Christmas 2009

What a special day for us....Lucas' first Christmas and it was a white one. We got about 4 inches of snow on Christmas Eve. Then, Lucas gave us the best gift ever....he slept through the night until 8:00 am! That was awesome!!

Santa brought Lucas a little baseball set and he is already swinging at the ball. His family and friends spoiled him with toys, clothes, books, and games. He unwrapped his own packages too (at least he would get them started, but then would get distracted with the next one). Later, he zoomed around the house in his walker. Sam and I enjoyed breakfast in bed then movies on the couch and homemade pizza for lunch. Tanya came to visit and we watched another movie. It was such a relaxing, special day. We hope yours was as enjoyable as ours.

He wants to walk so bad...

Poor thing has been coming home with bumps and bruises on his face. They tell us he is climbing up into the upper shelves and trying so hard to stand and walk. The daycare teachers thought they might have a solution. Check it out!!

Playing Catch Up...

Time tends to get away from us. We haven't kept up with the pics like we have hoped. This is a handful of pics from November plus the crawl video we promised.













It is a large file, please be patient as it prepares for download.

He's on the move!

For about 2 weeks now, Lucas has been on his hands and knees trying to figure out the crawling thing. He's squirming, lunging, and wriggling around. Well today was the day. He figured it out this morning. He crawled about 8 feet across the floor trying to get a red cone. We'll post a video soon.

Happy 1st Halloween!!

We had a great time hanging out with Lucas' cousin Jace. The whole family went out to see my brother and his family. Mom got to hang out for a bit before heading back to take care of Grandpa. All good times were to be had. Here are a few pics.

I am a big boy now!!

We started Lucas on a little bit of rice cereal with his feedings now. He has been so active that the breast milk is just not cutting it any more. Funny pics below.
Look at me Grandma...I am a big boy now. Well, maybe not quite yet.
