Where did my Nanner go???

Tucker has been absolutely AMAZING this past week. Yes, he still has his minor meltdowns but he is almost like a different child. He spent last week with his Gigi watching him and I joke with her that I think she hypnotized him!! Maybe it was the "suga" she gave him or the "Mack" truck he loves so much??? I just think it was the love he has for her. Man, HE LOVES HIS GIGI!! Since she went back to NJ, he has talked about her all the time. Either way, I am glad she somehow transformed him into less of a "Nanner."

He is all about anything "CARS" and wearing anything with Cars on it. Lightening McQueen is his idol! Tuck recently got a small, indoor trampoline to bounce on and he can o it for 15 minutes straight. I am proud of how his speech is developing and he can pretty much say any word and is talking in mostly complete sentences. Travis and I are going to a wedding this weekend on the Eastern Shore so he will get to have some quailty time with his "Man-nuts" (aka Aunt Amanda). Hilarious nickname, huh???

Harper continues to be such a little angel. She has her 2 bottom teeth completely in by now but the drooling continues! It is so frustrating putting her in cute clothes and covering them with ugly bibs. I am sooooo ready for the drooling to start. She is going to take off and crawl any minute now. Every day she seems to gain more confidence and seems to get a real want to steal Tucker's toys! Harper is going to spend this Saturday night with her Aunt Miranda while we are at the wedding. They are both excited to have some girl time!!

Nanner (x2) Update!




With summer vacation, I have been obviously sooooo bad about keeping up an updating on my little Nanner and his gorgeous little sister. Being a "summer" stay-at-home mommy actually gives me less free time to blog then working full time! Truth be told, I would rather use naptime to nap myself! I know you have all been waiting in complete suspense to hear what they have been up to. I am more trying to update so Tuck and Harper can look back on this in 15 years and see what I had missed. So here it goes...

Harper- She is almost 8 months old now! Wow...time flies when they are this little and when you are having fun. And having fun, she is! She is the cutest little girl and has such a sweet and funny disposition. She is sitting up all by herself, grabbing for all her big brother's toys and always just so happy. People say she is starting to look like my side of the family more and more. Particularly like her Aunt Amanda (who recently moved to Harrisonburg to be near us)! She is on the verge of crawling and pulling up but just rolling around to get what she wants now. Her favorite toys include...basically anything that belongs to Tucker. It is going to be so interesting when she can actually move and get her hands on all his stuff. Mommy is in for a lot of fighting in the future!

Tucker- The "terrible" 2's are definately here! My little guy knows what he wants and when he wants it. He is talking lots and his vocabulary is amazing but there is still a bit of a communication gap and lots of room for frustrations. Overall, he is amazing and so much fun to hang out with. He has gone to his first High School football game with Daddy and was in awe of the lights, the band and the popcorn. Gigi just stayed with us for a week and they had so much time to bond. He is absolutely IN LOVE with his Gigi. ( :
