Tucker Tuesday: Week 11

This is the first of (hopefully) many Tucker Tuesdays.  I've been taking hundreds of pictures of our little guy since he was born, and each week I download them to my computer.  I then upload them to the internet where I am working on a "52 Weeks with Tucker" photo book.  After our Duluth trip, I decided to start sharing a few of my favorite pictures from each week on here so that those of you that don't get to see him very often can see how much he is changing and growing.  So, beginning with week 11, here is my first installment of "Tucker Tuesday."

This has been a busy week.  We got back from our vacation to the North Shore and had a quick visit with Jeremy's cousin Hilary.  Then we visited Grandma Wilson before heading to a Twins game.  We were all exhausted after vacation, so we left after the 5th inning (they lost anyway).  Friday was Tucker's two month appointment, where he weighed in at 13 pounds, 7 ounces.  That put him in the 77 percentile (up from the 18th percentile as a newborn).  He is still spitting lots (as you can see from the action shot below), but the doctors aren't concerned as long as he is putting on weight.  We visited Grandma and Grandpa Buckingham and then headed home.  Tucker was pretty tired and a little fussy the weekend after the shots.  He ran a low-grade fever for about 24 hours and then was noticeably better two days after the shots.  He is finally sleeping in his crib.  We had him in a bassinet with an incline to help with the spitting, but we decided it was time for our big boy to sleep in his crib.  I think he actually liked being able to move around a little bit.  Each time I go in to feed him, I find him in a different position.  Sometimes he has turned a complete 180 degrees!  Our next challenge is to get him to nap in his crib instead of in our arms.  We would welcome any advice for that!  Here are a few pictures from this week.  Enjoy!


I've learned to stick my tongue out at you if I see you do it first!

Mom and Dad still call me "Sir Spits A Lot"

I finally like to sit up with a little help from Mom or Dad.  This is the first time I tried it with the Boppy pillows.
I feel like a king on a throne!


Those little rolls pushed me into the 77th percentile.

This is one of my Vikings outfits.  I got to watch the game with Dad for the 2nd week in a row!
