Lucas Camilo

Burke’s parents spent nearly a week in Washington DC and got in a lot of quality Lucas time while Krista was away.  For his part Lucas had a great time, from singing the Na-Na-Na song, to taking strolls around the neighborhood, to sitting outside as Nonna gardened, to playing with eye glasses, watches, suction tubes … just about anything other than actual toys.

The trip to the farmers market over the weekend was a particular highlight, as was taking naps in both grandparents’ arms.  Burke got to take some time off from work so that the family could hang out together.  Nonna also taught Lucas the wonders of prunes, which can help both big people as well as a little dude who just started taking in all sorts of new foods.

Krista missed Lucas a lot but every time she called Burke assured her that Lucas missed her too but that the proverbial fort was being held down.  We often put on the speaker phone and let Lucas chew on it and smile as his mommy talked away..
