We are having a blast, he's the greatest baby ever.
Okay, I'll try to keep posting because this may be my only reliable archive, and this time is flying by - as I expected...
Lukas is now:
- Babbling, squealing, laughing, squeeking.
- Smiling at anyone who will smile at him.
- Sleeping in the sling like a pro.
- Nursing in the sling like a pro. (It was the nursing that won him over on the sling concept. When good things happen in a suspect place, it is probably OK.)
- Batting at things hanging above him.
- Enjoying his Bjorn bouncy chair - and sleeping in it!
- Taking milk from a bottle (thanks to Aunt Steph)
- Kicking his legs around - especially when someone is trying to put a diaper on.
- Cooperating when he is getting dressed, though brilliant baby that he is, he did that from the start.
- The sound of Lukas telling me all about his trauma of having had to wait to nurse after he has settled in and started nursing.
- His smile and dimples.
- The fact that Lukas loves watching everything, and has since day one.
- Folding his clothes, and enjoying the adorableness of it all.
- His good humor at the diaper changing table.
- Waking up and having a baby beside me.
- Holding a warm bundle against me as he sleeps.
- Treasuring every moment, even the late night when is he ever going to sleep moments.
- Knowing that each day something new will happen.
- Talking with people about the baby - this will pass and he will become just another kid, but for now, he's popular!
- Sharing this miracle with friends and family
- Being a mom, though I still can't quite believe that I am a MOM.
