He's here, he's there, he's EVERYWHERE!!!

Oh, that Tucker-bear. He's so super busy! When I have both the boys here at the house they are four times the busy, then when I have just one. Here I go comparing again, but, when Carter was one we could put him down and he'd occupy himself for at least an hour. He watched Noggin, or a movie, not Tucker. No way, he's having no part of what would help out around here. You know what I'm talking about, sometimes you just need to have thirty minutes to cook, fold some clothes, go to the bathroom for pete's sake. Nope, shadow boy is hot on your trail!

He climbs, Carter didn't. He hides, Carter didn't. He screams, Carter didn't. He naps wonderfully, Carter didn't! I know they aren't the same kid, but could they at least act as if they were related???  Tucker will not sit still for anything. His new favorite thing to do is climb on top of things, under things, through things, doesn't matter to him, he just climbs! He's made his way onto the fireplace, under the kitchen table, he's almost conquered the couch. He climbs into the tub if you let him. He's a monkey. Maybe I should call him Tucker-monkey?!

I was washing dishes the other day and he was quiet. I could hear him babbling, but he was calm. So, no screaming means do what you can while you have a minute! Well, when I came around the bar I heard him babbling and grunting. I couldn't find him. Then, I did... UNDER THE TABLE! We have a large table. It seats 8 people. He had wiggled his way through the chair legs and was standing under the table. So now when we lose him that's the first place we look.  (((Please, don't think badly of me for losing him in our house. It just happens!))) Last Friday he tripped over my feet and hit the a/c return. He had a perfect, round impression of the screw on his forehead for two days! If you look close you can see it in one of the pictures.

He's so spunky. He's his father made over to the naked eye but when you look into the soul of that little redhead, you see me. You see my sassy, my way or no way attitude, but then he gives you that smile that just shines to the world. He's pretty cool for a baby. I think I'll keep him!!! :)
