It's another BOY!

We went to Baby's First Images on 9/17 (Brian's birthday!) to find out the sex of baby Tucker #2. The ultrasound tech put the transducer on my belly and we could tell he was a boy within about three seconds. Haha. Not shy at all. He looks JUST like Noah to me. Grandma Dewey and Grammy tried to keep Noah happy during the ultrasound but he got nervous and upset. At one point he held my hand which was really cute. Then they took him to the waiting room to play. Check out these pics and video:






My last prenatal appt was on 9/15 and everything looked good. His heart beat was 144 bpm. My mom and Noah got to hear the heart beat and Noah has been calling him the "heart baby" ever since. He also likes to hug my belly and say "hi, baby." Couldn't get much cuter.

I'm currently 16 weeks 5 days and weigh 133.5 lbs. Started off at 127. Not too bad. Hoping I don't get up to 191 like I did with Noah! Yikes.

Tuckerling #2

My LMP was 5/26/11.
First found out I was pregnant at Shannon's house on 6/23/11.
According to ovulation tests I'm pretty sure we conceived on 6/12/11.
Had a consultation with the home birth midwives (Debbie Pulley and Kay Johnson) on 7/14/11.
Had my first prenatal appt today (8/18/11) and we heard the heart beat! 164 bpm.
I thought I first felt some movement at 10 weeks.
Started feeling nauseous right at 6 weeks. It's been 24/7 and is still going strong. Have thrown up a few times but not nearly as much as last time!
Have a feeling it's a girl but I had the same feeling with Noah. ;-)
Next appt is 9/15.
Will have an ultrasound around 20 weeks. If baby cooperates we'll find out the sex!


11 weeks

So sweet.

Noah just kissed my belly, then put his hand on it and said "awww, hi baby!"

Virginia!

We just got back from our annual summer trip to Virginia. Stayed with Brian's Grandpa (the kids call him Bebe) and got to visit Uncle Greg, Aunt Patti, Uncle Peter, Kristin, Claire, Deirdre, and Mike. Noah had a blast swimming, playing with Teddy the dog, going crazy with Claire, and riding a choo-choo train. The nine hour car ride just about killed him each way but he did surprisingly well for a two year old. Lots of whining but that was expected. Here's a pic from the trip:


and a video from the car:
