Fun with GiGi!



My mom came to town this week and we have had so much fun with her! GiGi likes to take good care of us--Mama included--and it is so much fun to have someone else to hang out with us for a few days! Thanks for coming to visit us GiGi...come back soon!

Fun weekend!

Last weekend was so much fun because we had lots of house guests! My sister came into town as well as 4 of our cousins! We had a great time...eating lots of good food, talking and hanging out till the wee hours of the morning...getting pampered by Beth (she's in Esthetician school right now!)...and of course, everyone loving on Tucker! Thanks for making the drive to come visit girls...we loved spending time with you!

I didn't take enough pictures, but here are a few...



In everyone's defense, I made them take this group shot first thing in the morning...

Tucker Weekly



Tucker was 21 weeks old yesterday! It is hard to believe that he is days away from being 5 months old! I just went back and read last week's post and saw that I had written that the rice cereal "was going too well"... okay, that was supposed to say, "was NOT going too well"! Big difference! Tucker did not seem to get the whole concept and just seemed disinterested in the food in general. We tried a few different ways for a week and decided to put it away and try again in a week or so. We'll let you know how it goes after Round 2 this weekend!

Other than that, Tucker has been:

--drooling a ton and putting everything in his mouth--pretty sure he's teething to some degree even though I can't actually see any teeth
--making this new sound with his lips when he puts them together (you'll have to use your imagination!)
--officially having some "separation anxiety"...Yes, I know it's early... But, for the last few weeks he consistently gets fussy when anyone holds him besides me and then immediately stops as soon as I pick him back up! Don't get me wrong, I'm glad he loves his mama, but, we gotta work on that! Thank you to my friends and family who have endured some screaming!
--holding his bottle with both hands--Brad still gives him a bottle every night and it is so cute how he grabs on to the bottle as soon as it gets in his mouth--if it weren't so heavy, I'm sure he could hold it!
--making a lot of sounds--you can tell he loves to hear his own voice and he is no longer a quiet little one in our house!

FREE MOVIES!

Here's the deal... If you haven't already been introduced to a "Red Box" near you, it is literally a red box that you can rent movies out of for $1 (around here they are usually found in grocery stores)! This is exciting, of course, in these times of cutting costs at every corner! So, they are offering an even better deal that I had to pass along! For the month of March, on Wednesdays, you can visit the RedBlog to get a "free movie code" so that you can go get a FREE MOVIE at any red box--every Wednesday in March!

This Tuesday, Australia is out on DVD so that's what I'll be getting on Wednesday! Happy March movie watching!

Snowy Day!

It's hard to believe it's March 1st and we have 5 inches of snow on the ground! It snowed throughout the night and we woke up this morning to a Winter Wonderland! My sister was in town this weekend, so she got to enjoy the snowy weather with us and Tucker got to see snow for the 3rd time this year--WOW! It's always nice to have a snow day that keeps you stuck in the house, in front of the fire, and hanging out with the fam... enjoy the pictures!

PS...I didn't think about how I was using my camera lens that "blurs" the background...so it's tough to see the snow in the background!





mmmmmm.....
