin's hanging out with Thomas. From left to right (Uncle EG, Alaina, Ann Alyse, Mere with Thomas and Papa.)

Great Grandma and Thomas. He loved getting to see everyone so much.

Thomas flying with Aunt Megan. We were so happy that Aunt Megan got to come in and see him even if it was only for two days.

Aunt Megan talking to Thomas.

Thomas talking to Mere. He loves having new people to hang out with.

Papa, Aunt Megan and Thomas enjoying time together. Thomas loves to stand and walk but you have to hold him by the under arm or chest if not you get yelled at (his shoulder might come out of socket).

The Cousins and Thomas. Ann Alyse, Alaina, and Whitter.

Aunt Megan brought her two dogs Biscuit and Bruin and they loved spending time with Thomas. Thomas loves dogs and follows them everywhere when they are running around.

Momma Sallie with Biscuit. Mable doesn't like to climb on our laps but Biscuit would sleep there all day.
