3 Months!

Lucas is 3 months.  I can't believe how fast this time is flying.  He's so precious and makes my heart melt everyday. In his 3rd month of life he has:
been sleeping the total night.  This makes Mommy and Daddy proud!  He goes down between 9-10 and sleeps until 6 on daycare days or 8/9 on weekends.
He started daycare while Mommy goes to work.  He just goes to my Sister's house but she babysits other kids so he's getting alot of interaction with other little ones.
Slept away from Mommy and Daddy for the first time.  Not by choice.  I was hospitalized when I got my gall bladder removed and he stayed 2 nights with my Sister and 1 night with my in-laws.  Hardest thing for Mommy to deal with!
Moved up to size 2 diapers.
He wears 3-6 mon clothes but sometimes he's in 9 mon.
Eats 5 oz about 6 times a day.
Still naps wonderfully.
Started to let out a very strong laugh. Still not full on but he's getting there.
Starting spinning the hanging ball on his playmat. 
Halfway rolled from his back to his stomach.
Stroller rides no longer exists with the baby carrier.  He loves sitting up and looking around.
He tries to sit up by himself.  He doesn't like to lay down if there is something going on around him.
He is starting to love tummy time.  I just wish he would roll over.

He also got pictures taken.  He flirted with the photographer!  He is definately Edgar's son. :)

Hi-Ho It's back to work I go...

I've packed Lucas' bag.  I've layed out his clothes for the morning.  He's nice and snug in his bed.  Tomorrow, this Mama goes back to work. Thankfully it's only for a half day.  I wanted to go back a day earlier than scheduled so I can get my desk ready and get back into the groove of things.  My sister is going out of town tomorrow at noon so I have to make sure I'm home by then.  It's going to be nice to be back at work (or if I keep telling myself that I will eventually believe it!) and seeing all my coworkers.  Monday is my real first day back-so that will be the real test.  The only thing I didn't do is lay out my clothes, but I know exactly what I'm wearing so it shouldn't take long. 

We are going to have a jam packed weekend.  Tomorrow after I get out of work, Lucas and I are going to hit up 2 consignment sales.  I couldn't be more excited to shop for him.  My big guy is already in 6 month clothes.  He completely skipped the 3-6 stage.  He needs shorts because right now most of his clothes are some type of pant bottoms.  Tomorrow evening we're supposed to go to my school's dance but I'm not sure if we are really going to go.  Saturday Lucas is staying with Daddy while I go to one of my thirty-one gifts parties.  My friend Stephanie is hosting a party for me and I'm excited.  I had my first party this past Sunday and it was very successful.  Hopefully I get someone to host a party, it would be awesome if they did!  Saturday afternoon, after 3, is open for right now.  Sunday we are meeting my cousin for breakfast and then going to the kite festival.  It's also Erick's gf Cierra's 18th birthday and I think we are doing something for that too.  I'm just glad I am caught up on laundry and my house is pretty much clean so I won't have to do anything this weekend.
