Not so little Lucas

Well, its been a while since I've left a post, but Lucas is sleeping and Sam is at work and I've already taken my shower so I have a few minutes!! We weighed Lucas at the doctor's on Monday.....he was 12 lb 9 ounces and 24 inches long! Wow....that's some growth in his six weeks of life! He really hasn't started to fill out, but I could tell he was getting longer because many of his little outfits are getting too small for him in length.

We went out to lunch for the first time without Sam. Lucas and I met Rachel and little Aiden at The Lunchbox in Fort Worth. Both boys did really great....they pretty much slept through the entire event.

It's amazing how quickly they change. I know people always say that but unless they are your own, you really can't comprehend it. I've been trying to get him to mimic my facial expression and finally, today when I stuck out my tongue, he did it too. We've noticed he's starting to make more cooing sounds and less grunts (too bad, the grunting was hilarious) and when he's really happy he makes a sweet oooooo sound. He can hold his head up really well and he's enjoying his bathtime much more than he did on the video! And last,but not least, his smiles melt my heart.
