Our two and a half year old is a silly one. He's a bit OCD about doing things on his own and germs. When he gets his mind set on something- nothing comes between him and getting it done. He still loves to help, and will often anticipate what I am about to do and rush to do it before me. He is very into racing and on a regular basis will say, "Mommy, you beating me!" even when we are in no sort of racing environment i.e. casually walking next to each other in a store.
TJ walks just like his dad, looks a lot like his dad, and bugs people for fun exactly like his dad, but he has something in common with me too- if he doesn't get his sleep, or enough food in his belly, he is a total grouch.

We were sick with lingering colds for a large portion of the past month, but thanks to lots of help from family, we were able to rest up and at least TJ is completely back to normal. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving in Tallahassee with all of my family and some friends. We also made another trip up to see Warner's baptism. We just got home yesterday and are settling down for two short weeks before our big Christmas trip to Vegas. I need your address for Christmas cards so send me an email or post it in the comment section. Thanks!

I love the pictures! I especially love the one with his grandpa Roger. He really is a "mini Roger" even though I can see his dad in him. What a cute young man. I can't wait to spend more time with him soon.
I love that duck tape road you made! So cute and such a fun idea!!! I may need to do that over here! Love that picture of TJ and your dad...SO precious! And I can't get over TJ's bike skills...good thing Lance Armstrong is already out of the picture...there's a new champ in town!
Wow, lots of fun pictures and stories I don't even know about and I was just with you a few days ago! How do you find the time with those two children of yours??? I, too, love the picture of TJ and Roger...they definitly share some genes, but you are right, TJ is more like in dad in many ways!
TJ has got to be one of the cutest little boys ever. Seriously!
We had fun seeing you! Thanks for posting all the cute pictures...maybe we will crash your vegas christmas ;)
