A Busy Week

Luke's fifth week of life was pretty busy. He got some visitors from Michigan! Grandpa and Grandma Presley came to see him. Here is Luke hanging out with his Grandpa:



Luke also got to spend a lot of time with his Uncle Matt and Aunt Zoe who live right here in Portland. Here is Luke with his Uncle Matt:


Grandma and Grandpa Presley got Luke a bunch of great books, a cool mobile for his crib, a knitted blanket and hat, and these sunglasses for his walks with mama:


Whew. After such a busy week, Luke just likes to relax:

Ha-Ha-Ha

Total Cuteness

Luke is 4 weeks old! Here is what one month of total cuteness looks like.

And below are some random pictures of Luke's fourth week.

First Week Home Alone with Mom

This is the first week that Luke and I have spent home alone together. We are having a fun time, but as you can imagine it leaves me little time to update this blog. What do we do all day? Well, one thing we do is play dress up. So, here's a fashion show:

Little Cowboy

Little Bear

Little Skier

Luke loooves his changing table. He can lay on it for 30 minutes at a time, just staring. We're not sure what he is staring at. Yesterday I put him on his belly and he demonstrated his superior head-raising skills:

Also, Luke finally got his belly button this week!

And here's the whole baby in all his glory.

I measured him yesterday and he is over 23 inches. Not sure of his weight since we don't have a scale, but he's probably over 11 pounds by now. He's a big, healthy guy!

Random Picture Friday

Here are some random pictures from Luke's third week of life.

Luke's Third Week

Grandma and Grandpa Siorek and Uncle Mark left yesterday. Now Luke only has Mom and Dad to entertain him, and then soon just Mom when Dad goes back to work on Monday. Here are some photos that Grandma Siorek took earlier this week. It was hard to narrow down which ones to post, she took so many good ones:

Matt and I are going to cocoon ourselves in the house and enjoy the remaining 5 days he has off from work. Luke continues to amaze us every day. We still can't believe how he can lift his head up for 10-15 seconds at a time. And yesterday he rolled over onto his right side when he was on his belly.


Luke had his two-week check-up today. He weighed in at 10lbs 15 oz! Soon he will be bigger than Roosevelt the Cat!
