Lucas is now 6 months old!

I can't believe how fast time flies. Lucas is now 6 months old. That means I've been sleep deprived for 6 months too! Haha. He can now sit on his own, roll and roll and roll, babbles a lot, and he is now on his hand and knees, i think the crawling is coming soon...eeek!

I think my son needs a bigger size diaper yup size 5. I'm sick of cleaning poop off shoti's clothes. I hope going up a size solves that problem. He now wears 9 month clothes and weighs probably more than 20lbs. Yikes...i know...my poor back.

Hope everyone has a great week!

More pictures coming this week as Maddie has her Halloween parties on Thursday and Friday.

Until then...

A very busy October

October has been a very busy month for us. We had a field trip at the cranberry farm, lantern festival at school, Thanksgiving in Victoria, and Lucas starting his solids (yahoo!).

Here are a few pictures...

Getting my independence back!

Lucas was 6 weeks old this past Monday so that means...I can drive now!!! Wooohooo.. it's not like I didn't enjoy being chauffeured around but sometimes I just want to go out -- NOW and I can't. It's just different when I know I can go out anytime I want and not have to bother someone to drive me. So thank goodness it's already been 6 weeks.

My son has grown...he now weighs 12.5 lbs and 23 in long! He eats a LOT! Thank goodness we have no problems feeding him the breast or the bottle.


PS. Thank you Mom and Dad for all your help during the past few weeks. It's truly appreciated! :o)

Meet Lucas Edward

Our son is finally here! I have to admit the recovery from my c-section is going better than when I had Maddie. I am more mobile this time compared to before. Am sure my husband is glad because this time he does not have to carry/accompany me to the bathroom. Am not sure if it's because my body knows that am not going to get much help from Cox at the hospital since someone has to stay with Maddie. But my poor mom had to stay with me at the hospital to help with Lucas. Thanks MOM. It's greatly appreciated!

It's been a rough few days trying to adjust to the night time feedings again. It's been awhile since we've done it. But we're slowly getting to some routine. I hope! Like tonight, Cox and I are sharing the night shift, Cox is now getting some shut eye while I stay up and keep shoti company. How am I writing this now you say? Erin came up to meet Lucas for the first time this weekend. So while she is happily keeping him company, I get to post on my blog which I have not done so in a while. It's just been a little too busy preparing for his arrival.

Here are some pictures of our little man..
