Halloween Out and About

Colin got more out of Halloween than last year, namely being awake for more than an hour or two in a row! Brian took full advantage, spending the prior weekend turning his parents’ garage into an animated haunted house. And, the family set out on Halloween day to spend a frightful night in the country…

A Week’s Worth of Halloween

Halloween with kids is quite the ordeal. There are neighborhood parties, trick-or-treating at work, costumes at school and then – of course – trick-or-treating on Halloween. Colin did it all and then some. He got more mileage out of his $12 costume than we could have ever imagined! Here’s how Halloween rolled out BEFORE the…

One Times Two = One

It wouldn’t be a true first birthday without multiple parties, right? After all, it’s a big deal! That’s what Colin thought as he had his second first birthday party in Connecticut, hosted by Nonna. Here’s how it went down…

Ode to Pearl Jam

We interrupt what has turned into the Colin show for a very important topic – Pearl Jam. The legendary rockers killed it in Hartford in late October. I was lucky enough to be there to witness it. Here’s a little something for all the fans out there… CHECK OUT SOME VIDEO:

The Big One!

Colin’s first birthday didn’t exactly go as he may have liked. He had a bad diaper rash, his stomach wasn’t feeling well, and he had to get three shots at the doctor. Poor guy! But, that was all forgotten the next day, when the Tucker side came over to celebrate his big day! There was…

Getting into the Spirit!

It’s no secret, Brian’s favorite holiday is Halloween. Naturally, he was extremely excited to take Colin on his first trip to Spirit Halloween store. Aside from what we call “the rat incident”, Colin was completely unphased by the experience, in a good way. So, there’s hope for him yet! Happy Halloween to one and all!

More Farmland Fun

With glorious fall (or really summer-like) weather in full swing, it was the perfect time for a second trip out West for pumpkin-filled fun. Homestead Farm was a bit more low key than Pumpkinville, but just as fun! Colin experienced his first hayride and got to pick his very own pumpkin fresh from the ground….

Ah, Fall!

It’s not fall without a trip to the pumpkin patch. But, we went one up from last year by heading to Pumpkinville, an animal-park-turned-fall-festival site! There were rides, animals, music and more – too bad C was a little too young to take advantage of it all. We still had a great time during the…

Happy Birthday, C!

So – hard to believe – but it’s been one year since Colin Brian was evicted to make his debut into the world. What an adventure it’s been! Here is a month-by-month account of his growth into a little man…first birthday pictures to come soon! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, C!
