So Tucker's new favorite show is "Franklin". Its on the Noggin channel, and also on Comcast OnDemand...so he can watch it anytime, day or night (and I can get something done!). Well one episode Franklin was remembering what he had learned from a magician on a previous episode, that in a paticular magic trick, "The coins don't really disappear. They just seem to disappear." Well Tucker found a couple of coins in his drawer in his room, and came out and had them in his fists telling me this. I thought it was so cute, and since I now have a blog...thought I'd videotape it and share it.

Tucker's Swimming Lessons
Tucker had private swimming lessons at our friend's pool this summer. At first it was a bit traumatizing...for me. It was a very aggressive teaching method, in which they make babies from about 1 year up, 'pool safe'. He started off very politely asking his teacher, "Maybe I see my mom?" and when she didn't respond to that it was, "Maybe I see my mom, really quick?" and then when he didn't get what he wanted then he just cried and cried. He did that for the first few weeks of lessons, but then one day he suddenly changed and was excited to go to swimming lessons, and stopped fighting it when she was getting him to float. Now he floats like a champ and jumps in the pool and just loves it. Note: all pictures and videos were taken at the last two classes, up until then I wasn't sure it was really something I wanted to remember. :)
Tucker's nap...
I was getting Tucker up from his nap, and I had Nora Jane in my arms, so I thought I'd stick her in his bed...they both loved it, so I grabbed the camera.
Tucker's 2nd Birthday
Celebrating with the Fam...and uncle Schovaers, wouldn't be a party with out him! :)
Tucker insisted on Elmo cupcakes...even though he has never watched a full episode of Sesame Street, yet is addicted to Shrek, Super Why, Curious George, Clifford and DragonTales. Go figure!
Nora Jane is Born
I had just come back from the pharmacy picking up Daniel's migraine medication, when my water broke, at home (around 2:30 on Wednesday April 9th). So Daniel's Mom took me to the hospital, while Daniel stayed home to sleep off his migraine. As my labors drag on for days, him missing the first few hours wasn't a big deal. 19 hours later, sweet Nora Jane was born. April 10th 9:23am. She weighed 6lbs 4oz and was 19 inches long.
