Weekend at the Pettit's

This first picture was two days ago and it is not at the PEttit's! I just could resist sharing it! Tommy has a thing for driving our neighbor Mark's car. His son Josh (standing behind Tommy) put the Hooter's hat on him and I couldn't resist this shot. It made me laugh! Okay, we are at the Pettit's in this next group. There is no semblance of order to these pictures. Sorry. Below is beautiful Declan James. This was my favorite picture out of the whole weekend. I know this is Tommy's page but since Declan is his buddy he should go up too!
Here are all of the crazy's at the baptism. It was short, sweet and to the point, just how we like it! Aunt Nan or as Tommy refers to her MY MOMMY kept close eye on Tommy while we stood close to the ceremonies.
Over giving Aunt Katie kisses.
Tommy took to wearing everyone's shoes but his own. Below he is wearing Wonky's shoes, Tommy calls Jim "Wonky!"


Aunt Nan had bought this teepee for Declan at an arts festival in Florida and she brought it out for Tommy to play with. He loved it so much she couldn't resist passing it on to him. Thanks Aunt Nan!

Time to chill with Aunt Dirty.

Mothers Day weekend in State College, PA

This weekend we were off road tripping to State College for Mother's Day weekend. Tommy was so excited to see his cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents. He stayed very busy the whole time and didn't do much sleeping as he was too worried that he might miss something in the process. He played out in the yard with his Gigi roaming through the gardens and playing soccer. He really had a great time.

I pointed out some ants to him and then he decided to follow it around for as long as he could. Just being a little boy.


He lead Gigi through her gardens and they marched along the stepping stones.

We then went to pick up his Uncle John Heim cousins and we went to Sunset park. I decided to nab this moment before they ran!!!


Tommy wanted to do everything the big kids were doing. Although he needed a little assistance he still had fun!

After the park we all went to meet the men at dinner. They had a big afternoon of golf. It was the John Daily Mothers Day Invitational, chock full of drinking and mullets. This is the first of the Decathalon events that will go on over the summer, next is tricycle jousting. Below Tommy sports one of the JDMDI mullets.
Saturday was a barbeque out on John's farm. We surpised Gigi with a family portrait complements of Heidi Lynne photography. I think she was pretty excited. The kids had a blast playing around the yard and in Uncle John's "Heartbreak Island," complete with a beach,pool and tiki bar!


Thank you Aunt Robin for your fine photography skills. THis is a rare photo in our household.



Uncle John is leaving for bike week today so his bikes were out getting ready to load up on the trailer. Tommy took the opportunity to climb on and check out the equipment. He said that it wasn't working so Uncle John turned it on for him and revved the engine. Tommy wasn't a huge fan of that!

Walker wanted to get in on the action too!
The day was winding down and Tommy obviously needed some relaxation time. Walker was still ready to play!

Okay enough rest, what's next momma!
All in all we had a great weekend in State College. There are plenty more pictures but I am done!!!

Just cuz

Sunday was an uber lazy day for all. Bryan, Lori and Nick Gates came in to town for a fun Saturday evening and the parents had too much fun!!! The boy however enjoyed each others company. Tommy practiced his pilates "teaser" as Nick ate some pages of a Thomas the train book. Tommy is still figuring out the baby but he seems to do well with him:)
Just being a cheeser. At least I could actually get him to look at the camera.

I got my Baseball

Tommy got a T-Ball set the other day so when Daddy got home we decided to set it up and give him some lessons. He was more interested in hitting it on the top of the ball with one hand than he was swinging from the side with two. I think we have to just keep trying with this one!!! Getting by with a little help from his dad.
