Tomcat has become a huge Dukes of Hazzard fan, and sings the theme song many times a day. He has asked me to explain the lyrics over and over. Today he happened to see the 1997 reunion movie. It was so sad to see the much-aged Dukes brawling in the Boar's Nest. Thomas said, "There they go 'fightin' the system'." Glad he's applying the theme song to the action! He then asked me if we could watch the "real" Duke boys instead. I guess even a 4 year old knows there is something pitiful about a reunion movie. He then asked why they were STILL wearing the same clothes (20 years later). haha

While eating his chicken-pot-pie tonight, he wanted to make sure that he wasn't eating "those things I not like, marshmallows!" For the record, he LOVES marshmallows and hates mushrooms.

Yet another way to celebrate Tom's 4th and Tuck's 7 month birthdays was a trip to the doctor for check ups and shots! How many nurses does it take to give 8 shots and a finger prick to the Clinton brothers? THREE!!!! No, Thomas didn't have to be put in a straight jacket but the shrieking and wailing was probably heard miles away. Ironically, the "show" Tomcat put on helped Tucker make it through his own ordeal with minimal crying. Apparently Tuckie found Thomas rather entertaining.
