Changes for Tuck

Baby Boy #3 is well on his way, and this has shoved growing up into high gear for little Tuck-man.
Bless his heart.

In the last few months, he's let go of all things "baby"-- which needed to happen, but always seems so abrupt!

He desperately needed to rid himself of the bottle (water only, but still), and that was the first thing taken from him.
Poor dude was at a loss for a while, but... he overcame!

Not long after, he got a "big boy bed" when we changed his crib into a toddler bed.
Soon, he and Jack will shack up together on some bunk beds.




He required some TLC at first, but never (seriously never) got out of his bed without us coming and saying it was ok.  Winner!


One day in early June, I woke up and decided it was potty training time.

I had done nothing to prepare.

But, I was going for it!

We headed to Target, got some undies and prizes-- and there was no looking back (for better or worse!)



Some parts of the process were so easy.
He never asked for a diaper or pull up after he started in underwear.
Never had accidents at night.


Other parts... confusing and frustrating for us all.
Man, it's a rough part of parenting.

Luckily, with some help of Jack and a plethora of smiley charts... we got it!



Holla to 4 months without buying diapers!!


Little dude is a trooper.  He seems older by the day!
