Tucker Robbins

James Tucker Robbins (a.k.a. "Tucker"): While I am proud to be the latest in a long line of "James" in our family, for the sake of originality I am going to go by "Tucker" for now. Tucker the boy, not the car, the guy with the bow tie on Fox or the player of the year candidate from Wisconsin. With Parents from Baltimore, I'm just happy I didn't wind up with something too cutsie (Skip, Scooter, etc.) and/or androgynous (Carey, Casey, etc.).

Cousins in Annapolis

You should really write your own captions to this one: Jack and I hit the deck and leave baby Kate in tears? Merry Christmas.

Smocking is for Sissies

By all accounts I was adorable in this green smocked outfit. That said, I think I agree with Daddy that smocking is a bit "Lord Fauntleroy" for my tastes.

Christmas w/ Nana & Papa

The biggest hit this year was my very own motorized fire truck. I rode all over the living room - crashed into every wall - and finally took a break to play elf for everyone else.

Yule Tide Cheer

Here are Daddy and I on Christmas Eve. I don't know about you, but it looks to me like the big guy has had a few too many glasses of yule tide cheer.

Christmas Eve Dinner

This year we moved our traditional Christmas Eve Indian feast from Baltimore to NoVA. I posed with Nana and Papa after polishing off a basket of naan and a side of raita.

Christmas Tree Store

This year, Mom and Dad let me pick out our tree at the "Christmas Tree Store." Naturally, I liked them all but after much deliberation I finally found my favorite and then celebrated over a plate of cookies and hot choclolate.

Lion Country Safari

After the safari and the giraffe, I still wasn't tired, so I captained the boats for a bit and then took a golf lesson from Daddy. For future reference, taking golf lessons from Daddy is like taking hair care advice from S.C.

Cupid the Giraffe

After a fun "driving safari" at Lion Country Safari we had a chance to feed the giraffes. Their tongues are even longer than Murphy's.

Sunshine State Sliding


We took a break from the cold of DC and the hustle and bustle of Holiday shopping to soak up some Florida sunshine. Here I am showing off my sliding skills at the playground on the beach.

First Haircut

Don't let the picture fool you, I actually had a great time at my first haircut. I watched cartoons, didn't cry, got a lollipop and did my best DeNiro impression. "You got a problem wit dat?"
