ode to #2

to my dear baby lucas (AKA #2),
'tho you are a difficult baby, i still love you. 'tho you do not sleep at night or during the day, i still love you. 'tho i may be extremely frustrated with you, i love you. and one day, when you learn to sleep and you become a well-rested and happy baby, i will tell you how much i loved you to endure these difficult days.

mommy is feeling exhausted as lucas makes it through his 15th week of life. she goes back to work next week and is feeling anxious about working with a haze of cloudiness constantly filling up her head, but it has to happen some time, so here's to our newest upcoming transition to daycare & work.

below are a few of the latest adventures of #2 who refuses to sleep during the day for more than 40 minutes and likes to play a nightly game of will i sleep tonight or not.


daddy & lucas after a major poop accident that got all over baby and daddy (don't worry, daddy's wearing pants).



he may have the title of 'little' brother, but this guy is not little anymore.
the infant carseat is a tight fit and way too heavy to carry around.



his onesie might say he loves mommy --
if only he knew how much mommy would love him to sleep.



we've discovered new toys that #2 can use.



we thought this 9-month onesie wouldn't fit,
but it looks like we put it on just in time.

#2, I love you (even when it seems like I don't).
