3 Mths and counting..

Sorry for the lack of updates!!

Have been pretty busy this month.. Mom visited us for 1 week, it was a good time for me to sleep more and relax a bit while Mom helped to settle Lucas + cooking + household chores.

Lucas is now almost 3.5mths old!! He has improved so much since... He's now able to play on hsi own, he loves his gym mat.. He's able to start grabbing things, flipping himself around the gym mat as well. This morning I was so amazed when I left him on the gym mat to play on his own, and he ended up on the other side of it 20 mins later.. I dunno how he managed to kicked/wriggle/crawl his way there...

He's also so chatty.. he loves to smile and make lots of baby noises and coo... he usually smiles after his milktime, when he's super contended..and wants to start a conversation with u. He's also starting to squeal in delight when he's on the gym mat playing on his own.. love to watch him do that.

He's also found his thumb, so he has taken to sucking it. So his mittens are constantly wet! He's alos slowly discovering his hands and legs. He's so funny; he would lift his arms and stare at them.. and then try to turn them and continue to stare, like as if they're the most amazing things he's ever since.. so cutee...

Never fail to amaze and amuse us everyday. He's now able to sleep through the night. I have stopped the middle-of-the-night feedings already, usually giving him his last feed at about 11pm, and then he can last til 6-7am.. which gives me and the papa much needed sleep nowadays.. Thank Goodness..

We're also, as kiasu parents I guess, always eager to expose him to new things everyday, to expose him to the world. I bring Lucas out quite often on weekdays, to the supermarket, to the nearby department stores. Brought him swimming as well, but think I may stop for now as his face's ezcema is still healing. We also bought him Baby Einstein DVDs, which are very good for babies. He loves to watch them! And Mommy bought him a portable DVD player so now he can even watch them on the go, in the car etc..
