Playing Catch Up!!

Well, it has been awhile since we have posted. Below is from our adventure to Beaumont.

The Quarterly Party with Lori's large family! We only got a few pics though.

Hangin out with Grandpa and his cousins (Cade & Cale)

Dropping by on the way home to have lunch with some friends, Don & Phyllis

I am a big boy now!!

We started Lucas on a little bit of rice cereal with his feedings now. He has been so active that the breast milk is just not cutting it any more. Funny pics below.
Look at me Grandma...I am a big boy now. Well, maybe not quite yet.
Day #1 Trying to get the hang of it...
Day #2 Getting better and no we are not feeding him Special K. ;)

Fun Days at Daycare

Every week, daycare hosts special days. Some days he comes home with something special. Here's the pics from Mickey Mouse Day and Native American day. He had crazy hair day, too, but unfortunately his hair wasn't so crazy....not enough on his head, thus no pictures. Hopefully, they will have another crazy hair day later in the year.

He's making noises...

Well, we thought we would share some of the fun noises that he makes. We have been meaning to put this up for a week or so now, but Mr. Lucas has not had a very good last 4 days. We have had sleepless nights which have not been very fun. We discovered after a few days of thinking he had some type of infection or gas problem to what is to our surprise teeth coming in. We weren't aware that teeth would be coming in so quickly. It is not typical but according to some of the research we did online it apparently happens quite often. In the mean time, here is a fun bit of him and I playing together. It was a good father / son moment.

Moving right along

We are happy to report Lucas is turning over from belly to back and vice versa. He is also scooting forward on his belly. He's moving so much he doesn't stay on his playmat or floor blanket anymore. He's also gotten really good at sitting up. Unfortunately for us, all this movement has brought about a 4:00 am visitor called hunger. Poor thing's stomach is growling at that time he's so hungry. Luckily, he goes right back to sleep once his belly is full.

College Color Day at Daycare Plus...

Gotta love the Aggies!! Thought we would share on the day mom and son were asked to where their college colors. Plus we have some pics from hanging out with some friends and family over the last few days and weeks.






















Here are some pics of Lucas with friends and family...



Oh and I can't forget his rocking chair that Lori's mom and step dad left for us last weekend. Yep, it's camo. Cool, huh?

Daycare & Two Month Appointment

Well, I'm sure everyone can tell I'm back to work since it's been so long since I've made a post. Lucas has made a wonderful go of daycare. They all love him there & Ms. Betty says he's the sweetest one around and just loves that he is such a good baby.

Sam brings him in the morning and he's usually asleep. Just after he arrives he begins to wake up because all the workers come in to see him and announce "yeah, Lucas is here." I pick him up around 4:00 and he gets the biggest grin on his face when I walk in the room. He's just such a happy baby. Sam and I are so blessed.

I will admit I haven't made the adjustment back to work very well. I am so scattered and unfocused with tasks, it's crazy! Many say it's pregnancy brain still in effect. Even some of my coworkers say it took them two years to get back to normal. WOW! We joke at work because I have a new assistant....she says we really make a pair because I can't remember and she doesn't know. She's so right! At least I don't have to worry about Lucas at daycare.

Right before school started, Lucas had his 2 month checkup and shots. Doctor Worsley said he was doing great and was impressed with his weight gain. He was over 14 pounds. Lucas was happy until it was time for his shots. He didn't cry for very long, luckily.
