Luke in Chris' outfit from when he was a baby.
Each of the kids have gotten their picture taken in it. Somewhere along the way - I think with Anna - the zipper broke. It's stuck down near one leg and won't go up or down. So, the outfit is strategically placed on him to try to cover him up a little. He looks so cute as a little blue mouse. I love how the ears stand up. I can't believe Chris was this little once.
He'll probably hate me for this when he grows up!
Luke turned 2 months old yesterday. Today he had his check up at the doctor. It's official - He's growing like a weed!!! He is now 24 1/2 inches long (95th percentile) and 13 pounds 10 ounces (90th-95th percentile). Last month his weight was in the 50th-75th percentile.
New things Luke has done this month:
- he's more alert and squirms around- we see a lot more of his eyes these days
- he's starting to hit at mobiles hanging in his reach and tracking things
- he's cooing
- he's eating lots and lots and lots...
- he's settling into a little better sleep pattern (good for him and Mommy!)
- he's smiling: He smiled for the first time the day before he turned 6 weeks old. then we got just one smile per day - usually at night- for a while. But now we get smiles all throughout the day. It's wonderful. He seems especially enthralled with Mommy and Anna - we get lots of special smiles but then again he's stuck looking at our crazy faces all day long (and all night long in Mommy's case!).
For Mother's Day I asked for three things: I didn't want to cook, I didn't want to clean, and I wanted a picture of me with all the kids. Chris did a great job cooking and keeping everything cleaned up and he tried to get a good picture. The kids just weren't on the same page. Hey, this is what they usually look like, right? We'll keep trying but I'm still really happy to have a picture of me with my babies :) (I still can't believe I have 3 kids!!) I am so very, very blessed to be their Mommy.
Oh - and I wanted a nap. That didn't happen but it was okay. I was rested!
