Tarcil with an Elven Archer Lego

I got this Elven Archer from my oldest brother a couple years ago.  I usually keep him on my desk right under my computer monitor so I can enjoy him every time I work.  :)

Tarcil sniffed at the bow and I was worried that he might try to eat it, but then he seemed to realize I was watching him really closely.  He turned and starred at me.  What a cutie!!  :)

Tarcil looks like a giant next to the Lego.  :)

Tarcil with Candles

I LOVE candles!  There is just something about the scent, the warmth, and the flickering flame that mesmerizes me.  Tarcil sniffed at the jar, but it didn't seem to have the same effect on him as it does on me.  :)

Oh and I can't forget to say "Happy Birthday" to my brother from me and Tarcil!  :)

Tarcil and the Snowman

With this first really good snowfall for the year, I knew that I wanted a way to introduce Tarcil to snow.  I also knew that I didn't want to take Tarcil outside, especially not today with how cold it is!  So, I decided that I should make a snowman for Tarcil.  

Tarcil was not very interested in the snowman at all; he didn't even pay attention to the carrot nose.  

The poor little snowman was leaning more and more as he melted away.  Tarcil didn't even seem to care.  What a silly little guy!  :)

Tarcil in the Fruit Bowl

Tarcil LOVES fruit!  I let him sit in the fruit bowl, and he immediately tried to eat the banana.  He seemed a little frustrated that he couldn't get it open.  He was very close to being successful which I discovered later when I noticed all the teeth marks on the skin of the banana.  :)

Tarcil eating his Treats

I had to hold the treat in my hand so that Tarcil wouldn't try to cram the whole thing into his cheek at once.  As you can see, he was tugging at the treat with all of his strength to get it out of my hand.  What a silly little guy!  By the way, he is actually a lot stronger than you might think...  :)

Tarcil the Artist

I always have so much fun coming up with ideas to show you all just how awesome Tarcil is!  He brings me so much joy!  It is my hope that I can spread some cheer onto anyone who sees these pictures and videos of him.  :)

Look at that face!  I love when he scrunches up his face!!

If you have any ideas or requests for a photo shoot of Tarcil, let me know!

Tarcil among Beatrix Potter figurines

Sometimes it can be so comforting to look back and remember your childhood.  As a child, I was obsessed with Beatrix Potter's books.  And I still love her works today!  I have a little collection of mugs, plates, and figurines in addition to my large collection of books.  Tarcil enjoyed sniffing them and pushing them out of his way so he could wander around the table.  :)
