    the crazy boy deserves his own blog space 🙂  Raymond Thomas – 22 months (exactly)

    Raymond is unlike our other children. Not only does he have a different look, he also has a mischievous personality. He can be so much FUN and he can be so much WORK. I love his serious face in this pic. He loves to figure things out and do it on his own.

    Here is Ray with the BIG BOY cousins. He thinks he is just part of the crew and THEY are so good to cater to him and let him tag along. He is a tough little boy which makes for some fun.

    We finally went to the WOOD PARK. My other boys went to this park all of the time – they were spoiled. This was Raymond’s first time since he is big enough to enjoy it. He had no fear and climbed all over the park. There was no keeping him in baby land. He is adventurous and fearless.

    Ray Tom’s art work!! This kid has drawn on my walls more than… More than I thought was possible. This was the bathroom wall. He also tagged the bathroom door and floor and then I discovered a wall in the loft! I can only recall scrubbing crayon off the wall one time with all 4 older kids put together!! Of course this phase coincides with our brand new house (my angry face). Thankfully I am still well stocked with “magic Erasers” from an old roommate.

    Playing with Christian and Rose. Ray is really good at playing but he is also in the “everything is mine and I want it my way” stage. He has no concept of sharing. His brothers and sisters are used to him getting his way but “older, youngest in their family” cousins struggle with his stubborn personality.

    We love our little “Bubbas”. He is a great sleeper. Great with a spoon. He is a funny dancer. He tries to talk and actually tell me what he wants – LOVE when that happens. And he does the best “cheesy” smiles for the camera.
