Visitors

Over the past 6 weeks...and one day :) baby Thomas has had LOTS of visitors.

Cousin Blaise flew in from Seattle for the last weekend of January and Auntie Meg flew down from Connecticut over Valentine's weekend. Blaise brought a super cute hooded-onesie and blanket, which by the way, Little Man wore on his first outing to Gruene, Texas (we forgot the camera...dangit). Blaise and I were tight growing up and were bridesmaids in each other's weddings where we both put our party pants on. So, it meant the world to have her fly down. Our grandmother (Thomas's great-grandmother) was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer the week Thomas was born, so Blaise was able to visit with her as well.

Auntie Meg's visit was good times as she got to baby-sit Thomas on his FIRST overnight stay at Grand-Mary's and Grandpa Keith's.... my dad is still trying to figure out what he wants to be called. His latest is Papu, the Greek name for grandfather. Megs also unloaded her suitcase to reveal a whole new wardrobe for the little man. The kenneth cole onesie and capricorn onesie being amongst my favorites. Sunday morning when Patrick and I came to pick the Little Man up it was quite obvious that nobody had got much sleep the night before. I guess we had somehow gotten used to averaging 3 to 4 hours of sleep a night by that point.

Thomas's visitor page in his baby book is all kinds of full, but he enjoys all the company and loves the attention. Last week Mimi came to visit and got him to smile / laugh 3 times in a row! I was almost jealous....almost. She's the baby noise expert :)
