Grateful to get these!

I can't tell you how grateful I am to have this photograph, had I known, we would have taken a thousand more! This is my cousin Gina holding Thomas. Gina passed away a few days after this photo was taken. I am so glad that Thomas got to meet her and so sad that he does not get the chance to really know his cousin Gina. Grateful that I have memories of her to pass along.

Savannah put the camera down long enough to let us get a picture of her holding Thomas.

Family Time


Thursday and Friday we were in Union and mainly hung out at my Grandparent's house. Thomas enjoyed spending time with all of our relatives. In the above picture Thomas was supposed to be taking a nap but Snowball the cat had other ideas! Snowball pushed open the door and stared at Thomas until he woke up. Thomas of course had a GREAT time talking to and looking at the cat!!!

Aunt Linda and Aunt Betty got Thomas a Spongebob hat...if it were only a little bit bigger Dad might have stolen it!

Sitting on Great-Grandpa Doil's lap and trying his best to grab that super cool mustache!
Sitting on Grandpa Aron's lap and successfully grabbing his beard!

Chillin' with Grandma Paulette! I think he was getting ready to go down for his "cat" nap in this picture!

Great-Grandma Maria feeding him and Aunt Linda stealing a kiss.

He stopped squirming long enough to take a good picture with Great-Grandma Maria!

Aunt Linda feeding him!

Aunt Linda said she knew he would love her because she was crazy! She was right...he LOVES her and was giggling at her funny faces!

He certainly loved his Aunt Linda and her crazy antics but he loved his Aunt Betty and her sweet voice just as much!
