Wow!

Yes, I said wow! Today has been amazing so far! After weeks of tummy upset and fussiness resulting in an overtired Lucas unable to sleep during the day unless taken out in the stroller, the wee laddie is deep in his third nap of the day, and has been a pleasure to put down (instead of the overtired bear that he can often be during the transfer from mummy or daddy's loving arms to crib). He also seems to be taking the process of getting zipped into his snowsuit and strapped into the stroller (and then out again) in stride now. There was still some crying this morning but just a little bit. And best of all, when we went inside a store, Lucas just chilled out and made friendly with the staff. This is a big deal because on previous outings, he'd be seemingly asleep and peaceful outside and then, the minute we were inside, he'd start screaming -- earning me a couple of filthy looks. Today, he just sucked on his soother as the nice grandmotherly shop lady cooed at him. Aww! What a sweet little boy!
