In an effort to prove that Tommy has parents, and not just photographers, here are some pictures of Tyler and I with our adorable son.

After. And he can't even walk yet. And yes, that's him scooting out of the picture. He's trying to catch Georgia.

Mess Maker

Before

Eight Months Old

Yesterday Tommy was eight months old, and every time I tried to get a picture of the boy he would scoot on over and try to eat the camera.

Tommy loves to chase (slowly) our cat Georgia. Her favorite hiding spot is under the changing table where she can still keep an eye on him.

Gavin came over for a bit one afternoon and they kept themselves entertained by pulling toys out of the basket.

This is Thomas's bedroom, which he has yet to sleep in.

In an effort to win something possibly quite strange from Autumn (Chicky), I have posted this here. I too, maybe Liz..., will honor the post. Please, let us know when you post this to your blog or comment back here to win!

The Management (Tyler)

"The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations: 1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make! 2. What I create will be just for you. 3. It'll be done this year. 4. You have no clue what it's going to be. It may be a song. It may be a self portrait or maybe even some creation I haven't yet dreamed up. I may draw. I may bake you something and mail it to you. It may not be big or impressive. Who knows? Not you, that's for sure! So come on, sign up! 5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.
The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must re-post this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. The first 5 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they did win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me!"

Thomas Walsh Barrus joined the Barri clan on January 23, 2009. Liz and I are very, very excited to have him in our family!
