Travelin' Man

TJ's had a busy week and so has Daddy. Frankie had to go to Las Vegas for the Mountain West Conference Tournament for a few days last week, so TJ, Mommy and Jackson drove down to Canon City to stay with Grandma & Grandpa for a few days. TJ had a great time hanging out with his Grandparents and Aunts Angie & Diane. He also got to meet his cousin Danielle and his Uncle Paul.

TJ loves looking at Grandpa... and he makes the funniest faces at him.

He also loves it when Mommy reads Dr. Seuss's ABC book! Here's a link to a video we took during storytime. He especially likes letters F, I, and Q. (Just copy the link and paste it in your browser to watch)

On Saturday, Mommy spent her first evening away from TJ. I had an awards ceremony to attend, and since Frankie had to work late, Grandma Reno and Auntie Angie came up and watched him.

It was Grandma Reno who discovered how much TJ loves looking at his mobile in his crib. He doesn't sleep in there yet, since he still sleeps in our room, but he loves hanging out in his room.

Sunday, TJ and Mommy went to Fort Collins with Daddy for his work. We hadn't spent much time with him, so we went to work with him. ;) While in NOCO, we were able to visit with Natalie, Ryan, Connor and Logan. It was fun to see them since we hadn't visited with them since TJ was just a few days old. It was a long day, but TJ did awesome... he's such a champ and never really got fussy even though we didn't get home until midnight!

Daddy has to go out of town this week, too, and we're just going to hang out at home. TJ turns 2 months old on Thursday. He'll have his doctor's appointment that day, so we'll update you after that!

Also, I've been asked by some people what we're going to call our little Thomas Joseph and how we're going to "spell" his name. I'm very particular about how his name is written and that it's written correctly since my name is notoriously spelled wrong. The majority of the time we call him TJ... just TJ -- no periods in between. However, there are times he's called Tommy, Tommy 2 (Grandpa is Tommy 1) and Thomas. I still call him Baby Beans, too! Poor kid may have an identity crisis! :)
