Tucker is closing in on the big THREE-POINT-OH, and recently his verbal abilities have taken a big leap forward.

As most parents will tell you, this is both a blessing and a curse. It has definitely given me a lot of laughs though, and I thought I’d share a few brief conversations we’ve had.

Enjoy!

—

[Changing Tuck's diaper, and shocked by the quantity]
“Good Gravy! ”
“That not gravy, Dada! It’s stinky poop! ”

—

“Tuck, you’re being silly.”
“I’m not being SILLY, Dada, I’m being FUNNY!”
“Oh, sorry. My mistake.”
“I forgive you. You’re welcome.”

—

“What would you like for dinner, Tuck?”
“Wasabi noodles!”
“Um. Here, why don’t you try some wasabi first, and see if you like it?”
“[eats] … … … … … MORE wasabi, dada!”

[Upon seeing Tuck clench his teeth, violently vibrate his head, and sorta "crab pose"]
“Tuck, WHAT are you DOING?”
“I’m Hulking out, Dada. ”
