Four Months Ago Today........






My "little itty bitty buddy" was born 4 months ago. Luke has brought immeasurable joy to our lives. He is a cute cuddly smiley little guy. You can literally say "smile" and he will happily oblige.

As of today, Luke weighs 14lbs 1oz and 24.75inches long. At his four month appointment they asked me if he reached for his feet. I joked that with his short legs and big belly that he probably couldn't reach them. Guess what? As soon as we got home, he discovered his feet. They are pretty fascinating!

Luke enjoys his jumperoo and can now sit-up for a short period of time. His back and abdominals are still too weak to maintain the position for long. He is babbling more frequently and drools constantly. My sister says that he has a slow leak. He is starting to enjoy playing on the floor, but still prefers to be held. He likes me to sing to him. I will only do it around immediate family. I have difficulty remembering the words to songs, so I just make up my own. They usually rhyme. This is a trait I picked up from my dad. My dad is the best at making up songs, sounds and entertaining the little ones. It doesn't hurt that he has some rhythm, whereas I have none.

I will be adding pictures in the next couple of days, so check back soon.

Chris,

Thanks for posting these pictures. I hate being out of town and seeing our little buddy made me smile. I will see you tomorrow.

Love,
