Happy Easter

Happy Easter everyone! We had a great easter. We went to Virginia to visit with family and celebrate Easter. The easter bunny brought Lucas lots of goodies! He got a watering can/shovel/rake set, a book, a tiny magnadoodle, bubbles, animal crackers, cookies, and a new sippy cup. The easter bunny also brought him some colored eggs that were decorated with Mickey Mouse! Lucas had a blast hunting easter eggs but, didn't understand about putting them in his basket. He quickly got the hang of it. He did try to eat the eggs a few times but, we would hurry and substitue the real egg for a plastic one. All in all it was a great Easter!

Weekend Fun!

We had a great weekend! Since it rained and was pretty dreary all day Saturday we wanted to do something today and get out of the house. We went to Dan Nicholas Park . We took Lucas there before but, he was about 6 months old so he didn't really get to interact with the animals or the rides. He had a great time talking to the animals, riding the carosel and train, and playing on the playground. Here are some pictures we took.

Yay for Nice Weather!

The weather was beautiful yesterday. Sunny and 68! Lucas and I enjoyed some time at the park. It was so nice after having all that cold weather last week. Lucas loves the outdoors and goes to his stroller and whines because he knows thats his ride to the park. Its so cute! He's still a bit unsteady on his feet when walking outside but, after a few minutes he gets the hang of it and is running from mommy. He loves to try to make new friends and will walk up to almost any child his size and just smile at them. He tries to "talk" to them but, they have no idea what he's saying and usually just stand and stare at him or walk away. He's not the least bit bashful.

Love the Baby

Lucas is growing up so fast and learning neat, new things each day. This week he has learned "Love the Baby". We're able to see how gentle and sweet he can be. He takes his Teddy, Mickey Mouse, or anything stuffed really and when I say "Lucas love the baby" he will cuddle it tight and hug it close. Then he gives it to me to "love" and back and forth. We play this game daily and it just melts my heart away.

Lucas 1st Birthday!

Lucas celebrated his first birthday on Saturday February 9th, 2008. We had a little party for him at Rollie Pollies in Mooresville and he had a blast. All of his little friends were there along with our family friends and he got such cool, nice gifts. He is such a lucky little boy. We can't believe how fast the past year has gone by. Our little man is growing up!

Finally!

Here is a video of Lucas walking. Sorry it took so long we've been super busy!

Lucas's New Haircut

We took Lucas for his second haircut on Tuesday after much convincing Daddy that he was a little boy and NEEDED it cut. It is a little shorter than we really wanted it and we do miss his curls but, it is hair afterall and it will grow back.
