Yeah you think I'm crazy, but that's not fair

Update Tuesday

(Just kidding... I can't commit to an every tuesday thing, but it is time for updates...)

In reference to the title, man it can be so frustrating trying to communicate with little people who lack the language skills to tell you what the problem is... 

back to business

Tucker-man:

-He rolled over for the first time last week!

-He has found his toes and loves to play with them

-He's moved up to a size 2 diaper and weighs 14 lbs!

(I think zoey was in size 1 until she was 9 months old...)

-He's found his voice and babbles all the time. Loudly. 

-He's in the feel around while nursing stage. It was cute at first, and now I'm just sick of his hands all over my face while he eats--super annoying.

-He was at one point sleeping usually 6 hours at night, and is back to 3 hours being his longest stretch. It's killing me. I'll probably start solids next week.

Zoeyisms:

(imagine Agnes voice about unicorns in despicable me)

We went out while it was raining, "PUDDLES! SO MUCH PUDDLES!!!"

"Mom, I want daddy to come home" "Oh really, why?" "Cause he's my best friend"

Cary and I had to run the YM/YW activity wednesday, so while she was running free in the church she found a book of mormon, tucked it under her arm and started marching "I got a book of mormon, mormon, mormon, A book of mormon..."

It was hilarious! I didn't know she even knew what a book of mormon was, and here she is marching off mission style.

We're safe and sound

Introducing:

Aaron Tucker Tippets

(We call him Tucker. Or Tuck. Or Tuckmeister. Or Tuckerman.)

(Cary is a big fan of nicknames.)

Tucker was born August 25, 2013 at 2:15 pm.

I went boating the day before, went into labor around midnight, and headed to the hospital around 6 am. Labor was night and day different from Zoey's. Tucker's delivery was great and recovery has been soooo much smoother this time around. I call him my perfect baby because I wouldn't change any of it. 

Also, that was probably the best boat ride of my life!

Physical Stats on Tucker:

-Born 2 weeks early weighing 7 lb 12 oz. 20 in long

-He has a little hair, less than Zoey initially had, but he's kept it longer :) Cary also wanted me to note that he has a perfectly shaped head... apparently it runs in the family.

-He's got long long arms, and super long skinny feet.

Personality Stats on Tucker:

-Easy going!

-He is pretty much only interested in sleeping and eating

-Total mamas boy. He loves me best. It makes me feel pretty great (especially since Zoey didn't reallly care if it was me holding her or not), but it does make it hard to get things done.

We're all in love with "baby brudda" (as zoey says). It's nice to have a punctual member in the family and we're adjusting well to our new family of four status.
