finishing school and late nights

The last few days have been interesting for us Lucks. Robert spent the last few days churning out a long paper and a final exam, which he finished at the very last second. This gave me a taste of exactly what being a stay at home mom with no one else around was really like...and let me tell you, that's going to take some getting used to! Robert has been crucial in my ability to calmly figure out parenthood, and the days he was MIA were a wake up call for me for sure. BUT, there is light at the end of the tunnel and he's now enjoying free time before the bar class starts.

Our sweet son decided that the night before the paper was due would be the hardest yet. He decided to have gas pains, which, since I hadn't quite experienced them yet, made me almost rush him to the hospital. Gas pains truly sound like his hand has been cut off, and to a new mommy, they freaked me out. We patiently helped him through 1am to 4am of gas pains and he spent the next day sleeping it off.
