Tucker has brought a wonderful spirit into our home. His brother and sister love him to pieces. Sadie continues to be a FANTASTIC big sister. It amazes me the way she can get him to stop crying. I love hearing her talk to him. Easton is growing more and more fond of him as time goes on. He loves to put his finger in Tucker's hand, "Look Momma, Cucker hold my hand!" The other day he tried to get Tucker to play blocks with him. He even tried to get the block into his hand.
At two weeks Tucker was already 9 lbs. 15 oz..... so basically 10 lbs. He made it back to his birth length.... 21 inches. For those of you who are confused about how he has made it BACK to his birth length... apparently they measured him wrong in the hospital, because when I took him to the Dr. for his check-up he was only 19 inches.....
I love that Tucker is such a cuddly baby. He cuddles right into your chest and he loves to be held. Unfortunately Sadie doesn't like the sound of him crying, so whenever he cries she instantly wants to hold him if I won't. He is a very good eater, he has a hard time with his "bubbles," but seems to be getting better as he gets older.
Last night I was shocked when I woke up at 5:00 a.m. and realized Tucker hadn't eaten since 9:00 pm. It only happened one night... but, hey it helped me get caught up on my sleep so I won't complain. For the most part he is doing well with his sleeping, he usually wakes up once during the night.
One thing I love about Tucker is he gets these little shakes with his leg and his bottom lip. We asked the doctor about it and he said it is nothing to be concerned about, but I love to see his little leg shake. It reminds me of Thumper, from Bambi.
He is SUPER strong. He honestly came out of the womb holding his own head up. When the nurse put him on his belly in his crib at the hospital he started army crawling away. He is a tough little guy and it's a good thing with two big kids around to "take care of him!"
We love Tucker and are SOOO happy he is a part of our family!
