| Newborn December 29, 2014 1:10 a.m. 8 lb, 2 oz; 20 in. 11 days late, and worth the wait!! |
 |
| 1 month Weeks 1-2 - Happy and sleepy! Weeks 3-7 - Overtired at night, new Mama and Papa didn't know what to do! But he liked rigorous bouncing... Week 5 - Started smiling :) Week 6 - Uncle Jacob's family came for a visit Weeks 5-8 - Lactation consultant to the rescue, poor child now got enough milk and then happiness as well. |
 |
| 2 months With GreatGrandma Eleanor Sleeping better! We learned a bit more about early signs of tiredness... How do those firstborns survive?! |
 |
| 3 months Much better sleeper now! And look at those thighs. So happy and delightful and much easier to care for :) |
 |
| 4 months Holding things (like the book in the photo!) Discovered his own hands and feet. So sweet. So many smiles. First Airplane trip - went to Orlando in April for BD prep with org. |
 |
| 5 months Started giggling Loves riding around in the stroller and doing anything outside! |
 |
| 6 months His passport photo :) Lots of giggling!! Peek a boo so funny, and the green dinosaur puppet singing "This Little Light of Mine" also a real Lukas-pleaser. |
 |
| 7 months The swaddle was replaced with Bunny, that faithful friend. Something to hold and stroke instead of scratching his eyes and waking himself up! Intentional waving - our extravert 💕 Smiling for the camera |
 |

 |
| 10 months, in Lalmatia (Dhaka) So friendly with everyone, will be held by anyone! Lunged to Dhaka house-helper upon sight. (Mama's a little jealous, wishing he preferred her.) Put muri (puffed rice) in his mouth with much effort. Sitting up from laying down even in his sleep, oh dear. Can pull himself up to a stand. |
 |
| 11 months A very rapid scooting-crawl. (He never developed a different crawl!) Now prefers Mama, and won't go to anyone else. First tooth! Fell back in high chair and hit his head on the floor- so traumatic for everyone, but he was okay. |
 |
