It has been several months since our last blog update, and life keeps getting busier and busier. Mom returned to work at the end of March. Since that time, the entire family has been adjusting to the always-rushed schedule. Lucas seems to enjoy his friends at daycare. He gets regular visits throughout the day from his big sister, Kayleigh. Kayleigh affectionately calls Lucas, "My baby Lucas." She adores her brother, still.
Lucas has managed to stay relatively healthy during the spring months, but just a couple weeks ago, he came down with quite a list of infections including pinkeye, ear infections, and a yeast infection on his neck. A good ol' antibiotic cleared it up, and he is back to his usually happy self. Lucas' demeanor is pretty laid back until it is time to eat. He enjoys his bottles, particularly in the middle of the night. He now weighs just under 20 pounds, which is more than his sister weighed when she was one.
Lucas started cereal at 4 months, but Mom and Dad stopped it until he felt better and his infections cleared up. He is now 5 months old -today - and loving cereal. Lucas is also becoming more and more vocal as he explores his voice by making cooing sounds. He is still working on getting his body to roll over which is no easy feat considering the belly he is packing around.
We are all enjoying the fun of having a baby in the house, but a good night of sleep would be much appreciated in the near future!
