4.5 Month Update

Weighing in at 15 lbs. 14 oz. and 26.5" is Luke Bulebosh! Just had the little bruiser at the doctor's and he's growing fast. Dave and I were just looking at him the other night and couldn't get over how big he's gotten and that he's fast approaching 6 months! We also starting giving him cereal abouit 2 weeks ago and he loves it!

So we'll be introducing veggies and fruits soon. We've finally got the excezma under control...you'll see how bad it was in some of the pics we took (http://bulebosh.shutterfly.com/) but it's all better now!

Luke is also really enjoying the Jumperoo. His head it getting much stronger but he still looks like a bobble head some of the time :)

We also just discovered this morning that he's got 2 teeth on the bottom about to pop thru. I knew they had to be coming because he's been drooling like a faucet and chewing on his hands. Plus he had a crying fit yesterday which is not like him!

Halloween - 4 months

Luke was a pumpkin for his first Halloween. He's probably just thinking, now what are they putting me in to take my picture. - lol. But he sure is a cute pumpkin :)

We're battling a nasty case of excema on Luke's face. It's just so try and itching and not a whole lot you can do for it besides load him up with super thick lotion. (We're using the Eucerin Auqafor lostion) It seems to help, but the red spots just flare up. I think it bothers me more than Luke!

While we're talking about Halloween costumes, I've got to share some of the great pics I've gotten - they are too cute not to share:

• Avary (Tigger)
• Eli (monkey)
• Gracie (penquin)
• Jack (bumblebee)

The Baby Front

We've got lots of updates on the baby front! Michelle and Shawn had their daughter, Brooklyn Nicolette Ulery on 10/18. Andria and Jeff had their little girl on 10/22 - Katelyn Jae Slavick. Here's a pic of Kate :)

Luke and I got to meet Katelyn and she is just adorable & perfect! We'll hopefully be meeting Brooklyn next week. Luke's going to have a lot of girlfriends to choose from - ha!

And we're just waiting to hear about the arrival of little Harry Silvis. I got a text message from Anne yesterday (11/1) and they were in the hospital and hoping to meet their son by the end of the night!

Luke officially has a new Aunt

We had a fun-filled weekend for Jamie and Andrea's wedding and as Andrea said, "She's officially Luke's Aunt now!" The wedding was just awesome - I will get some pics up soon. Andrea's dress was one of the most unique and beautiful dresses I've ever seen and they make the perfect couple! Luke even came to the reception for a while to party.

It's been a crazy past few weeks with me going back to work. We found a great babysitter for Luke who lives down the street. And as all mom's know, it's the hardest thing in the world to leave them - it just takes time to get used to it (or so I'm being told!) We're lucky enough that I have a flexible job so I'm at home 2 days a week and my mom is watching Luke the other day.

We have been able to squeeze in a few fun actitivites despite our busy schedule. We took Luke to the pumpkin patch to pick his first pumpkin :) He looks excited doesn't he - ha ha!

More video

Here's a new video of Luke on his activity mat and he shows us a nice big smile :) I'm loving taking these short videos...hope you're all enjoying them!

Our first full night of sleep :)

Well, our little angel decided to sleep 8 hrs last night - YEAH! As you can tell, I am a bit excited. I put him down a little before 10pm and he slept until 6am! I think maybe he knows mom has to go back to work and he's being nice to me and helping by sleeping thru the night. (And hopefully this continues!)

I start back to work on Oct. 1. Wow, did these 3 months go so fast. It's easily been the most enjoyable 3 months ever for me. The good thing is that I can work from home 2 days a week so we'll see how that works out.

Luke has recently discovered how the toys on his bouncy chair work and he is having so much fun making them move and make music. His facial expressions are the best, like he's surprised they are moving.

Daddy Dave has been super busy with football and school. Latrobe lost a really close one last night to Fox Chapel so I know Dave was a bit frustrated, but he was back up at 5:30am this morning to go back for more...he's so dedicated!

Video of Luke

Thought you may like to see Luke in motion - he's so adorable isn't he?

2 month update

We have been good & busy taking Luke all over and getting lots of firsts under our belt. We just got back from the PSU vs. Notre Dame game...Dave went into the game with Matt and Jenny, Jack, Chrissy, Luke and I went back to the house. The trip was our first long distance adventure - it was a bit stressful but fun!

We also went to our 1st Latrobe football game, out to dinner and camping for the day (told you we've been busy!)

Luke goes to the dr. tomorrow for his first round of shots - yuck. Luke has also been smiling away (but I'm not quick enough on the camera and have yet to capture one, but I'm working on it!
