I feed Gucker!

Yesterday I asked Jackson to scoot over on the chair so I could sit down and feed Tucker. Jackson's reply was, "I fee Gucker!" I figured ok, let's see, so I said, "Sure!" I layed Tucker down on his lap, Jackson smiled and proceeded to lift up his shirt. After about 10 seconds of sitting there with Tucker on his lap, holding his shirt up, he smiled again and said, "Momma feed Gucker."

Cuteness! One to share with them when they are teenagers and really embarass them! :)

Oh yeah....we're potty training Jackson, as of Christmas Eve. Lots of fun, gross, stories.....I will save them from print as to save you from vomitting :) I'll be sure to post a pic of Jackson in his big boy underware once he makes it out of the cotton training pants.

Merry Christmas Everyone

Wish we could be with family today, but I am excited to start some traditions of our own on Christmas as well. So we did presents this morning. Jackson was in his cotton training pants in all the pics because we are on day 2 of potty training....had to tackle that project when Daddy was going to be home for a few days. He did have cute pajamas on that matched Tucker, but had to get on the potty right away. This afternoon we are going to go to a movie at Movie Tavern, Marley and Me, and hope that Jackson and Tucker both make it through it. Should be exciting nursing Tucker and taking 20 minute potty breaks with Jackson....we'll definitely have to get it on Netflix when it comes out so we can see the entire movie.

Sorry there are not more pics, but Tucker was nursing and Todd was helping with presents, so we were caught up in the moment.

Love you all and wish you a very Merry Christmas and Happy and Healthy New Year!

Random cuteness...sorry no pics yet

Ok, so I wanted to post some random cute moments from the past week or so, before I forget. I will add the pictures as soon as I get a free minute to download them from the camera.

Working in reverse order.

We got the Christmas tree and put it up this evening. We are skimping on the decorations this year since we got a late start and I pretty much don't have time for all the big stuff. So I decided Christmas tree, stockings, Christmas lamp outside and of course.....Frosty the Snowman. It was great to see Jackson get excited to see it again, I think he remembers it from last year. BTW, thanks to Grandpa for that initial investment 3 years ago, well worth it! I think Jackson is actually starting to understand that Christmas is coming.

Next, Jackson has started singing Baa Baa Black Sheep all by himself. It is precious! I have been trying to catch it on film, but no luck yet. Today I asked him to sing it to Tucker when he was fussing and I was finishing getting dressed. Tucker loved it, smiled, and started to coo right along. Tear-jerker!

I also have to say that Jackson has been the best Stroller Strides kiddo since we got back after Tucker was born. I know that he appreciates it more now that we have been away. He loves to sing along, count with us, and of course looks forward to playing outside of the stroller when we are done.

I think that sums it up...keep an eye out for pics! :)
