rainbows and rain

Last week we stopped at the Red House to check out goats and along came a beautiful full rainbow. Doug made us go out into the rain for pictures. Tuck kept saying, "raining" the whole time and trying to hide. I must admit it was really gorgeous. Sometimes I forget how gorgeous it is here.



Shoving a piece of bread in his mouth.



Just look at that grin.



And even though this is not my best shot you can actually see Doug's face :)






It was a really fun night. I feel so lucky to have an awesome husband and a cutie pie son. I'm glad my family can be together forever.

toy catalogs

Tucker loves these toy catalogs we started getting. He especially loves a little Toys "R" Us one that came. It has those big jeeps for kids to ride in, Lightning McQueen in there somewhere, Elmo and bikes, and skateboards and pools, etc. He asks to read that for a bedtime story, and then he wants to sleep with it. And a few times he has. We checked on him and his face was laying on it.

Kind of hard to tell in this picture, but you can see he is pretty happy about looking at it. He found a truck in this one.



Oh, and there is a blurry picture of Doug's new haircut. Isn't he handsome?

nursery

Tuck loves going to nursery on Sunday. Doug always takes him in because I have to start our Primary class, a lovely bunch of Valiant 10's, and he always does well. He loves the ladies in there, he loves the toys, the coloring, and the snacks. They get full blown meals in this nursery class. Lately they've been giving him special treats to bring home when it's done. Two weeks ago it was a pudding cup, last week a cupcake. We started making him wait until we got home into his chair because it's too messy otherwise, and it's perfect. He runs to the car, jumps into his car seat and runs up the stairs to get home into his chair. No fighting, no trying to push his stuff on the lawn, no lollygagging. Yay for nursery.

sleepy face

this was tuck this morning at 7:30, sleeping late, probably still exhausted from our exhausting weekend and late nights. i love his puffy face in the morning.

lately

This is what I feel like doing lately. I have just been so tired. It also seems like the baby in there has come alive lately too. I thought/was hoping I was going to have real lazy one in there that didn't like to move. I might be wrong.





And this is what you will do if you are ever outside our house with Tucker. Watch him push things with wheels around and make sure he doesn't go into the street. I really can't wait to have a fence. He is pretty much obsessed with pushing things.







And this was before we put him down. When you try to go inside after he's gotten a taste of pushing things around, he is definitely not interested in going inside.



It looks a little bit more like this, but not nearly as calm.



And some of you might have noticed that Doug cut his hair! I only have pictures of the process and nothing of after, so stay tuned for his handsome face that you can actually see on here soon.



Really sad to see that ponytail go. Not. Well, he was. I think he even might have it saved somewhere...





Oh, and we, as in he, with Nat's help, have been putting in a lawn up at the house. It is starting to look like something finally.

Line 'em up

I love when I come out after Tuck has been playing quietly and I find that he has made a parking lot out of his cars. I was trying to take a picture of them when he wasn't in it, but he saw me with the camera and came over in front of his cars, so proud of them, to say cheese. I love how he stacked all the train pieces on the right and put something in the it.

And here's the picture that I forgot to post along!

few more

These are the last of our pictures from AZ. Kind of random again, but this is going to be a book someday so I want them in there.

Just woke up sleepy swollen face.



Dinner at Sauce. And yes, I'm definitely looking pregnant these days. Love that I'm in the front.
