BIG DAYS

12/24/2010-We're pregnant!
3/23/2011-Tuckers a boy. We also find out he has Myelomeningocele. Which is a defect where the spinal cord doesn't fully develop. Essentially the spinal cord has an opening. This also causes hydrocephalus; spinal fluid builds up in the ventricals (in the head) and needs a shunt put into to circulate back into the body.
3/28/11-Met with neurologist to talk about severity of Tucker's defect. It was hell waiting 5 days. After having a good talk, Liane and I went and did some baby shoppiing. It was a great day of relief.
7/27/11-C-section date 730am. Surgery to close his spine to come within 48hrs.
7/28/11-Surgery to close spine.

6 month pics



I took a week of vacation the last week of January. Just me and litte man.  Gave Grandma Lee and Memere a break. My goal was to get Tucker out of the house at least once a day to get him used to riding in the car and being out of the house.

Visiting mommy at work 

Visited Aunt Ruth and Uncle Ted in Seattle. Tucker and Aunt Ruth got some quality time, while Uncle Ted and I brewed beer.
