September 18, 2013 (a little delayed)

Dear Lorenzo,
You are already 13lbs 9oz!  You are growing so big, so fast.  I can’t keep up.  You are finally, now as of this past weekend, much less of the tiny baby who nuzzled and ate and slept and pooped.  You are alert more and more, discovering your hands and feet.  You love to grab at things – toys, necklaces, Lucia’s hair.  You are my healthy, growing boy.  Your smiles are so beautiful, they light up your whole face.  You smile with every muscle in your face.  You glow.  You make anyone smile back at you even wider.  You are rolling side to side, can’t wait to be mobile.  Lucia loves to show you toys, dangle them in your face for you to grab.  You love your activity mat, getting down on the floor.  You love to use the floor gym at Miss Cassandra’s.  You are laughing, giggling, starting to make more sounds.  You had your first ear infection, which was awful.  You were obviously in pain, had low fevers.  I hated to see you suffer.  Your first round of antibiotics, I hope this isn’t the start of a trend here.  Lucia had chronic infections and had to have tubes put in her ears at 18 months.  I hope you don’t but if you do it’s ok, too.  You are generally happy and easygoing if you are healthy.  We are still breastfeeding, you have a healthy appetite.  I’m pumping at work and always have more than enough milk for you to enjoy the next day.  Your hair is so cute, you still have your little Mohawk, all the way down the back of your head, so thin in front but big puff of Mohawk on the top.  You are such a cute baby, so full of giggle and cuddles.  I miss you all day and adjusting to being back at work has been so sad.  I am always so happy to see you and Lucia after a long day.
I love you, my little boy!

Love, mama
