Tucker Monthly

40 months old...

Tucker seems so much older these days. Independent describes him well and when he's not pushing our buttons with his 3 1/2 year old attitude, he's pretty pleasant to be around :)

This month Uncle Andy came to visit while he was on a work trip. He brought along the fun treat of stick on mustaches... Tucker and his not-so-sure-at-first personality eventually warmed up to the silliness :)

We celebrated Valentine's this month and Hadley and I got to join Tucker for his school party. It's always entertaining to keep Hadley wrangled in that environment :) It was fun to watch Tucker interact with his little friends and do his Valentine's Day dance.

One of the sweetest things about this age is watching your child develop friendships. It's such a far cry from those 2 year old days when they never actually interact with their playdate. Tucker seriously LOVES his friends and prays for every child in his class, by name, every night. He also has some other buddies too, like his friend Kit (below). Kit came to have dinner with us one night and although I think she was a little disappointed in the lack of princess dress-up options around here, she seemed to enjoy being a "worker girl". :)

This month, we also celebrated Gigi's birthday with a trip to Greenville. Tucker loves his Gigi and as always, the help is amazing.

Another highlight of the Greenville trip was spending time with Uncle Anthony, Aunt Lindsey, and baby Scarlett. Tucker loves Anthony... or at least his John Deere lawn mower anyway :) I love this picture of the two of them.

Tucker is napping less and less--typically just 2 or 3 days out of the week. We're trying to figure out how and when to fully transition into room time without a nap. This mama is sad. I'll enjoy the last nap days as long as I can!

We love you Tucker boy!
