&lt;p&gt;Lukas middle name is James. I was just curious, because my oldest daughter full name is ALexis brandy nicole. When I moved here last year, we found ourself surrounded by 3 other alexis&amp;#39;s and ...well their second names are nicole. Off by one name but still. One of those got to be her best friend. Good that you have your mom around. My Family lives in germany. THey know Lukas only by pictures so far. I hope to be able to fly over to germany next year. I was planning to go for christmas but that was before Lukas was born. &lt;/p&gt;

His middle name is Christopher. We are still trying to figure out a schedule, he likes to eat more during the night, so I&amp;#39;ve been trying to keep him more during the day. I had my mom watch him for me yesterday so I could get groceries and other household things like cat litter, ect............ I only had the big belly too!
