Lucas is in a really good mood this morning ☺His dad noticed it right away. When Desmond was holding him, he’s all “Look at you all smiley!” I think this is the first time we’ve seen him smile. 🥹
When he wakes up without crying 🥹He’s just waking up voluntarily. I’m always like “Good morning, my baby.” 💋 He is so cute! 🥹🥹🥹
I guess I don’t know how to enjoy having a break from looking after my babyWe’re staying at my sister’s and she tells me to rest while I can, but I can’t when I’m apart from Lucas for long. It’s not a matter of not being sure he’s in the right hands. I trust my sister fully to take good care of him. It’s just me being... See More »
Bit of an awkward conversation with my mom and sis about my estranged spouseBut they both got to asking about her. All asking if she’s met my baby Lucas yet, which she has… But then my mom goes and says she’s welcome back into the family should she want to come. My sister basically said the same, that Adelina can come back... See More »
This cracked me up 😂The singer for my sister’s old band who took her place after she left while she’s visiting at my sister’s pad and meeting my newborn son: (Quote) 🤣🤣🤣
I got to my sister’s pad to hang out and the singer of her old band is there 😯The one who took her place after she left the band. It’s always intriguing when those two hang out. Makes me wonder if they’re going to make music together again. 👀 She got to meet my baby, anyway. ☺
We’ve just been taking turns holding him all morningOur little son. 🥹 We’ll probably go hang out at my sister’s here soon, but I love how we can just spend hours loving on our little Lucas. He’s too precious. 💖
I’m so happy my man can stay with me and our baby for the next three daysI’m sure Lucas will be happy too. Daddy’s home. 🤗
My nieces holding my baby ☺Their cousin. It looks so cute! They’re 11 and 9, but they know to be extra careful while holding him, and they have been. They both adore him already. There’s a pretty big age gap, but I can’t wait to see how they get along with Lucas as he grows... See More »
It’s incredible how some things come naturally even to newbornsMy sister was holding my baby Lucas and was showing me the various natural reflexes infants have. For example, she held Lucas by his underarms and dragged his feet along a surface and he started moving his legs forward one after the other — the... See More »
Apparently there were two dogs fighting in my neighborhoodI heard a lot of not-too-distant barking while I was inside that went for a bit. This was constant barking from two dogs, but I figured must've been one of the neighbor dogs barking at something. A few minutes later, I took my baby outside just to... See More »
I always make sure to hand Lucas off to Desmond when he comes homeNot to give him a turn with looking after him. Just so he can spend some time with his son. Des told me he thinks about us all day while he’s working. 🥺 If only he could have another week off. He has the PTO hours for it, but as always, he wants to s... See More »
Soothing him during the day is so much easier than I thought it would beI think I've nailed the comfort holding with Lucas. 🤱 I'm always sure to keep him nice and snug to make him feel like he's still back in his momma. It brings me great comfort too keeping him in my arms. I can't hold my little love close enough.... See More »
Last day of work for Desmond ☺Thank goodness he has Friday off this week, then he can have three full days with me and our son. I’ve been telling Lucas one more day, then daddy’s home. 🥹
My baby’s all watching me eat 😂I’m at my sister’s eating a barbecue chicken wrap she cooked for us while holding Lucas and I’ve noticed whenever I’m taking a bite, he’ll just stare. It’s like he’s witnessing actual eating for the first time and is a mix of intrigued and confused... See More »
My man has Friday off this week 😄He took all last week off to have time with our newborn baby but went back to work this week. Unfortunately, he’ll only get to spend full days with us on weekends now. But this means he’ll get to have an extra day this weekend, and that makes me... See More »
I can't believe he's been missing all my lifeI never thought I'd be a mother. Now that I am, I can't imagine my life without Lucas. He's filled a void in me I didn't even know I had. To think now is only the beginning. But I'm happy it is. I don't want to waist a single moment without my son.
He knows when he’s with his momma 🥹He’ll look right at me for the longest time. Desmond, my sister and my parents have told me he never looks in their eyes for very long. Only me. He really knows. I’ll be your whole world, son. I’ll be everything I need to be to keep you happy and... See More »
I’ve found that my little babe is really calm when we’re at my sister’s 😯We’re back to hanging out at my sister’s pad for the evenings as we usually do during the summer. Of course, now we have Lucas with us and he is always nothing but chill whenever I have him by the pool in a lounge chair. Does he already find it as... See More »
At least Desmond’s workplace is only a short drive awaySo he can come home on his lunch breaks and spend the whole time with Lucas. 🥹
Yesterday some creep commented on a post I made about my babyAsking if he could call me momma. Ugh... I suppose pervy idiots leaving comments like that was inevitable, but I mopped the floor with him then he deleted all his comments and blocked me. You want to act like a piece of shit, you're gonna get treated... See More »
I wish Desmond was hereI feel bad that he has to miss out on every precious moment with our baby. I’m trying not to be sad but it’s hard.
Desmond goes back to work today 😞His paternity leave is over, I guess. It’ll just be me and Lucas at home now. I’ll miss having him around all day with our son.
My baby can already sense that I’m his mommaWe’ve been at my sister’s place all day and my sister’s been doing the bulk of the caring for Lucas for me today. But after a while, he starts to get a little fussy. That is until I’m around. He knows. I get a bit of separation anxiety when I’m not... See More »
Lucas is being real vocal today ☺He’s just making his little sounds while looking at me. It’s like he’s trying to talk to me, it’s so cute. We’re still at my sister’s pad just chilling by the pool. Wonder if it’s the nice sunny day making him so chatty? 🤭
