STRONG!

Luca is holding his head up for the most part, and we have tummy time every day. Here he is holding his head up at tummy time.

Sleeping in mommy's arms

Luca loves to be held. He falls asleep very well in my arms.

Labor Day Picnic

Rob, Luca and I went to Ally Pond park in Queens on Labor Day to have a picnic. It was a nice sunny day, and there was lots of people watching to do. Ally Pond is a large park with forests to walk thru and grass to sit on. It's no Central Park, but it's a nice place to go in Queens!!!

My First Bath––3 weeks old

Yesterday Luca had his first real bath. He loved it. He stared out the window most of the time, but wasn't bothered by water being poured over his head at all. Then I dressed him in this super cute jumpsuit that Jenny Tunick gave him.
He seems to be holding his head up on his own for long periods of time, and every once in a while we'll get a coo and a non-gasy smile (I swear).

Granzie's first visit

August 30th, 2006
Luca's umbilical cord fell off yesterday. Now we can give him a real bath. Here are 2 photos of Luca and Daddy, taken before Rob left for work yesterday.
Granzie (Sara) had a good week of bonding with Luca. Here she is holding him.....a lot. We had our very first picnic in Queens together, and we also ventured out to dinner at a local Italian restaurant and took Luca with us. He slept thru the whole thing. What a good boy!!!!
Grandma (Barbara) stopped bye and we took this photo. Luca loves his grandparents!

8 days old!
