Busy day for the Little Man.

Posted on by David Maxwell

This morning we took Luke up into town to see the project my dad and I have been working on, and where his grandparents will soon be living. He also met their neighbor, Mr. Holt. After that we went for a walk at the AG Center. We only did two laps instead of our usual three. He was getting a little antsy, plus we spent a bit of time talking with a couple that had two springer spaniels. I was afraid that Liz might offer to trade Luke for the smaller one! Back at the condo everybody napped for a while. This afternoon we did tummy time and just relaxed.

My parents came by this evening. Unfortunately due to his napping and feeding they weren’t able to see much of him. Hopefully they will be able to return this week. He is a little fussy now but nursing seems to be calming him down.

Loving the book toy.

Luke and I played with a little toy that is a combination animal and book this evening. He really engaged with it. After dinner he got a bath and as usual was very relaxed about it. I think we are going to start trying to bath him every other night. He nursed well this evening. We didn’t do tummy time.

Not the final day after all.

I stayed in bed until about 7:30 this morning, which was wonderful. Luke got up about the same time, so I was able to say hello to him before leaving. I drove down to the farm and got my trailer, then picked up the remaining flooring at Big Box. There wasn’t too much traffic up into Nashville. I finished the floors and did some clean up. Unfortunately the trim and other stuff that I was going to haul back with my trailer wasn’t ready, so I left my trailer and will return Monday. Pretty frustrating, but such is life.

Long afternoon with the Little Man.

I got back to the condo pretty early this afternoon and was able to see Luke while Liz nursed. He then took a long nap (unfortunately I did not). After he woke up we relaxed on the bed for a little while. He did some tummy time and really stayed up for a while, but didn’t roll over. Later this evening he’ll get a bath.

Burning out.

Arrived around six this morning and enjoyed a nice view from the roof. It was still pretty muddy, so I spent a bit of time cleaning up outside. It looks a lot better now, but there is still a bit to do. The dumpster is pretty much full though. I didn’t get much else done. I helped my dad with a little trim and did some inside cleaning. We picked up some things we needed at Lowe’s and went by the marble shop. After that I was just feeling exhausted, and since tomorrow is going to be a very long day I decided to pack things up and head home. Tomorrow morning I’ll drive down to the farm and get my trailer, pick up the remaining flooring at Big Box, then head into the city to install the flooring and haul off some unused materials. Then it’s back to Columbia to drop off the trailer and tools. It will all take a while, but at least then I’ll be done and ready to start back on the farm next week.
