We had a great first father's day, went to Dallas for the weekend with my parents and sister. Lachlan got in three swims, no surprise, and seems to be enjoying the water more each time. Jason could not be happier! He is talking more, I will see about getting a little video of his "thoughts" one day soon! Lately, we have been struggling with the nursing! Seems as though little Lockie is enjoying his daytime feedings with Daddy so much, be wants the bottle all the time (except during the night). Maybe someone has some idea of how hard it is to do things in a traditional, natural, way and work at the same time. It is really easy. No, it really tests the will! Lockie and I are having a battle of wills at the moment, bottle vs. breast! So I have to really soul search: how important is breastfeeding? how important is working? do I even want to be home full-time? I will not succumb to formula feeding, he gets his Mommy's milk, full-time, but, bottles be damned! And Jason does such a great job at home with him, the walk and talk and play together. But I know life with baby is not all smiles and naps. Lockie has a short fuse and a scream that would could trigger a visit from CPS if someone didn't realize, NO WE AREN'T HURTING HIM, he just wants to be fed NOW! Other thoughts, I am hoping we can get a few photos up of the cousins, hint,hint, Nelson, Robert, & Isabelle...Are you ok to see yourselves here, next to Lockie??(BTW, we love your little letters, and will keep them always, it is so nice to know, and he will love to know oneday, how much you loved him, how you were so excited to see him, before he was even born!)
