Baby Tucker #2

After 20 CRAZY weeks of pregnancy I feel so behind in life. This pregnancy has been completely opposite from Braxton so I thought for sure we were having a girl... but "BOY" were we wrong!
We are so excited to be having another little boy and can't wait to meet him. I just had my 20 week ultra sound and he looks perfect and is due to arrive a week earlier than we thought. I am now due June 19th and it feels just around the corner!!




(20 weeks 3 Days)

This pregnancy has been so crazy and we are hoping this little guy is giving us a run for our money now instead of later! I have had a few crazy scary days of spotting, abdominal pains, not being able to hold anything down, no fetal movements, extreme migraines, etc. This little guy is a trooper and has just been growing away and it hasn't seemed to phase him on bit. PHEW!
I started feeling him a few weeks earlier than I did with Braxton, & now feeling complete movements on a daily basis. He pretty much moves around the same time every day like Braxton did but seems to be a little more active already. He is a squirmy little thing and likes his space!
Pregnancy symptoms the past couple weeks....Heart burn has kicked in, along with my sciatic nerve! OUCH! BUT... I can't not complain because I am not swollen one bit yet. I was reading my blog posts the other day & while pregnant with Braxton I actually had my wedding ring off by now, could only wear flip flops, and had gained about 4x the amount of weight already! (Got to love the cold weather for that one) So I have to be excited about that! Lets just pray He's not as big & that the delivery goes a little smoother as well!
I think things will be smooth sailing from here on out and can't wait to see what's in store the next 19 weeks!


BRAXTON....
Braxton is a ball of fire and energy these days! He's saying about 30+ words and adds more and more each and every day to the list. He is on the go non stop and has been so fun. He has quite the attitude and his favorite word right now is "NO" and he loves to give crusties! MAJOR CRUSTIES!
He still LOVES his toothbrushes and has gone to bed with them (yes them about 4-5 are in his hands at a time) the past few weeks. He loves the movies "Lady & the Tramp" "Bambi II" & "Baby Noah" He watches them a few times a day to say the least. He is getting so big and acting so grown up it makes me sad.
He's not quite sure about having another baby but some days will give in and kiss and love my belly and shows me how is is going to hold and rock the baby. He is quite jealous these days so we are working on that hoping he will love his little brother and be okay with sharing his Mommy!
He loves to climb on everything and make slides out of everything. We are dying for spring so we can be outside! He begs me everyday to go outside and I just feel so bad. Poor little guy is getting stir crazy! He is such a joy and keeps us on our toes every second of the day!

As you can tell he is constantly on the go! His poor little face shows it! He has had quite the week of bumps and bruises.




Loves to play in forts and under blankets!


Got to love the attitude!
