So Much to Say..

...but not enough time to say it.  Life has been very busy.  I'm now back to work so when I'm home I'm squeezing in as much quality Lukas time as possible and when I'm at work I'm trying to be as efficient as possible to maximize said quality Lukas time.  But I will write soon about how it's been since maternity leave ended and other life things.

For now, I thought I'd share some updated pics of Lukas.  At his three month appointment last week he weighed in at 13 pounds 5 ounces (50th percentile), is 25 inches long (75th percentile) and still has a tiny head at 15.5 inches (25th percentile).  He had a big growth spurt since our 6 week appointment (where he was 25th%/25th%/10th% respectively).

And he's doing great.  He laughed out loud for this first time this weekend - apparently our friend Lauren is hilarious - he hasn't laughed for just us yet.  He has found his hands and loves sucking on his pointer finger but hasn't found his thumb yet...it's usually curled under into his palm.  He's a good sleeper - last night he slept downstairs in the nursery for the first time at night (he has been in our room since he came home from the hospital).  I woke up at 3am wondering why he hadn't woken to eat yet, but let him keep sleeping while I sleepily pumped in the dark...the joys of nursing...  He didn't wake until 6am...so he went EIGHT straight hours!!!  His longest stretch yet.  He smiles a lot and is a very happy baby.  I fall in love with him more every day!  Just look at this face - how can you not love him?!?!
