This one is for Bob...

Sorry for the delay in my posts....I know you've all been eagerly awaiting the next Tommy update!! If you haven't heard, things here are a changing! Ryan's company is transferring us to Nashville, so we are moving yet again (just when we got all the boxes unpacked!) But now that means that Tommy will be able to grow up near his cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and will be closer to Gram and Grandpa in Atlanta. Ryan is already splitting time between Nashville and Jax, and Tommy and I will officially be moving up to Nashville around Thanksgiving. I sent our address in the email before this update. We'll be living at the Bauchiero B & B for a few months until we get settled and until I find another job and then we'll hopefully find a house near my new school.

As for Tommy, he is doing great. He has 4 teeth now and is a busy little guy. He is certainly showing some daddy characteristics...if he wants something, he figures out a way to get it. He is very happy and vocal, quite like his parents. It is amazing to watch him discover the world and how things work. He is a constant source of amusement and we'll pretty much do anything we have to do to get him to laugh. He enjoys our ridiculous antics on a regular basis.

Last week we made it through our first ear infection which is actually pretty good considering he has been in daycare since he was 4 months old and he is ten and a half now. He was a trooper as always and we are pretty much back on track now. He started a new daycare a few weeks ago and he loves it there. He is really into playing with other kids and now he is around a lot more babies his age so it is a wonderful environment for him.

The one big disappointment in Tommy's life right now is his Tennessee Volunteers. For his first football season, he is quite disillusioned by our pathetic performance this year. Luckily he is young enough that he will soon forget how his Big Orange was a Big Disaster this year. But it builds character and we are teaching him not to be a fair weather fan.

Here are some recent pics along with a couple videos for you to enjoy. One is an example of how he loves to imitate sounds we make and another is a tribute to all the Bobs in his life, and I think there is even a Rob in there for his uncle. Enjoy, and we'll be in touch with our updates!
