It appears that my genius child is on the fast track to crawling. I believe that my days of setting him down and walking away are now numbered

…and then we had a dinner guest join us at the table! Every night now, Lucas sits in his highchair at the table with us for dinner. Not too long now and he’ll get something other than milk

He got his shots at his 4 month well visit at the doctor so we spent all day Monday in our jammies cuddling in the big bed and watching the DVR and taking baby Tylenol every 4 hours (a little but for baby, a lot a bit for mommy).

Lucas thought diaper changes were too easy, so he started rolling over when we set him down. Thoughtful of him to add a new challenge to a poopy diaper

Uncle Miguel bought Lucas an “Oball” that he loooooooves. In fact, he loves it so much that he plays with it, sleeps with it, and we had to find a way to attach it to his car seat so he can travel with it. If we ever loose this, we’re in trouble

Best. Sheets. Ever. (baby not included). Have you ever tried to change a crib sheet in the middle of the night? Or at 2 o’clock in the daylight? Doesn’t matter when it is, you have to take everything out of the crib and the sides, physically pull the whole mattress out, and then change the sheet and try to get the mattress in without shifting the bedskirt or the baby monitor sensor that goes below our mattress. It’s a 2 person job. But then I found this gem that changed my life. It’s a big pocket that goes around the whole mattress with a zipper around the outside. Now all I do is reach in the crib, unzip the top and zip a new one on. Why doesn’t anyone ever gift these at baby showers?! I’m giving it every time now. Moms: after the first time you’re forced to change a crib sheet in the middle of the night, do yourself a favor.

I started scrapbooking again! I’m still looking for a desk, but that hasn’t stopped me from spending some quality time doing what I love alone during nap times.
Why have I never learned of these sheets?!!
Fantastic!!! I love you guys! Greetings from sunny San Diego to the 3 Rivas 🙂
