Tucker Tuesday: Week 17

It has been a pretty low key week.  Mommy and Daddy both had to work the weekend, so Tucker came with me to Grandma and Grandpa's so that I could nurse him as much as possible when I wasn't working.  It cuts into my sleep time, but I've been concerned about my milk supply going down from the stress of work, eating/drinking less while I'm working, and having to pump more since I'm away from him more.  I've started drinking some tea with herbs known to increase lactation, and it seems to be working so I'm hoping that we won't need to supplement with any formula.  This week, Tucker tried a few new activities.  We attempted to use his exersaucer, but he was a little too short to touch the ground and a little too tired to tolerate it.  We will try again with some books under his feet to push off on, but we'll make sure he is well-rested first!  We also got his highchair out and set up.  We used it while we ate lunch one day, and he loved it!  We're trying to use it whenever we are all home and eating a meal together, but I've also used it while I've been doing other things at the kitchen table.  He loves being able to see what is going on, so we also put him in his bouncy seat so he can watch us cooking or cleaning the kitchen.  Next week, we have another professional photography session when he turns 4 months old, but this week there are just a few that Mommy took.

Look at me sitting in my high chair for the first time!

I'm such a big boy!

FEED ME!!!

Just kidding...I'm not old enough to eat real food yet!

Don't worry about eating in front of me.  I'll just play with my raccoon rattle.

I like making new furry friends.

I wonder how long I'll be able to get away with bringing toys to the dinner table.

I wonder how much of this raccoon I can fit in my mouth.
