Corn Maze

So it took some searching, but yes, there is a corn maze in Texas. It is located in Hondo, which is about 30 miles southwest of San Antonio. In true Texas fashion the maze was the image of country music legend George Strait (who actually lives in San Antonio...)
We are so used to bundling up for corn mazes in October, but the warm Texas weather allowed us to enjoy the maze in short-sleeve shirts. Lucas was nice and cozy in the Bjorn on Daddy's chest, so he slept through the whole thing.

Two Months

It was bright outside, so Lucas was squinting and scowling in every picture and we couldn't get him to smile.

But as soon as we came inside and Daddy pulled out his camera-phone:
At his two-month check-up with the pediatrician,
weight: 13 lb 3 oz
height: 23.75 in
head circumference: 15.75 in
He is in the 75th percentile for all three.

Special thanks to my talented friend Katy for the photos.

Crib

I finally got Lucas' crib bedding all set up in his room. I found a lot of stuff at Burlington Coat Factory. It was awesome!

Of course I have to show off the cute sleeping baby and the quilt that my sister Lauren made for him.

Look at the detail on this!

She did the eyes, nose, and feet by hand...

I love my sister so much. She knows about my secret obsession with dinosaur-themed baby stuff and how hard it is to find. She noticed it when we had fun drooling over some baby clothes in The Gap. :)

She is so talented and we really appreciate all of the hard work she put into this fabulous crib quilt, especially since she was preparing for her own little bundle of joy.

Thanks Auntie Lauren!!
