Growing and growing (16 Months)

Some days I wonder where my baby went...Lucas is growing up so fast!  He has fully transitioned to the toddler room at daycare and is learning so much every day.  He comes home with amazing pieces of art....and bags full of dirty clothes.  He is busy!

This past weekend we went to the Butterfly Pavilion.  He loved looking at the insects and fish....and the drains (why does he love drains so much?!)



 
 
Lucas also stays busy in the kitchen "helping".  Looks like he is going to take after auntie...
 



16 Months....so looking forward to the holidays and seeing family!

Happy Fall and My Favorite Things!

Lucas is really developing quite a personality and it is so much fun to watch him every day!  He absolutely LOVES to read and can't get enough of books right now.  He is also adding lots of new words - he loves to say uh-oh after he throws something on the floor (usually food!) and says ball, car, cat, cow, momma and dada.  We are still waiting for the "no!" to come.
 
 
Lucas also loves his bath time.  He will splish and splash until the bathroom floor (and mommy and daddy) is completely soaked.  We don't mind....he has so much fun!

 
Two weeks ago, Lucas had his first haircut.  He didn't REALLY need one....but just got a little trim.  He sat very nice and didn't wiggle too much!

 
Pumpkin carving was a great success and Lucas dug right in!
 


 
We have had a gorgeous fall and last weekend enjoyed a beautiful walk at the Botanical Gardens.  Lucas still sits nice in his stroller (which I know won't last too much longer....).



 
 
Another great Halloween in our neighborhood....the kids looked so great all dressed up.  Next year, we want to pick a theme for the kids' costumes.  The women are thinking Wizard of Oz and the men are voting for Lord of the Rings.  I think the women will win!
 



Happy Halloween!
