This week was fun! Luke is becoming so much more vocal. Check out this sample:
On Friday night I had the good fortune to host 4 of my Purdue swimming friends for dinner. Patricia was in town from New York, fresh off landing her NEW job as a nurse, and so it was a perfect reason to get together with our other IL area buddies Missy, Ashley and Leah. The night included wine, cheese, dinner and lots of laughs.

Saturday the whole family took a road trip to Indy to visit Katie and Joe. It was Luke's first long car trip (3 & 1/2 hours) and he did great, despite only sleeping for about 45 minutes of it. Katie & Joe hosted a wonderful dinner party for us to give Luke the opportunity to meet our friends from Purdue Ken & Michelle and Brian & Erica. Sunday we headed home and Luke actually slept for almost the entire trip. Good man!

I almost forgot! Luke had his 4 month doctor appointment yesterday. The doctor says he is doing great. It turns out that he is not as giant of a baby as I had thought. I still say he's big, wearing 6-9 month sleepers already! Here are the stats:
Length: 25 1/2 inches (75th percentile)
Weight: 15 lbs 6.5 ounces (50-75th percentile)
Head Circumference: 43 1/4 cms (75th percentile)
Now if we could just get him to sleep through the night. Total regression when it comes to sleeping. Last night he woke up every 1 & 1/2 like clockwork, he didn't even do that when he was a newborn! Teething? Congestion? Hunger pangs? Or just liking Mom and Dad coming to visit several times a night? Only he knows. Time to start reading all those books Kristin gave me on sleeping techniques I guess.
