6 weeks and -30 lbs

Lucas is 6 weeks old today which means I'm halfway through my maternity leave from work. WHAT? Half way!? I can not believe I'll be heading back to work in 6 weeks. I just hope the next 6 weeks don't go by as fast as the first. I know I'm super lucky to be taking the full 12, I can not imagine only getting 6 or even 8.

Had my 6 week postnatal check up today and all was well. I'm down 30 lbs and have about 10 more to go to get back to where I started this journey at. The first 30 honestly dropped off after the first 2 weeks or so and the scale hasn't budged much since then. I got the ok to exercise at my checkup today and hope that'll help shed the last of the pounds and some. However, I have no idea when I'll fit exercise into my daily schedule.

We also celebrated the 6 week mark with the purchase of the Ergo baby carrier. I'm hoping to use this for lots of long walks on a trail I walked throughout pregnant. I did a lot of looking around and asking for recommendations on carriers and settled on this one. I'll let you know how I end up liking it.

Here is a pic of Luke from this past Saturday. He was supper excited the Ags brought home a win ;)

He is awake more now between feedings and smiling more and more. He is starting to babble a bit and I'm anxiously awaiting a laugh.
