5 months of Lukey!
Some of my favorite things from this month:
+ Luke has been grabbing everything and I have been loving watching him figure out how to use his hands.
+His scrunchy nose with his big smiles are the best.
+ If he's upset, I can always get him to laugh just by having a dog walk by him. He loves them so dang much. The dogs can't look at Luke without him giving them the biggest giggles.
+ Luke had his first Fourth of July which is like a 2 week event it feels these days, lol. But we got him some headphones for them and they were just about the cutest things ever on a baby!
Things I've learned this month:
+ Motherhood is such an ebb and flow. Like you figure something out and then 2 days later something changes and what you figured out no longer works, lol. It can be frustrating, but I also think it's a beautiful reminder to have faith, let go, and pray a lot ツ The more I push back, the more I stress and feel like I'm losing my mind. I love that Luke teaches me to slow down, listen to what he needs, and to trust my instincts and my faith more than Google. I'm a better person for it.
+ You can still do the things you love. It took me some time to learn how to still do the things that I love like making sourdough bread and blogging. I gave myself a lot of grace while our life transitioned, and now we're figuring out how to do life with a baby and also do the things I/we still love to do. And a lot of things I love to do, Luke can do with me whether it's bouncing by our side or hanging out in his carrier. And it's so fun to watch him be curious and see the world through his eyes. And the coolest part is that they inspire you even more to pursue the things you love.
