Tooth #5

Tooth #5 broke through the skin sometime in the last 24 hours. I felt like mom of the year when I picked him from the babysitters and saw the top of the new tooth (I didn't expect a tooth anytime soon because he hasn't shown any signs of discomfort.)

First WORDS!!

WHOA! I want to crawl in bed and pretend this is not happening. Luke said his first WORDS today. He said something that we are assuming means momma multiple times today. While we were playing on the floor with Toby he would repeat ball after I said it. Of course it wasn't as clear as ball, but it sounded like baaah. I am counting these as his first words.

Sorry I have been MIA. Life is stuck on cruise control at about 90 mph. Luke is doing great! He is crawling, pulling up on everything and doing his best to stand on his own after letting go. He eats anything that is offered to him. He is still nursing like a champ, but not yet sleeping through the night. We can't have it all :) He is the happiest little guy.

We are gearing up for Halloween. I can't wait to show you his costume!

Teeth!

Yes, that is plural. One tooth broke through yesterday morning and the second one sometime today. Sunday day and night Luke was restless. Read... no.naps.all day. Monday the sitter called to let me know he was very unhappy. This was the first time she ever called :( Mommy panic set in. I picked him up and we headed home. I *thought* he was coming down with something. Another night of multiple wake ups. He was back to my smiling baby yesterday morning.

P.S. I have 18 saved posts. I will try and update this soon.

First Birthday Outfit

Yes, I am nuts. I came across this accidentally, but I am in love. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=6922619&id=104303745940

If I was confident what size he would wear in November, then I would have already bought it. I then found some good decor ideas for his birthday party. I'm 98% sure that it will involve sock monkeys!!!

That was proof that I am that bored some days. On that note, I am working a half day on Friday. I'm not dreading it, yet.


Here is a picture from last night. Luke sat in his high chair while we ate dinner.

Big Sigh of Relief

We finally decided on who will watch Luke. Best of all, it is someone I know and trust. (To give you some insight, I won't leave him with even my MIL. Yes, I may be just a little bit over protective.) She lives about 10 minutes from work. We were originally undecided if we wanted him closer to home or work. We decided it would work better if he is closer to work. I could go and nurse him on my lunch break if I wanted. With him being close to work, it will make doctor appointments easier since I will not drive all the way home and then back to hid doctor, since they are off Beach.

Sorry to ramble, BUT this is a huge relief. So, now the countdown to return to work begins. About 3 weeks left at home.

6 week post partum visit

All is healed :) I was happy to step on the scale to see 11 pounds lighter than prepregnancy. Woot! Now, if it will just continue. I want to lose another 20 pounds, but will not be dieting anytime soon. I am terrified of messing with my supply.

I was disappointed when my OB said she would wait at least 6 weeks before starting Zumba. She thinks it is a little to intense for a healing uterus. Looks like we will keep on walking.
