We took advantage of this afternoon’s lovely weather and went on a couple of walks. The first was with the stroller and the second saw Luke being carried in an ErgoBaby harness by Liz. Unfortunately I didn’t photograph the occasion. Next time. Both walks really relaxed him and lulled him to sleep. We will definitely be doing a bit more walking. Below are a couple of pictures from the rest of the day.
It’s a pretty nasty day outside. Lots of rain and dark skies. I drove down to the far at the crack in order to check on the (lack of) progress. I returned in time for Luke’s first feeding. We also gave him a bath. He was pretty relaxed until the very end at which point he started crying. Perhaps he just got a little cold. Drying him off and putting him back in clothes calmed him back down.
It’s too bad about the rain because it would be nice to take him on another walk today. At least it’s supposed to be clear tomorrow. He hasn’t really been fussy yet today, but we are only just coming up on two o’clock. I had a little nap this morning but am still pretty tired. Luke and Liz are sleeping now.
I did a bit of tractor work today, and went into the back field for the first time in ages. The view from the very back corner was pretty cool. It was neat to not see the road and it made the property seem huge. There is more slope back there than I realized. It will be fun once the field is mowed and also once the goat sheds and pens are built.
Luke has been a real terror these past few days and nights. Just going nuts and not sleeping at all. Only nursing seems to calm him, but he starts screaming again as soon as he is finished. He isn’t really crying in the picture below, although I took plenty of photos today when he was.
Luke turns one month old today. He has been smiling a little bit, although I have yet to capture it on camera. He is also starting to get pretty fussy.
