Yesterday Tommy and I had a crazy day. We woke up at the crack of dawn to go strawberry picking (and returned home with 5 lbs of strawberries that didn’t taste very good, so I’m going to have to bake them all into a pie for Father’s Day), and that set Tommy’s sleep schedule back […]

We had a pretty fun weekend outside…on Saturday, we tackled our back deck area, cleaning up all of the deck chairs, table, porch swing, etc so that we can have a barbeque party out there sometime soon! Tommy got over his aversion to the water and quickly began begging to get sprayed by Daddy! Since […]
Tommy’s Favorite Activity
Posted in Children's Books, Tommy on Jun 8th, 2008
We’ve finally updated youtube with videos of Tommy! Here’s him at two of his favorite activities–making a mess and reading!
Laura’s camera captured more cute Tommy moments than mine did–so here are some of her best ones: Tommy shows off in the high chair… Tommy shows off his new way of showing love to Mommy… A more normal picture of Tommy and Mommy… Traditional couch picture… Yay! Laura’s picture of our amazing brunch turned out! […]
A crazy day so far… Tommy woke up with his fever finally gone (it just took 48 hours…) and his new tooth actually popping through (could the two be related?)… Tommy decided to skip his morning nap, and Mommy gave in after 45 minutes of crying so hearty that she couldn’t concentrate on her devotions and […]
I wasn’t the only Muller to be overjoyed by Laura’s arrival…Tommy acted like she was an old friend! Within minutes, they were thick as thieves, laughing at each other like old cronies. When we weren’t playing with Tommy, having deep talks, praying and working on Psalm 119 together, doing housework together, we just shared our lives… […]
Pictures from the weekend

We had a relaxing weekend, complete with playtime in the backyard… We went to Tilles Park to play in the fountains, but Tommy was unsure at first… Even after walking through with Daddy, he was pretty timid… The highlight of the weekend for me was finding a french bread pan like Anna’s for my thrice […]
Tommy's First French Fries
Posted in Tommy on Jun 1st, 2008
Okay, I should maybe be a little embarassed about this, but today Tommy had his first french fries! After church we got invited to go right out to lunch with the Smiths and Somervilles, so I didn’t have a chance to go home and pack Tommy a meal. We went to Fitz’s and had a […]
A Saturday Night Assessment
Posted in Tommy on May 31st, 2008
Tonight Derek and I mused on Tommy’s development compared to other babies his age. Here are our (unscientific) conclusions on how he stacks up to other 15 month olds… Ahead Eating (tonight’s dinner of a hamburger, banana, bread, and two slices of watermelon puts him ahead of many adults) Manners (well, really just saying “please” […]
A last-minute visit from Grandpa Willett has provided much enjoyment for both him and Tommy. Tommy’s favorite thing seems to be wearing Grandpa’s shoes…
