7 Months

My sweet little Luke is 7 months old!  Wow...time flies when you're having fun!  Luke is definitely starting to show his little personality.  He has turned into such a happy boy!  We've given up on schedules and now just go with the flow.  Luke is responding well to this new plan.  He has had a fun filled month with trips to Disneyland, Gymboree, the park, and swim lessons at CSUF.  Luke is definitely a little fish and loves the water.  We also began introducing more fruits and veggies this month.  Luke is an eating machine!  He will eat anything I give him...although he is not as quick to open his mouth when I feed him green beans.

6 Months

I can't believe Luke is 6 months old.  Time really flies by.  I think we have finally turned a corner with our little man.  He is beginning to fall into a more predictable sleep schedule.  He is generally a happy boy during the day.  He loves to play with his toys, watch Baby Einstein and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, and go swimming.  I think he is going to be a little fish this summer.  Over the last month he began sitting up, is using his hands to reach, grasp, and transfer toys, and is now eating fruits and veggies like a champ.  With my return to work he has adjusted perfectly.  The Nanny is working out great and I love being back at work part time.  

6 month Stats:

Height: 24.5inches

Weight: 15 pounds 10 oz.

Happy Father's Day

 We celebrated Luke's half birthday on June 27th!  I made him a cake but he didn't get any :)

He was such a good boy at Uncle Jason's Wedding!

5 Months

I can't believe my little Lukey Bear is 5 months old!  He is rolling tummy to back and back to side.  He loves playing in his exersaucer and is beginning to bounce and spin in it.  He is using his hands to grasp objects and bring them to his mouth.  Everything goes in the mouth these days.  He has also developed this happy squeal and is talking all the time.  We also began introducing rice cereal at the very end of the 4th month.  He is now opening his mouth to accept the spoon.  He is still only taking a few bites, more for practice than nutrition, at this point.  He is beginning to fall into a schedule which will be helpful for the Nanny.  Mommy goes back to work, part time, in June.  It will be hard to leave my little man but I think it will also be a good break.  Wish us luck!

4 Months Old

Another month has flown by.  Luke is now sitting up in his bumbo, pushing up onto his elbows while on his tummy, grasping toys and bringing them to his mouth, and rolling onto his side.  He is fascinated with his hands.  We catch him looking at his hands in amazement daily.  He is also chewing on his hands like crazy.  Many of the pictures over this month are of him with his hands in his mouth.


4 Month Stats:
Height: 24.5 inches

Luke had his 3 month Photos taken at Sears.  This was our third attempt at making our appointment without tears or a meltdown. He was so good and smiled for the camera!
