Merry Go Round

Saturday afternoon we went to the mall with grandma and grandpa.  Here we are riding the merry go round we usually get on when grandma and grandpa are here.
 
One year's difference.  Here Tuck is on the same rabbit almost exactly one year ago...


...and today (although a little less excited).
But, once I got on the horse I was actually going to ride, I got a little more enthused!
 


Easter Festivities for the Little Ones

Our church had some Easter festivities for the toddlers and preschoolers on Saturday.  There wasn't a whole lot Tuck could really get interested in (or hold his interest) but, he managed to have a good time anyway!
 
We found somebody's electric car and Tuck took off!!
 
 You'll probably notice my "shiner" I gave myself the other day by carrying too many Little People Wheelies cars and then falling on one of them.





I tried to play on this "bike" for a bit but, eventually mommy told me I needed to get off because a couple little girls were "longing" to get on it.  See them in the background?
Daddy pushed me around on this tricycle and I laughed and laughed!  I liked it when he went fast!!

Easter Bunny Train

Today we took a train ride with the Easter Bunny and went to our very first Easter Egg Hunt!!  We spent a little extra so we could sit in the dome area above the rest of the train.  It was super cool!  Tuck had the time of his life!  Especially when the Easter Bunny caught his eye!
 

 Tuck absolutely loves trains and pretty much the whole ride we heard "woo hoo" coming from his cute little mouth.  Sounding just like a train!


This is a video Daddy took to get Tuck's expression when he saw the Easter Bunny...Priceless!
 
 And here we are waiting for the egg hunt to start.  Just a few too many people here.
 "I'm not sure about all these people, Daddy".
 As you can tell, just about every kid, parent, and grandparent went in to the hunt area.  The age range for this area was 0-5, a little too wide of a range for my taste.  And I think some of the parents of the 4 and 5 year olds could've stood back a bit.  What are ya gonna do?  You can barely see little Tucker in the sea of people.
 Here's an egg.
 It's kind of hard to see from this picture but, Tuck has his first egg...
 his first egg..
 and his last.  One was good enough for Tucker!
 The town where all the festivities were held is very very small and there aren't many restaurant to choose from.  So, as soon as Tuck got his one egg, we took off to eat.  We went to a little Mexican.  Tuck wouldn't touch anything but chips and cheese dip.  Needless to say, we had to find him something else so, here he is being fed a hot dog. 
 Tuck on the go...as usual!
 a quick look into a store window.
 On the square was (another) the Easter Bunny!
Tuck was a little nervous being this close to the bunny....well, without mommy or daddy holding me or being right next to me.  The bunny gave Tuck and egg with candy in it.

 He tried to give it back to him...
 but, he told Tuck it was his to keep.
 Couldn't resist a couple of cute "walking behind" pictures.


Here's the train car we rode in.  See the dome on the roof?
 

 Zonked out pretty much as soon as we got back on the train.
 Didn't take too long and the Tuck was back up.  I asked him where his belly button is and this is what I got.
 

This is the little engine we got from the souvenir shop.  "Woo Hoo"!!

Lots o' Stuff

Just a lot of pictures and videos from the past few weeks.
Waving to our next door neighbor, Joseph.
 Making a "funny" cute face.

 Got a package from my Mammaw and Pap Pap all the way from PA!

Some new summer clothes!  Yay!  Won't be long and it'll be warm enough to wear them!
 
 Here's a new puzzle that Tuck plays with constantly!  He loves all the noises that the different vehicles make.
 If you look closely at Tuck's mouth you can see he's making siren noises.
This is an occurrence that happens many, MANY times a day.  He pulls out all the dvd's and looks at them.  Gotta love a mess!
Had to put a cute one of Joey up.  I just noticed how she's laying on the pillow that looks like her.



Happy St. Patty's Day!

Had a pretty good St. Patrick's Day weekend.  Saturday was beautiful but, Sunday wasn't quite as nice.  We still managed to get outside both days though.
 

 Got the little hat on...just for a minute, though.
 Got one on Joey too!
 It was pretty cool so, after we took some pics in my green, we put on a jacket and a ball cap (which we are surprised Tuck left on for as long as he did).
 We walked over to the playground behind the new school in our neighborhood.  Tuck loved it, of course.
Look climbing up with no help...well Daddy was really close behind me...you just can't see him in the picture.
A siren got Tuck's attention.  He sure loves fire trucks and other vehicles that have sirens.
 Tuck thought it would be funny to open a drawer and get in.  This is how I found him, smiling and all!
 
Earlier that day, we went to a Dragon Park (it got it's name from the huge mosaic dragon).  This is around it's tail.


Look at that face...I'll give you one guess at what he's doing.  Needless to say, we had to leave real quickly and find a spot to change.
