It's all in the details....





I just couldn't resist these photos of Thomas the other day. Lately, I am all about the details. Perhaps it's because I have learned through my own boys, just how quickly time flies. Therefore, I try to take pictures of him, when his mom, Mary, is working!!! I do have a lot of fun, even though he won't take a nap to save my life these days!!!
Oh God, please sprinkle some nap dust our way. He is a good boy but he would be better if he took a nap. My house is starting to feel the pain - I need to give it some TLC (a good cleaning!!!) Oh and anyone who is reading, please pray for a nap too, I can use all the prayers I can take.
Though I realize there are more important things for which to pray.

Great images; those eyes! I know about the naps...usually both boys sleep at the same time over lapping a bit but today The Babe has four teeth coming in...I was praying for some shut too:)

No nap? Not a problem, just put a dust rag in his little hand! :o)

What a cutie he is, and such beautiful blue eyes! His outfit is adorable (and very well put together I might add!)

What a cutie! And - a cute outfit too!

Yup, Amy JEAN Kelly, for now it seems that Thomas-doing-trouble is more important than Thomas-taking-a-nap :)!

I just love the way Mary dresses that kid--he could be the Poster Child for L. L. Bean--SO CUTE! In the second picture, he's got that look on his face like he just KNOWS he's stylin'!!! Even with all of his awesome cuteness, though, he still needs a nap and Auntie Amy needs a break--so honorary Auntie Kim will be praying to The Nap Gods...

And I also love the details, especially when the details are Thomas-sized.

Oh, and before I go...I'll be seein' ya over at Lisa's house at 3:00 Sunday afternoon...BWAHAHAHAHA!

Mary said...

I love these pictures! I'm so glad you got some of him dressed in this outfit because I wasn't able to. I am having so much fun dressing him lately :)

Kristi @ Mi Vida Ocupada said...

Thomas is darling! I am so excited to have a nephew now too...Bennett is the first!

girlymom said...

Maybe when spring is here and he can let loose outside...that will wear him out and right back into a nap! There is always wishful thinking!

Angie @ KEEP BELIEVING said...

Wow! Great shots!!

If he won't nap, will he lay in a crib/playpen for at least an hour with some toys while you close the door and walk away for some peace and quiet (aka housecleaning and dinner preparation) time? He looks WAAYY too young to not nap. Yikes!

Beautiful pictures. Truly. The sunlight on his bottom is precious.

No naps are painful, so yes, I'm-a-praying.

Gorgeous pictures! I was so sad when my kids gave up their nap...that meant I had to give up my nap too!

These pictures are so great! Mary, they were taken at my house! We are so lucky to get to see him while you are working!!!!
Maybe we could try him napping over here. Matt used to nap here when Amy couldn't get him to nap at home. I remember calling Donald at work and saying, "I did it!" That was, I got Charlie, Abby and Matt all to nap at the same time! Those were the days. Imaging if those three still napped too. Oh well, I guess there is always velcro or duct tape! LOL!

Life As I Know It said...

Hoping for a good nap for you!

My almost 3 year old just gave up naps so instead I do quiet (tv) time for an hour. Mostly for my sanity ;)

Denise H. said...

Oh my Gosh! I love those pics. I think that the one of his behind is my Fav!

Mary Alice said...

Beautiful photos....and I don't think God really judges about whose prayers are more needed. That's just a human thing - in my opinion.

Alex Elliot said...

Only if you pray for my kid to STOP THE COLD-INDUCED BARFING! I CAN'T CLEAN UP MORE BABY BARF! SIX DAYS OF BARF IS ENOUGH!!!
