Pals

This is Thomas and his pal Benny. Nothing like sharing a walker together. 

We plan to show this video to these boys in 2029 at their high school graduation party. :-)

Shaggy to Short

The Beiber shag could only last for so long. The time finally came to give Thomas his first haircut. 

Here is the original shag in all its glory.

All set!

The first snip and still happy (sort of).

Of course no first haircut is complete without a few tears. 

The tears did not last long at all and mommy was able to keep Thomas distracted for the remainder of the cut. 

All done! Our stylist, Bailey, was awesome with Thomas!

Our big boy after his first haircut!

Here Reggie Reggie Reggie . . . .

One thing that Thomas finds super cool about the ability to move is the opportunity to keep up with Reggie. Fortunately, Reggie indulges Thomas (I think he likes the attention).

That is a mischievous grin if I ever saw one . . .

Off to track down Reggie.

Getting closer . . . .

Shoot, Reggie gets away again. Better luck next time buddy. :-)

These I had to post because he is just so dang cute post-bath.

Always a smile for the camera.

Taaa Daaa!!

After wiggling, rolling and some solid army crawling, Thomas decided to make it official and crawl for real! He still prefers the army crawl but as you can tell from my enthusiastic cheering, I think this crawling thing is super cool!

Sun Valley with my buddy

Scot had a conference in Sun Valley this weekend so Thomas and I went up there with him for some resort living. Our friends, the Wolff's, were up there too so Thomas got to hang with his buddy Alex.

Scot is the coolest dad and pulled the boys around in a wagon during apres ski at Sun Valley.

Big Time!

Life is full of new adventures and achievements for little Thomas this past week. He is officially army crawling which has Scot and I scrambling to baby proof the house and Thomas seeking out all sorts of new trouble and fun!

Fun with cabinets at grandma and grandpa Scheffels.

First army crawl captured on video! I love that he is motivated by the iPad.

1st Easter

We had a beautiful Easter weekend! On Saturday we attended our friends, the Wongs, annual children's Easter egg hunt. Turns out Thomas loves plastic Easter eggs, they are the perfect size for holding and putting in his mouth. 

The kids lined up and waiting for the hunt to start.

 Lovin' the sunshine and plastic eggs.

 On Easter morning Thomas got to open his Easter basket. More plastic eggs!!

All dressed up for church.

The rest of our Easter was really nice. We went to church and then brunch with the grandparents. Scot got to watch The Masters and I did a bunch of yard work. The weather was beautiful so I loved it and the result is one nice looking front lawn. :-)
