this is pretty much what i see everytime i go get lucas after his nap. i love knowing he's so happy to see me, but i kinda liked it better when i wasn't worried about him falling and knocking his head all the time.

my son is a genius!

lucas is standing. already. he turns 7 months on thursday, yet he has already reached a normal 10 month milestone! he is pulling himself up on everything - bookshelves, the stairs, tables, chairs, grandma sue's dogs. and he is standing up in his crib now too!

i'll get some pictures up soon, but i don't have a computer at home right now since joel took it on tour. i'm going to the store soon to get some foam and padding for all the corners in the house, plus baby proof stuff for our kitchen cabinets.....

fourth of july!

lucas's first 7/4 was pretty low key. he has been a little crabby the past few days, as he's teething, so we really didn't want to do too much.

we went over to grandpa pat and grandma joan's house for some delicious brisket! yum! while the rest of us were chowing down on the brisket and beans, lucas starting devouring some pickles - he loves them!

he had a hard time sleeping and was up pretty late, but it was still a great fourth.









baptism

lucas got baptized on 6/29. he was a very good boy during the baptism, even if he did spit up right before we went up. he looked super cute in his baptism outfit, and he used the same blanket joel was baptized in. marcy and john are his godparents, and they threw up a fun pool party over at grandma sue's. it was a great day.
