A Boy and His Puppy

This is Tucker:

He is such a sweet kid (as long as he's not throwing a fit).  And a cute little guy.  I mean, does it get any better than riding circles on his bike with training wheels, giant helmet, and a cape?

Oh yeah it does, throw his puppy in there too!

This puppy, for all the headaches, is pretty funny.

The places I find her in!

CAUGHT!

And Tina and Tucker have a love/hate relationship for sure.  She is relentless with that poor boy, but he gets her back too!

But whatever he does, she's right there by his side!

The other day I was on the phone with Ben's mom and Tucker very politely (not really) told me to "pause" his poor Gramma, so he could tell me something oh so important...lol

He still says "mine" instead of "my".  For example, he would say "Where's mine ball?" or "Is that mine milk?"

He is obsessed with all sports, especially basketball, baseball or T-ball, bowling and ping-pong.

Every night at dinner, he'll take about 2 bites then ask, "Can I be full?"  Both boys ask this and every night we tell them that being full isn't something you can ask for!

I love my little Tucker guy! And Tina too, even if their fighting drives me nuts!

Some more before and afters

I tell ya, it sure is easy to get cute pictures of this kid!

It's funny for me to look back and see how long his hair was!

He really was starting to look like a girl, but all my mother eyes could see were beautiful curls that I just couldn't say good-bye to for a good long while.  

But when it started to look like I needed to go buy some of that spray to help get the tangles out of little girls' long hair, I finally came out of denial and said it was time to cut the hair already.

Unfortunately, it wasn't only traumatic for Mama:

But it wasn't anything a bath with big brothers couldn't fix!

The crazy thing is, not only did the curls disappear, but his hair is a completely different color now!

I truly had an adjustment period!

One of the little girls in Primary even asked me one day when I was holding Gray where my curly haired baby was, lol.

But his hair is still BEAUTIFUL.  As my mom says, women would pay big bucks to get his golden blonde color.

All I know is to me, I look at him and the rest of my family and there's nothing better in my entire existence.

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day!
