Mama, bah (ball), Tuh (Tucker), Papa, Bapa, gator, Dada, bye, hi
After Mama, her favorite word is definitely EH (GIVE ME RIGHT NOW!!) and she uses it VERY frequently!
She gives the BEST little baby kisses ever!

Tucker is probably the most adorable three year old ever (yeah, I know, I'm biased.) But he can ALWAYS make me smile!
Today on they way to see some friends, he said "Mommy, you make me so happy!"
I got 4 Dr. Seuss books out to read to him a few nights ago. I read him the first three then we got to The Grinch. He asked if he could read it to me instead. It went like this (in an angry growling voice) "I hate Christmas! I hate trees and presents! I'm going to take your trees! I'm going to take your presents! I hate people and Christmas! I'm throwing these presents off a mountain down down down! I'm going to be nice now! I bought you a present! The end!" I laughed SO hard.
Half the time when he talks to Rylie, he uses the most adorable little baby voice.
He gets VERY stressed out when he doesn't get to kiss Rylie goodnight for naps and bedtime.
He calls Ava (a friend's precious little girl) "my sweetheart" and is always trying to help her. He will hold her hand and lead her and watch her steps carefully so that she doesn't trip. Its adorable.
His name is "Tutter."
The poor little guy has been having nightmares. He has never watched a show on bears that he know of at all, but he is suddenly absolutely terrified of bears. When I question him about it, he gets very stressed out. "BAD BAD BAD dream Mommy. I saw a bear out the window at Bapa's house. And it was white. And it was TALL TALL TALL and standing up and it held its hand up like this (holds his hands up near his face in claws) and it said ROOOOAAARRR." He keeps having this dream over and over. He made Bapa (my mom) show him every tree in their yard and look out of every window in their house looking for bears. We told him Bud (my brother) caught all the bears and took them far, far away to the zoo. He trusts us and repeats it a thousand times and tells everyone Bud took the bears and he is safe now. Then nighttime comes and he is a mess. He snuggles up to Zeke and wants to sleep with us every night now. We get him asleep in his bed and feeling safe and confident that all bears are gone for good. Then1-2 am comes and there's Tucker crying about the bears. Poor thing.
Tucker knows how to get to Bapa's house, Walmart, Granny/Judy's, Daddy's work and Ava's new house. He will give me directions the whole time. He points out everyone else's houses that we have ever visited along the way and all the stores he would like to visit. Turn left here, turn right there, etc..
He loves "chalkolate mulk" and poptarts for breakfast every day.
I am in love with the ways he says his Rs.
When he gets hurt, he definitely takes after his mama. He rarely cries over a booboo and if he is really hurt, he will say "just leave me alone!"
"Just give me a second" I hear this phrase constantly when he wants to play longer.
Every night, no matter if I only read one or if I read fifteen, he always begs for just one more book.
McDonalds is the "french fry house."
When he makes Ry laugh, he always tells me "I make hers so happy!"
I'm so in love with the verbal phase that he is in. So vocal and yet still learning the ropes. I love it. He can always make me smile and laugh with what he says. He is so sweet and polite (usually).
And so proud of every little new word and thing that Rylie learns.
