Bye Bye Pacy

Tonight Johnny was getting Tucker ready for bed. They were putting on his pajamas and Tucker was showing Johnny his new underwear that I had bought for him and made the comment that he was a big boy that wears underwear and that Jacob is a baby because he wears diapers. Johnny agreed with him and then said that babies have pacys and that he was still a baby since he sleeps with his pacy. Tucker told Johnny that he was not a baby and that he didn't need his pacy anymore. Johnny said well if you don't need it you need to get rid of it. Tucker said ok let me flush it down the potty. I am in the room listening to this foolish talk but don't really think Tucker will go thru with it. Tucker tells Johnny to do it but Johnny tells him he must do this on his own and only if he is sure about it. Tucker says I am a big boy and don't need my pacy anymore. He throws it in the potty and flushes it. I must admit that it broke my heart. I did shed a tear. As bad as I hate how dependant he became on the pacy I just wasn't ready for him to give it up. He is still my baby!!! I never imagined he would just let it go so easily. Tucker has really amazed me lately with his potty training and just how quickly he is learning new things. I love my boys so much and can't believe how fast they are growing up. I am sure Tucker will have pacy withdrawals and I will post how tonight goes and how his nap goes tomorrow. Bye Bye Pacy, May you rest in Peace.

Sweet Home Alabama





This past weekend we went home for the Bama/LSU football game. We got into town Friday afternoon and made our normal stop to Midfield to see Grandma and Papa. I don't know what it is about the dancing flowers but every little kid that goes into their house loves that thing. Tucker had a ball playing with it and Jacob loved watching it too. One of the hardest parts about living so far away is being away from family and especially my grandparents. We had fun spending time with them and look forward to seeing them again for Christmas. Saturday Johnny and I went to the game around noon and met some old friends before the game. We tailgated and walked around the quad until time for the game. Mom and Dad kept the boys for us and even thou we lost we had the best time. Sunday we went to Birmingham and spent the entire day with Jason and his family. Jason had two amazing lessons and I feel so blessed that we got to hear him speak. Sunday night after church we went and stayed with Vycki. Even though we weren't there very long it was so nice to see her and spend time with her. Tucker loves his Nana very much and really had fun with her. We had a great time seeing everyone and can't until Christmas.

Happy Halloween

The night before Halloween





Return to Cox Farms








I guess it's been about 2 weeks ago but we took Beau and Kasey to Cox Farms. The kids had a blast! Tucker was really excited to show Mary Raines the cows and the slides and the fun hay ride. We had a blast and can't wait to go back next year.

Update

Tucker is officially potty trained. It will be a week tomorrow that he has worn underwear and has not had an accident. I am really behind on blogging and when I get a few extra minutes I am going to get Halloween pics up and pics from our weekend in Bama.
