Wow! I can't believe it. Luke is already 4 months old. We went to his well child check up and guess how much he weighs now? He is 17 lbs on the nose. He is also 26.5 inches. What a bruiser! He is in the 95th percentile in both height and weight. People always ask me how old he is and then say, "oh, I was going to guess around 9 months." He's a big guy but we love every inch. He is rolling over, smiling, often, flirting with everyone, babbling alot, holding toys, putting everything in his mouth, starting to take some good naps, growing back some of the hair he lost, and sleeping through the night about half the time. And most importantly, he laughed for the first time yesterday watching his day try to swat a fly. I guess Rick looked really funny.
Also, I started working again in the middle of August :( and have been majorly busy ever since. I feel bad for little Luke, even though he is handling it like a champ. I think he likes spending time with both of his grandma's. I am so grateful for their help while I am gone. Afterall, they are more qualified than I am to care for a baby:). It feels like a dream to only be there at work 2.5 days a week. I get a 4 day weekend every week. Love it! And I love the time I get to spend with Luke.

I'm glad that things are going well and that you are only working 2.5 days a week. I've been working for 2.5 days a week for three years now and love it!
We need more pictures! ;) Glad to hear you guys are having fun! I'm almost over the sickness, so we'll have to get together soon!!
uh yeah, I need about 35 pictures of his royal chubbieness! Holy cow, I really can't believe how huge he is. Two weeks ago Mark weighed in at 13.5 lbs, so maybe he's close to 14 now. Your child is massive. So let us see him! How nice you don't have to work too much, best of both worlds I hope for you.
I need to come and see the little chubster! You are a great mom - just as qualified as grandmas are!! :)
love ya and miss ya!
