Happy 2nd Birthday!!

We cannot believe our little boy is two years old!  He has brought so much excitement to our lives. What did we do before we had Thomas? It is amazing how much he has grown up over these past 2 years.  

At his 2 year check up he weighed 30.10 pounds and is 37 inches tall.  Our pediatrician said he looks great!  Thomas talks all the time now.  He says some pretty funny things.  Anytime I talk to someone on the phone or in person he says, "Who dat?" when I answer him he say "oh."  When he falls or bumps into something, he tells us everytime, "I fine."  I guess he doesn't want his mommy to worry he was hurt!  

We had a birthday party with some of Thomas' friends the morning of his birthday.  We rented a Moon Bounce for the kids to jump in.  Thomas wouldn't get in it, but all the other kids enjoyed it!

The next day we had family over for BBQ and more jumping.  It was a great birthday weekend!

Gymnastics

Thomas started Gymnastics class a few weeks ago.  He loves it!  He cheers for everyone after its their turn.  During class they jump on the trampoline, crawl/walk over an obstacle course, work on the beam, and practice on the low bar.  Here are some pictures of him during his first class.

Two loves!

Here is a picture of two things that Thomas loves!  Thomas loves my brother, Doug.  He calls him Gunkle.  He talks about Gunkle all the time!  One morning Thomas woke up and was talking to himself in his crib.  He was saying, "No, No Gunkle" over and over again.  I'm not sure what Gunkle did, but Thomas was telling him no, no.  If you know Doug, then you know that Thomas isn't the first one that has told him no!
Thomas also loves cutting grass with Gunkle (or just riding on the lawnmower!).  He watches him while he edges and does the weed eating.  When Doug is mowing Thomas rides with him.  He loves it!!  Anytime Thomas sees or hears a lawnmower he says with a smile, GUNKLE!!!
