Welcome to our 350th post! Since his first invite in March, we knew it would be a busy “season” for toddler birthdays. A few more second birthdays took place in August, which were fun and totally action-packed. Classmate Elsa’s party was at an indoor gym, and it was truly organized chaos. During the two-hour affair,…

August was a blur!
And just like that, August 2014 is in the books! After five straight weekends away from home, the Tuckers welcomed time in one place for most of the month.

Team Big Walt & Mike truly represented, convening about 40 family members and friends all touched by…
Padded Room Needed
Especially with a particularly long, cold winter, finding ways to expend toddler energy seemed a nearly endless endeavor. A temporary solution was to gather a few buddies and go wild in a soft playroom for an hour. Nap time was a success afterwards!
Hoya Kid Mania!
Always a treat, Colin’s Hoya buddies spent the weekend to break up the winter blues. It was true chaos with five little ones, but we wouldn’t have it any other way. Here are some highlights of the cuties…
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:
