I can't believe this time 12 weeks ago we were a family of 3.
It feels like Tiny Ched has always been with us in some respects as he's fitted right in. Mini Cheddar adores her little brother so much and to see them together melts my heart. He is fascinated by her and if he's being a bit naggy I can always rely on MC to cheer him up.
I have to say, we are truly blessed.
I'm not saying the past 12 weeks have been easy - not at all. There have been some days that have been awful due to illness,
sickness and/or wind. These days usually happen when Matt is away with work! Don't you just hate that law of sod!
However, TC definitely loves his sleep at night and I still can't believe that my exclusively breastfed boy will go nine and half hours without so much as a peep. I think it's helped establishing a night routine early on. When MC was a baby we just went with the flow and would often end up with her awake in the evening whilst we watched TV or something. She didn't start sleeping at any length for a long time. Or maybe it's the fact TC is a typical Lucas male? His Daddy, Grandad and Great Grandad all adore their sleep. A little too much sometimes!
Anyway, the fact is I love my little boy so much. He melts my heart completely. I've said before I wondered how I would have enough love for another child.
Well I do.
My heart doubled in size 12 weeks ago.
I've been
instagramming away these last 12 weeks and have managed to capture my little boys first 12 weeks. Looking at how much he's grown and developed in the last 12 weeks is amazing. It's made me realise how
quickly it goes by and how I want to
treasure these moments so much.

Bless Tiny Ched - he is growing far too quickly though, those 12 weeks have flown by! Well done on the night time thing, there is an awful lot to be said for a better night time routine second time round - we did the same and LissyLou sleeps way better than C ever did!
Awwww so cute!! It's amazing to see the changes just from one week to the next!
I can't believe he is 12 weeks old already. And just look how much growing he's done in that time. It's pretty scary how quickly they change in the beginning, isn't it?
I'm glad it's all going well and you're all happy as a family of four. I hope it all goes as well for me in a few months!

Wow that time has flown by! Gorgeous, gorgeous photos and lovely that you have that record of his early days. I really must start instagramming myself at some point!
That's unreal that he's 12 weeks already, where has that time gone! x
Fabulous photos. Love the way he has learnt to smile by the end!
Now it's my turn to oohhh and ahhh! It's lovely to see how he has changed and what a little chunk he is now (meant in the nicest way - I have one too!). You just have to love instagram, I have photographed so much because of it, I just love it xx
Wow, he has indeed changed so much in such little time. What a little bruiser now! Will miss you this wekeend. Mich x
Oh wow, he looks so "boyish" already :) And curious, and interested and smiling :) There's going to be such happy times ahead for you all! Xx
I can't believe the change in him. What a lovely little boy! Treasure the time, it goes in a heartbeat x
What a gorgeous little boy, such kissable cheeks, and such a beautiful little girl. You have a lovely blog, thank you for sharing.
Thank you :)
It's going sooooo fast this time Claire. I thought it went fast with MC but this is just crazy x
Aw thank you C :) I am looking forward to the future xx
He's a right stonker! You should see his chunky legs x
Little chunks are the best :) xx
It's flying...I'm officially scared x
Yes, get yourself on there...although be warned, it's VERY addictive x
Thanks :) He started smiling about 5-6 weeks but it's only now he holds them long enough for me to get a photo
Oh I'm sure it will honey. It goes so much more quickly with your second though so make sure you savour every moment. I thought it went quick with MC but this is unreal xx
I'm going to keep up a record week by week of his first year. I did the same with MC but I wasn't blogging then.
Thanks hun. I really can't believe how much quicker it goes second time around xx
What a happy looking little boy he is. I'm not surprised your heart as doubled in size looking at those chuchy cheeks. It's looks like MC is really cherishing her big sis role too :) x
You are blessed with two absolutely gorgeous children - no greater joy than that - hope you get some rest soon :)
