First Christmas - 2009

*Thomas enjoyed his first Christmas at home in Michigan with Mommy and Daddy. Mild weather enabled the Clark family (Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle Josh, Uncle Bryce, and soon-to-be Aunt Bethany) to also join Thomas for Christmas weekend. Thomas must have been a good boy during his 7 months in 2009, because he received a ton of presents, both from Santa and from his family.

*Thomas also enjoyed a few days before Christmas with his Great Grandma Thomas over in Richmond, OH. He and Mommy and Grandma Clark rode over early last week and spent a few days with the Thomas family (picture is below under the "Dec 22" posting). Great Grandma Thomas loves holding and talking with Thomas on his visits.

*Along with presents for Christmas, Thomas is also receiving another traditional Christmas gift...his two front teeth. His right/top front tooth has broken through (see picture below), and his left/top front tooth is on its way out. Thomas has been dealing with some discomfort as he gets his new teeth in, but it wasn't enough to ruin his Christmas. Thomas, despite his oral troubles, is constantly laughing, smiling, and playing throughout the day!!

Merry Christmas From The Harps!
