It was lovely this evening and so we headed to the AG Center after dinner. The humidity was a bit intense but the fresh air and beautiful sky balanced that out. There were a number of other walkers enjoying the time as well. Lots of fireflies in the main field. Luke pretty much slept the whole time.
It really feels strange not to be doing anything on Sunday after a long week of activity. We were going to go for a walk this morning after Luke’s first feeding, but I kind of overslept. Hopefully we will make it out this evening. Luke has been pretty relaxed today. He did a little tummy time and slept a bit.
The little man has been in a pretty good mood today. He has eaten well, been out to see his grandmother, and is currently napping. Hopefully we will go for a walk at the AG Center later this evening. It has been nice and cool today and it should be lovely out in a couple of hours.
Luke seems to really enjoy things that spin. We first noticed this a couple of weeks ago as he stared at the ceiling fan in the cottage. There was a little spinning rotating thing that came with his pack and play, but you had to move it by hand, and it was pretty lame. So a couple of days ago I ordered him a new one off Amazon. It arrived today and I started messing with it this evening. Although it was very highly rated, it had a couple of shortcomings. First, it didn’t include anything to dangle from it. To remedy that I took a couple of little bits from the old device. Second, it wouldn’t mount to his pack and play. For that I just used some shipping tape to attach it to the old post. He has been laying down and watching it for the last little while. It seems to make him pretty happy.
It obviously takes on a new meaning this year. It has felt like a busy stretch of “special days” since Luke was born – Liz’s birthday, then mine, Mother’s Day and now Father’s Day. That’s a lot crammed into two and a half months.
We went up to East Nashville this morning to look at some doors at a friend’s house. He is wanting to get rid of them and they could be a good fit for the farmhouse. I didn’t get a great look at them, but saw enough to know that I want to return with my trailer and pick a few up. They are classic solid wood doors. Luke did a good job of pretty much sleeping the whole trip.
The rest of the morning and afternoon were pretty relaxed other than a little bit of fussiness. He isn’t liking his new formula so I ordered another kind online. I also ordered a little spinning thing to go above his pack and play. We did a little tummy time which he seemed to enjoy.
It rained late afternoon and thankfully cooled things off a bit. We met my parents and Lauren for a picnic dinner at the AG center. That was very nice, as was the little walk we went on afterwards. Luke was pretty well behaved the whole time.
I dropped Liz and Luke off at the condo and went to Target to pick up the formula I ordered. We are just a few minutes away from seeing if he likes it or not!
