Wow - does time ever FLY by...when you are havin' fun!

Happy 1st Month to our boy. Tucker is a true GEM of a newborn...now can you all PLEASE send me the good vibes that this continues ;) If he's anything like his big sister then I have no worries....only until he hits 3 years old, and then will he too only POOP IN HIS UNDER PANTS and NOT the toilet and DRIVE HIS MOMMY & DADDY NUTS! Oh we can only hope not.

Speaking of Stella....she really has been a true gem too. She has not hit the jealousy phase with her new baby brother and we think she will not. She offers a really good balance between wanting to hold him and kiss him (always so very gentle, she's really good like that) and not paying much attention to him - so basically she's not hoarding all over him which is nice and she's able to go on about her toddler life at home with not much interruption, so far, from her brother.

As I did with Stella - I'll be sending out a monthly email on the anniversary of Tucker's Birth Date, June 30th, throughout his Very First Year....so let em' roll.

This first Month will have a whole lot of pics here :)
