1st BBQ at the Cook's new pad

The Cooks' new house has an amazing yard/patio/fire pit/playset that's great for big BBQ's. We had our first, of many, this week. Tucker loves the swings and all the other kids to play with. Zaiden, Kathryn, Augie, and Becket. His shirt says "My Daada is #1", Kelly tried to argue that he was #2 but Tucker disagreed! Thanks Kel for the 2 great pics (1st and last)!








What Grocery Shopping Looks Like

When gas is $4 a gallon! There's actually more room in the trailer than it looks, he's just using the bags as pillows while he's sleeping. Good thing he's little!

Faux-Hawk

After our bath we were playing and put pants on Tucker's head as a hat. Since his hair was still a little wet, it styled it in a faux-hawk. He's so trendy!

Babysitter





Mommy and Daddy got to go out for their first date since Tucker's been born. Our amazing friends Christine, Rob and Kathryn came over to play while Mommy and Daddy went to see "The Happening". He had a great time and only got hungry 10 mins before we got home. Mommy missed him lots but was glad to spend some alone time with Daddy.

Park Days: Bubbles

The Greeley Mother's Group meets at a different park each week with a different theme. This week was bubbles, which Tucker loves! His friends Kathryn and Marsella both came to play too.






He LOVES to swing!


Play Group

Here we are at our amazing play group. We have the best of friends to hang out with once a week. Kelly and her boys, Augie and Becket, started it but now they are big and bored with little kids so they don't come much! Then we have Christine and Kathryn, Shannon and Marsella, Amy (and Eric this week) and Calvin, Karen and Zaiden, Rachel and Kaylee.




Scooting All Over

Tucker has been scooting everywhere. He still doesn't get up on his hands and knees but he's very good at it. Here he got under the chair and between it and the pack and play. He also tries to scoot under the computer desk while I blog! He is very fast at getting the dog toys and eats at least one a day! He loves being mobile. Daddy has to help me get a video up, I don't know how!



ZZZZZZ

He's a sleeping beauty!

TGIFridays and Swimming

We went out to eat at TGIFridays and then swimming at the therapy pool. Tucker tried to eat a green bean but the skin was to hard to dissolve with his gums.
He really loves swimming now. He splashes and kicks. He doesn't close his eyes when he splashes and ends up with sore red eyes, but he enjoys it!

Work Week at NYR

The Spences came out to the NYR campgrounds for work week and we went down to see them. Here we are by the pond.
And checking out the family of geese.

Tucker seeing Grandpa and Uncle Duane for the first time since Christmas. He's a LOT different.

They got a lot of work done, not while we were there! We're excited to take Tucker to his first NYR next month.

Daddy's takin' us to the zoo tomorrow, and we can stay all day!


Or at least 7 hours! We finally got to take Tucker to the zoo on Sunday. It was a beautiful day and we had so much fun.






We carried him for a while, then tried out our backpack carrier. That was a lot easier.


The animals through the glass were a lot closer so he could see them better. He liked anything that was moving.






His favorite place to ride, Daddy's shoulders.





After lunch we rode the train around.










"Mom, those monkeys are looking at me!"









His favorite part was petting the goats. He loves to pet Leia and he knew how to be nice and gentle.











He even got to touch a turtle.
Then he fell asleep, through the hippo demonstration.
