The Joy in our Life

I have attached a video of Nathan and Rich playing with the tractors. It is so much fun to watch Rich and Nathan play together. He is such a joy in our life and we love him more and more each day. We have been so busy lately doing crafts, talking in church (so glad that is over) getting ready for Thanksgiving and the Tomlinson Christmas Party. Rich just installed an Air Filtration System in his pick-up. After he was done we went for a little drive and it was awesome. We leave next Wednesday for Idaho we are so excited about seeing family but not the long car ride. We can't complain though it is so much cheaper than flying for 6 1/2 hours from Maui to Salt Lake and then driving 4 hours up to Idaho. Nathan is growing so much and he is so much fun. He has such an amazing personality and he makes us laugh so hard. So I have a cute little story about him. I was at my friend Melissa's house the other day working on a craft. I left Nathan inside playing while I went out side to sand my project, it took me about a hour or so. When I got back in Nathan saw me and was so excited. He kept kissing me for 15 minutes, now his kisses include the tongue and slobber so I was a little water logged when he was done. It just melted my heart knowing that he missed me so much. I will post pictures of my crafts and sewing projects soon, I having so much fun doing them. Love to everyone!

Mom is SORRY!

So this weekend has been crazy. I made Rich and Nathan both sick, yes I made them. First I made dinner Saturday night, Broccoli and cheese soup. Yum I thought but it made Rich sick, he finally felt better Sunday night. Then Sunday night I accident left a bottle out for longer than 2 hours. ( for everyone that doesn't know formula can not be left out longer than 2 hours after being made). Well I took a nap while Nathan was. Nathan woke up screaming so Rich fed him the bottle that I left out and another one. Nathan went back to sleep I woke up and then Nathan did. He seemed fine he ate his dinner which was carrots and played. Then he was drinking his bottle before he was about to go to sleep and he sat up and threw up. All over, Rich was dry heaving and I was covered in puke. We then realized that I left the wrong bottle out for Rich. Yes, mom is sorry to her boys. they both are fine now and we wont be having broccoli or sour milk for a long, long, long time.

Although we do have some good news, Nathan is crawling now and into everything. Yes we "Love It" as Wheezy would say.

Happy Halloween!!

On Halloween day we had a Fall Festival at the church for the kids that are not in school. Here is a picture of all the kids that came. There is Nathan in his Superman costume.Yes Nathan was Superman imagine that. He was having so much fun playing with my cups that I was using for the game at my station.Here is Nathan with his friend Emma, she adores him. Every time she sees us she gets so happy. As you can see he is sharing the cups being used the the game.They also had a pinata for all the kids. Nathan was so excited when he saw so we gave him a try, he loved it. Okay so we were soup and rolls last night so Nathan was joining us and eating rolls himself; off my leg. Yes, there were more on the floor then in his mouth but he was happy so that is all that matters. Rich went to take a picture of him eating and as soon as Nathan saw the camera he gave us a smile. Then every time we would say "Smile" he would stop what he was doing and give us a grin. Here is another smile for the camera moment. We love him so much and can't believe how big he is. He is crawling now and is into everything. We love it but it does keep us on our toes.
