Lucas has his first cold :( Its not too bad. Just a runny nose and a gross cough. I took him to the doctor on wednesday and she said to get a cool mist humidifer and use saline spray. She said it should be gone within a week and if it wasnt she would give him some antibiotics. Apparently babies usually have a bunch of colds within thier first year. Its just building thier immune system. It started on tuesday and he is already sounding much much better. So I have a feeling it will be completely gone soon! A plus of taking him to the doctor is that they weighed him! I love seeing how much he weighs. He weighed 15lbs 4 oz. What a chunk! Ive been using him as weights sometimes. No, not like doing bicept curls or anything..just lifting him straight up in the air. He LOVES it! I get a pretty good workout too ;) Dont know how much longer i'll be able to do that though!! I need to call and make his 4 mo appt, which should be sometime next week. Then, i'll get all his stats!!

Heres a cute picture I took with my phone the other day. He fell asleep in his exersaucer! haha

First time in his exersaucer:)

Move

Were back home. Lucas did great on the way to Md and on the way back. Couldnt have asked for anything better :) It feels really great to sleep in my own bed! But, we do miss the fam. Also, I wanna give a shout out to all the people who I never knew read this thing!! I wish Lucas was awake when we came to visit you all..maybe next time!

The day we got back we toured a house on base..it was perfect! We get the keys in 2 weeks and our stuff gets moved June 6th! I will miss living in the city, but this move will make life so much easier.

Not much to report besides the move. Until next time!!! :)

3 MONTHS

3 months has gone by so quickly. Technically hes not 3 months until tommorow but we will be in MARYLAND! And im not bringing the monkey with me so I did it today! I asked him today if he was excited for his trip and he said YES! (In a squeal of delight :) ) Im definitley nervous about the trip but im sure it will be just fine. We are all packed and ready.

Hmmm lets see..the biggest milestone of his 3 months of life was that he figured out how to roll over! Now when i put him on his back he pretty much rolls over right away. Also, since hes discovered this hes been doing SO much better holding him self up while hes on his belly. Its crazy how quickly they progress. Another milestone would be his giggles! It is the cutest thing weve ever heard. He wont have another doctors appt for another month, but I think hes about 14 lbs.


Smiling away with his monkey at 3 months :)



See some of you soon!!!!
