"Mischief baby" is Peter's nickname for Thomas, and it fits. He's about as mischievous as a toddler can be, plus he's so darn cute that it's easy to let him get away with so much more than his brother and sister at this age.
Last week Aunt Jen asked us if it was hard to tell him no, given how cute he is. Oh, oh yes. It also helps that he's generally happy. All in the name of mischief.
This weekend, at the John Heinz Preserve, a kind older woman oohed-and-ahhed over Thomas's cute blue eyes and bouncy blond curls. And, as Thomas ran ahead of us, she commented: "but you better be careful! someone is going to steal that baby."
You can imagine my complete heart-stopping terror when I lost him for about ten seconds later that day. He's run out to another room to see the giant blue heron.
