Happy 23rd Birthday Tom Tom!

Once upon a time on November 16th 1987 I had the Gerber Baby: He weighed in at 9 pounds 11 ounces. Maybe because he followed the twins who were born on 9-11? Either way, he was THE cutest, happiest, easiest baby by far. (No offense to his 6 sibs, but facts is facts). Here he is celebrating his first birthday (22 years ago) complete with drool bandanna:
When I look back, my poor children all looked like a bunch of scruffy little orphans with food crusted all over their clothing/faces.
But somehow their smiles transcended all that:
Tom still has this reaction when it comes to cake and candles:
Growing up in the shadow of his older brothers was never a problem:
Because he has always had oodles of self confidence, even when wearing tights or dressed up like Harry Potter:He cares not what people think. The boy was a stud:He also learned how to be refined on his mission to Italy: So proud to be his momma! Happy Birthday Thomas Ashby!
