I spent the afternoon with Luke while Liz worked. He was pretty well behaved. We mainly just relaxed and played with toys on the bed. It was a struggle for me not to fall asleep. We might try to go for a walk later.
Rollin’ (over).
Well, Luke hit a big milestone a couple of evenings ago – he rolled over by himself for the first time. We were doing tummy time, and apparently he had enough of being on his tummy, so he rolled over to his back. He has done it a half dozen or so times since. According to Liz’s chart the doctor gave her, that isn’t expected to happen until six months. Exceptional child. This evening during tummy time I filmed him with the hopes he would do it again, but he didn’t. He relaxed with me on the bed for a while after that. I put on his new John Deere socks that Liz’s mother gave him. Tonight he is supposed to get a bath and be weighed, but I’m not sure if either will happen. It is getting pretty late and everybody is rather tired. Two nights ago he also started sleeping in the pack-and-play. It has been a little bit of a difficult transition, but hopefully he will continue to adjust.
Little (strong)Man.
It has been a pleasant day so far and we have enjoyed the milder temperatures. We went to the Ag Center for a walk this morning. Luke stayed awake for most of our first lap, then slept for the remaining two. The fresh air felt great and it was nice to walk around. Back at the condo we all took naps for a while. This afternoon we did tummy time and he lifted his head very high and held it up for a long time. Later this evening he’ll get a bath. Busy day!
Hitting the wall early.
It was the first time all week that I’ve hit the dreaded six hour wall of tiredness. We got started about six again this morning and made incredible progress. We did the kitchen and all of the vanities in unit four very quickly. Then after lunch we started assembling drawers, and progress slowed to a crawl. I took a very brief nap and then started preparation for the floors. That got old quickly so I installed the drawer sliders on all four units. It was after seven when that was done. I wrapped up the day by going up on the roof top terrace on one unit to check out the view.




Luke was relaxed this evening and seemed to enjoy his bath, despite what the pictures below might indicate.
