Thug 4 Life, Yo!

Tommy went through a brief thug phase a week or two ago and absolutely insisted on wearing that hat every chance he got. As you can see in the picture, it makes him look quite rough and tough (and only mildly goofy with the ear sticking out sideways). In the end, though, he decided that the thug life really wasn't for him, because he's such a good and kind and caring boy at heart. That and the hat was actually a size or two too small and apparently caused him pain. That might have had something to do with it too, I suppose.


Here you can see Tommy humouring his grandpa by pretending to be amused by the story he's reading. As I'm sure you can tell, Tommy wasn't actually having any fun at all. No siree. It was practically torture.


Here's one from my aunt & uncle's 50th wedding anniversary. It's actually a pretty bad picture of Tommy, but it's such a good picture of Mom & the girls that I figured I'd post it up anyway. D'ya think Mom enjoys spending time with the grandkids?
