3 weeks old!

Today is Luke's 3 week Birthday! We can't get over how fast he is growing! His personality is really developing and it's pretty great if I do say so myself! He is such a good boy and is constantly making Ben and I smile! More pics below!!! He's getting so strong and daddy and Luke have been practicing lifting his head together. He just loves his boppy, he prefers to lounge and fall asleep on his boppy than in his pac n' play. Mommy and Luke, he definitely loves the boob!

Grandmas!

It's official, Ben and I are on our own! We've had two whole weeks of help from the "grandmas" and we couldn't be more greatful! As you know, Grandma Sko was here for the first week, Gammy Dem came in relief and stayed Saturday-Wednesday and then Nana (Conroy) came Wednesday to Sunday! Between the three of them we have had it easy! Our house is clean, our belly's are full, and diaper duty has been simple!

Today has so far gone very smooth! The baby was up from 8:00am-11:00am and has been asleep from 11:00- until now (2:30). I was actually able to take an almost 2 hour nap! Wooohoo! He's starting to stir a bit now...

Below are a few picks of Luke and his grandmas during their visits!

Thank you all sooo much! Ben, Luke, and I are very blessed to have you in our lives! I know Luke enjoyed getting to know you and Ben and I are truly thankful to you! You've given me time to recover and us time to spend with our baby and not worry about the day to day tasks! So many people have told us to cherish this time with the baby and you have allowed us to do just that! Cherish our bubba!

After bath time, Luke is sucking his thumb to soothe himself! Every bath is getting easier and easier since Mom and Dad are getting quicker and smoother!

Chillin with dad watching football and sports! This kid is learning early!

More pictures of the bubba! He's doing great!

First Hokie Game...

Ben has been looking forward to this moment since we started talking about having kids! Daddy and Luke watched their first Hokie game together on Thursday and we won!

First Doctor's Appt...

Luke had his first doctor's appointment yesterday and everything looks great! He was a good boy and he now weighs 8lbs 12ounces, he's gained almost a pound since Monday!

Mom and Edgy have been here helping us since last week and we don't know what we would have done without them! They've been cooking, cleaning, and watching the baby so Ben and I can sleep during the day. Not to mention, mom has changed hundreds of diapers and has gotten peed on a number of times! We are really going to miss them and so will Luke, but lucky for all of us we have Windoes Live Messenger and will be able to see each other every day!

Luke gets his picture taken about a hundred times a day, especially since grandma Sko is here! Below are just a few...

Our little bundle of Joy!

I'm sure most of you have already heard that our sweetheart has arrived! He is doing great, he is healthy and is absolutely beautiful! Ben and I are enjoying every minute and couldn't be more happy! We are truly blessed! I'll try to update this more often with new pictures of Luke!!!
