8 Weeks and First Craft Fair

Tucker turned eight weeks old last week. We didn't really celebrate and I've been horrible about updating lately! He does seem a lot bigger than when we first brought him home, but when I look at him and I in the mirror it makes me realize just how tiny he still is! But that also might be because his brother is a giant...

In the last two weeks Tucker's really been smiling and cooing a lot more! Any time you talk to him, his face lights up! Of course, when you try and take a picture of it he stops. Go figure.

I took the boys back home to Alta Vista over the weekend for the annual Buttons and Bows craft fair in Manhattan. The plan was to take Tucker with mom and I while Hayden stayed with dad on the farm. Tucker was such a good boy hanging out in the peanut shell and of course a million people oohed and awed over him!  Hayden was super excited about helping Papa on the farm! All evening and even Sunday morning all he could talk about was feeding the cows hay bales! Mom and dad even pulled out a pair of rubber boots they'd had when our cousin was little. Hayden didn't want to take them off!

Friday and Saturday nights were a little rough. Hayden, Tucker and I slept in what had been Matt's room when we were growing up and for whatever reason Hayden woke up screaming  a couple times a night. He could never tell me what happened or why he was crying but he eventually calmed down each time and went back to sleep. Tucker, on the other hand, would sleep most of the evening, all night and wake up at 6:30 happy as a clam.  I'm pretty sure neither one of them want me to sleep! ;)
