Trying to walk

He wants to do it. Look at those arms waving :)

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

We have had a great holiday season this year. Of course, it was Tucker's first Christmas and he caught on to unwrapping presents pretty quickly. Not that he had many to open or anything... I was able to go home to Indiana the week before Christmas for my sister Alicia's wedding. It was beautiful and everyone had a wonderful time. We celebrated Christmas a little early with family there and then made our way back "home" to Texas. I was off on Christmas day, so we got up, opened a few presents and had some breakfast. We were lazy all day and Adam deep-fried a turkey and I made all the fixings. It was a nice change staying in our house all day, compared to running to 3-4 different places on Christmas day.


Tucker is always on the move these days. He is crawling all over the place, standing up to things and "cruising" along the couch, table, chairs, etc. He has taken a step or two on his own. Any day now... His favorite things to get into are Bentley's food and water bowl, the fireplace and the TV stand. We're always on our toes these days :)


Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

On the move

Tucker has been using his walker for a few months now, but he has recently started to chase us around the house at super speed. Here is a little video, he is actually being a little timid due to the camera.

Happy Halloween

We celebrated Halloween a little early this year. Since we were in Indiana earlier this month, we thought Tucker should trick or treat the grandparents. Here he is in his skunk costume.














We enjoyed our trip home since we were able to stay over a week. We drove this time and Tucker did great. I think it helped that we drove overnight :)

We have another trip planned for Thanksgiving. Hope to see everyone then!

Tucker's new trick

My baby boy is 6 months old already. Time flies. We had his checkup this morning and he seems to be right on track with everything. He weighs 20 lbs 6 1/2 oz and is 26 1/2 in long. He is sitting up on his own and rolling, twisting, trying to climb/attach to everything. He has started babbling a lot more and several times made the "dada" sound. Here is his latest trick with the boppy.

Tooth #2

OK, I promise I won't blog for EVERY tooth that Tucker gets, but the first couple are exciting!! So this morning #2 broke through the gums. He is being pretty tough considering. Still sleeping for 11-12 hours at night :) I'm ecstatic and am afraid that it will suddenly end if I keep telling people about it. He weighs in at 19 lbs now, look out! He has started clicking his tongue and blowing raspberries. Such a sweetie!

5 months old and first tooth


My big boy has his first tooth! Thank goodness he is feeling a little better. Those were some grumpy days... As I type he is scooting himself around the room on his back. Yep, his back. He is flailing his arms and legs like he is trying to fly and scooting himself. He is actually sounding out of breath. Hilarious! And so darn cute :) He has been sleeping through the night for the past 5 nights now. Let's hope he keeps it up. We are definitely enjoying Adam being home and hope to get to the beach next week. Happy Labor Day weekend!!
