Great weekend

Lucas and I went for a couple of walks this weekend and enjoyed being outside. Well he slept through most of the walks, but I enjoyed being outside. Saturday, we went to my parent's place to go swimming. Lucas loved the pool. Okay, he didn't scream so I'm considering that a success.

 After he got done playing in the pool he hung out in his stroller next to frampa and played with the towel.

 I forgot to bring him an outfit to put on so he wore my tank top to stay warm

Today I did a lot of cleaning around the house. Lucas has been extra clingy to me so I had to clean during his nap times. Then I made a fabulous dinner of lime marinated chicken. It was delish!

Oh and randomly I'm 1 lb away from my pre-pregnancy weight with Aidan and 3 lbs from my pre-pregnancy weight with Lucas. I'm down 9 lbs from when my weight loss challenge began at the beginning of May. Slow and steady. :-)

I love you Aidan Christopher and Lucas Alexander!

Videos

So for Father's day Lucas got Chris a Flip video camera and I broke it out for the first time yesterday. Enjoy

Lucas has been rolling for awhile now from his back to his belly but I finally caught it on camera

I love you Aidan Christopher and Lucas Alexander

This picture was taken a few weeks ago, but he hasn't changed much.

I can't believe that it's been a year since we found out that I was pregnant with Mr. Lucas. It has been a stressful, anxiety filled,fun, memorable year. Between grieving Aidan and excitement for "Nugget's" arrival it was a difficult year to know how I was feeling. I still cry often for Aidan. I wish he were here playing with his little brother and being a good helper for me, but he's not. Well he is, but I can't see him. I know Lucas can though. 

I love you Aidan Christopher
I love you Lucas Alexander and I look forward to see how you change in the next year.

Size: Some 0-3, but mostly 3 months.

Teeth: none, but he is teething

Sleeping: I love him for this... he's been sleeping 8p-6am. On the weekends he usually takes about 2 30 minute naps and 1 hour long nap

Eating: He's eating about 24oz of breastmilk. I'm only pumping for him. We're going to start him on rice cereal soon

Milestones: I can't think of anything. He's right on track with other babies his age though

Favorite Toys: Sophie and his binkie

Wordless Wednesday

Man I love this little boy who is looking less and less like me and more like his daddy.

 How is my child almost 4 months old?

I love you Aidan Christopher and Lucas Alexander

3 months

Yeah, when I first posted this I hit save instead of publish post.

 

Age: 3 months

Weight: 9 lbs 14 oz

Length: 22 1/2 

Size: 0-3 onsies and 3 month sleepers

Teeth: He's teething, but no teeth

Sleeping: He's an amazing night sleeper. I've been giving him a bottle at night so he usually sleeps from 9pm-3am and then back up at 6:30 for his feeding before going to Gma's

Eating: He eats about 3 oz when I breastfeed him, which is only one time at night and a few times on the weekend. He eats 3-4 4oz bottles at Gma's. The 4 oz bottles are keeping him fuller longer. It's kind of back firing since he has started waking up more to make up for the lack of meals during the day.

Movement: He loves sitting in his bumbo and sitting on our laps. He likes to be outward facing in his Baby Bjorn and "sitting" on my hip when I'm standing up holding him.

Milestones: His smiles are a lot more on purpose. He's starting to hold his binkie more and chewing on his hands
Favorite Toys: He loves Sophie
Dislikes: Diaper changes, burping and being put in the car seat
Words/sounds: This boy talks a ton. He is my child after all. 


I love you Aidan Christopher and Lucas Alexander
