Tomorrow = Bloomington

Am I ready for this trip? I'd like to think so. I've been hurriedly getting things together and slowly packing. I even made a list ahead of time in hopes to not forget any of the essentials. I hope it pays off. I'm nervous, but I think we will be just fine. Then I can get my camera back out and take more pictures to add to the website; I know they've been lacking this past week. Now that he is getting bigger and the weather is hopefully getting nicer, he can explore the outdoors a bit more. We can't wait to see Daddy and Newton. Though, I think I'll be due for a nap after we get there.

First Plane Trip

It's getting closer to Lucian's first airplane ride. I really hope that it goes well. I don't want him to be afraid of airplanes or flying. And since it will be only the two of us; I'd like to keep my sanity too. After all, traveling makes the day longer. We have to head for the airport at around 4 am for our morning flight to Indy with a connection :-/. Everyone who I've talked to gave me good stories about flying with babies his age, so it in theory should be no problem. Any advice?

Nappy Time

It's hard to be upset at the little guy when he lays down on the bed and falls asleep while holding your hand. How sweet. Love him.

Repeat

Lucian is in a stage of repeatedly doing things. Mostly swinging chunks of plastic in mommy's general direction. Just one more reason not to appreciate polymers. At least I'm not the only one, the cow takes a beating too. He also likes to be in a seated position as much as possible. When he becomes mobile - I'm in trouble. Secretly, I can't wait.

Countdown

Lucian and Mommy are making a trip to go visit Daddy! We are very excited. This will be Lucian's first long trip and on an airplane none the less. Hopefully, all will go smoothly.

On another note, Lucian is getting bigger everyday. He likes to sit and stand up (not by himself). He doesn't like to be laying down - back or stomach. It gets frustrating that he wants to do it constantly because he is kind of heavy, but at the same time it is fun to watch him do it. Plus, that means I can take a break from carrying him. I think it has been helping his arms get stronger too. I'm starting to look into walkers or doorway jumpers. I think something like that would be fun for him, and free up my arms a bit. We aren't mobile yet.

Lucian the Big Boy

We had our 4 month visit to the doctor's office. I had a different nurse practitioner this time around - She was a lot nicer. I felt kind of bad because I didn't want to go due to our past visits and I kind of came off as a snobby butt. She was a lot more informational and she didn't nag me about anything; neither did the nurse. yay.

The kiddo is now 15 lbs 12 oz and 24.5 inches long. After all that we went for a little stroll around the outlets; it was colder out than I thought but still sunny.

I also found my usb cord and uploaded pictures, so new ones will be appearing shortly.

New Pics

So I've been wanting to update the pictures so everyone can see how much he's grown. Since the move I haven't been able to locate my camera's usb cable. I'll find it! Then I will be sure to update the photos. I'm sure everyone is anxious for new pictures. Also, tomorrow is his next ped appointment. I can't believe he will be 19 weeks tomorrow; it went fast.
