8.5 weeks

Yesterday we took him to the bank and grocery store... AND HE DID NOT SCREAM ONCE. And for the past 3 days in a row he has slept in his swing for 10-15 minutes. He will also let me sit in a chair while he is in the sling (are the days of pacing ending??). Lights at the end of the tunnel? Everyone says it gets better starting a 3 months (12 weeks)... so I'm in the home stretch. He will be 14 weeks when we take him to Charleston, so I hope he's a happy baby by then.

I woke up with a cold this morning. Boy, I bet it will be fun trying to heal from a cold while NOT SLEEPING!

I took some pics of Luca's favorite things to look at, turned them black and white, and blurred them. I give you...
The World as Luca Sees It:









I don't know what it is about the Dock Street poster above his changing table (last picture), but anytime he is laying there and looks up at it, he gets SO excited! He smiles and talks to it and kicks his legs with delight.

His Grandma Sharon is visiting this week (Ash's mom).
