Poor dogs

Poor Oscar and Effie. Thomas torments them like this EVERY day. If they are around, he is bugging them. He is starting to learn about soft touches but it's a slow process! The cutest is when he lays on top of Effie and sucks his thumb. Sometimes he even gets in her bed with her and cuddles with her.....not in this video though!

Thomas first "real" Christmas

Seeing as Thomas was only 4 months old last year, he had not much idea of what was going on. Not much has really changed actually but we were able to give him presents and he got excited. We had fun opening things on Xmas morning, but he did keep running around the living room playing with things that are not toys (ie. coasters, the stereo....) while surrounded by new toys. One toy that he did really love though was a dog puppet from his Great Aunt Gail Black. Thomas is obsessed with dogs. He spots them miles away. Seriously. Before I even hear or see them, he is going "ruff ruff, ruff ruff" and then lo and behold, a dog pops up somewhere. Gail loves dogs too and we were super thankful for the dog puppet. Thomas loves it as you can see.

Thomas sounds

I had to video this in the tub because if I try when he is playing he just wants the camera out of my hand. So the only place to get him to do his sounds was in the tub! :)
