Thomas - 2 Months

These last 2 months with Thomas have flown by!  So much so that I'm a week late in posting this but the pictures were taken on the 18th so at least they're on time.

We had a doctor visit on the 19th to check him out and let him get his first round of shots.  He's put on some weight coming in at 11lbs 1 oz.  And he's grown several inches to 22 1/4. 

The coolest thing is being able to watch his personality develop.  He is clearly a morning person...wonder who he got that from lol.  And he's awesome at smiling back at you when you smile at him or tickle him. 















His 2 month b-day was his first day to go stay at Grrrandpapa and Gigi's house too.  We are blessed to have grandparents who can watch him.  And needless to say, that first morning I pulled up guess who was waiting on the front porch for her little one.

 
There is no way that I would have made it thru 2 months with a baby if it wasn't for Brittnee.  I must admit I have been amazed by how much she's able to do and how good she is with him.  Don't get me wrong, we still get frustrated with each other sometimes but I have got to respect the hours she spends feeding and comforting him in only the special way a mother can.

2020 is Hindsight...Finally!

Wow, what a year! 2020 could literally be an entire decade, maybe more, of history, change, and lessons rolled up into these twelve months. While many aspects of 2020 were kind of sucky and we would like to forget them, it will certainly be a year to remember. And it will be enlightening when this year is looked back on in 10, 25, or 50 years to be discussed. I wonder if we'll seem like geniuses or idiots? Probably both to some extent! While there is so much that I could consider and analyze about this year, I'll try to break some of it down into four dimensions - Physical, Spiritual, Mental, and Social/Emotional. These are events and happenings from my world and perspective and I'm trying to be open in sharing and would love to hear from others on events you found most transforming. Physical When COVID cause gyms to close, that messed me up. Our town and state were late to be hit with severe cases and therefore later than many across the country to close up shop. I'm n

2020 Books

  I mentioned previously on Facebook that I'd share the books I've read in 2020 in case anyone is looking for a new read. Plus I figure this post can serve as one for friends to share some that they've enjoyed this past year as well. How to Win Friends and Influence People - Andrew Carnegie. This is a good book about personal development, relationships, etc. Vertical Marriage - Dave & Ann Wilson. Based on the title, obviously this was a book on marriages. While you'll see a few others on this list, this one was one of my favorites. How to Get Promoted - Anthony Park. Sorry boss! The worst part is I read this AFTER my annual review lol. It is good for people just getting their career started or working in larger corporations where you can get lost in the shuffle. The Power of Positive Thinking - Norman Vincent Peale. Great book on personal development. Leadership in Turbulent Times - Doris Kearns Goodwin. This book chronicles the life of 4 presidents, Lincol

First Blog

It's hard to decide what you want to write in your first blog since first impressions are so important.  So I figured I would start with the main reason the Brittnee and I decided to start a blog (if the name hasn't given it away) and that is the upcoming birth of our first child.  The sex hasn't been determined yet so for now it is referred to as ThomAva, a combination of the names we have selected.  So far so good with everything though as our little one gave us a thumbs up at our last ultra sound. She has also convinced me to buy a nice (female code word for expensive) camera so I'm sure there will be many more higher quality photos to come.   I always said that my, Kat's, and Jordan's childhood could have been a reality show before reality shows were cool so I look forward to using this blog to share and remember both new and old family stories.  And to hopefully share with others the blessings that God has given me over the years and as a way to wit
