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.

Sweeties

Tucker loves these little sticks of goodness. Called sweeties, they're just some sugar water and he loves them.  The video was taken several days ago.

    Have you ever tried one? They make you go all fuzzy headed for a bit (I tried one accidently.... don't ask ;)). He's probably like, Wheeee, this is great! Ha!
