2 week check-up

We went to our 2 week check-up today. Lucas is back up to weight, plus a little bit, weighing in at 8 lbs and 14 oz! He has also gained an inch and is now 21 inches long. Our little boy is growing up! He is nice and healthy and everything looked great.

Going to the doctor was my first trip out of the house alone with a baby. I told the doctor about Lucas's gasiness and the doctor suggested I try to cut cow's milk out of my diet, so in addition to going to the doctor, Lucas had his first trip to Wal-Mart... Mommy had to buy some yucky soy milk. Ummm, can't wait to try that on my cereal tomorrow! Oh yeah - and I need to cut down on cheese and ice cream, just to see if it will effect Lucas. It's like a cruel, sick joke! Do they make soy ice cream? Would it even be worth trying?!

On the plus side, no more ice cream should help me return to my pre-pregnancy weight faster! I definitely do not look pregnant anymore, I just look fat now, so there won't be any pictures of me showing up any time soon. But I'm sure none of you want to see me anyway, so here are some more Lucas pictures!

So precious. Can't wait to see him. I'm back to work part time this week. Still only allowed to lift 5 lbs., so will have to have Lucas placed in my arms so I can hold him. I'm sure I've already violated that 5 lb. rule pulling on Reed. We do want to see you, as well!
