6 weeks old already!

Dancin' around!



He loves to dance around all by himself, here's a little smile!

Outside in a hat on a beautiful day!

Laying with Papa.

I can't believe Luke is 6 weeks old already!! :-( But it's getting more fun every day. He is getting more and more personality to him and is aware of his surroundings. When he's awake, he's always looking around at something. He's growing really fast too, he's 12 pounds already. I had to get rid of all of his 0-3 months clothes, and get him 3-6 month PJ's. He's a big feller! We'll see if he continutes to grow this fast or if he's just on a spurt, he's gaining a pound a week at this rate. It could slow down though, who knows. He also came down with a bit of a cold that he seems to finally be getting over. He's still a little congested, but it's improving. He also got his Mama sick, but I think I'm getting better too.
We had some great news in our family, my brother made it through the GM cuts! We are so happy for him and his family. What a relief. Our prayers do go out to his coworkers who were let go, it must be very hard for everyone there. It is bittersweet for Tony I'm sure...seeing his friends get let go yet he is staying. Very tough I'm sure.
In other news, Lucas is getting baptized next weekend. I'm REALLY looking forward to it! My parents, Tony, Rachel, Sam, Andy, Kristina, Ava, and Aunt Kathy will be here!! YEAH! I'm sure the weekend will go by too fast like it always does. But I really can't wait. Tony and Rachel haven't been here in years, so it's something I've been excited for for a long time. And I can't wait to see Sam & Ava, and the Allans too! It will be really neat to see how much the babies have grown. And having all of the kids together will be awesome. Lucas can't wait to meet his cousins. Lots of pictures will be taken I'm sure! The only downfall is that Jane and Lee can't make it, they will be out on the east coast helping Kristin with the kids. Her husband is going to be traveling for about a month so she is going to need a helping hand!
K, time to go figure out what's for dinner. XOXO!

What an adorable baby! I have 2 very awesome grandsons and a very cute grand niece, if I must say so myself. Next weekend will be wonderful with everyone together.
Can't wait!
Love to my darling Wisconsin grandboy.
