lucas is 1!
(late in posting, but the holidays are busy!)
i cannot believe that a year has passed and lucas is 1! so much has happened this year, and it all seems to have flown by. at 1, he can walk, say 3 words (doggy, kitty and ducky), sort of feed himself, give kisses (when he wants to) -- and he just has this happy and sweet personality. my life would feel really empty without him.
for his birthday party, we had people over to our house for snacks, some playing, cake and presents. it was a really fun afternoon!
lots of presents!
aunt marcy and aunt natalie
will brought his dog champ over. he and lucas stared at each other through the glass door a lot.
it's a dino cake!
chomp! cake is good!
family photo!
new wagon and new whistle. what a great birthday!

my dad turned 50 on 12/13. what an old man!
we had a great birthday party for him at my parent's house. everybody gave dad $100 toward new golf clubs, but we each did it in a unique way. marcy and john made him a big 'happy gilmore' style check. jackson gave him golf clothes with "cart money" in the pockets. joel and i gave him a flower with a 'caddyshack' quote on the pot. natalie gave him an empty box (cause he'll get nothing and like it!) and mom gave him a basket of 'greens.' (which included jelly bellies, which he's obsessed with).
mom and marcy made some really awesome golf travel posters. for dinner we had a delicious italian medley of pastas, and natalie and will brought out the big guns with gelato and cake.
it was such a fun birthday party!

walking!
walking!, originally uploaded by alibean731.
we've got a walker in our house!
lucas is walking more and more instead of crawling. he doesn't even seem to realize that he's doing it!
it gets steadier every day. such a big boy!

thanksgiving
what a delicious holiday! the family first ate at the kothe household for a late lunch, then we were at the nihleans for dinner. this really is a great holiday for lucas, because he can fully participate! all of the food is fairly soft and mushy so he can eat everything - which he did. and food at both houses was so good!
lucas also truly enjoyed showing off his new, tentative walking ability as well as chasing after some kitties. check video here.
unfortunately, the holiday weekend did not come without some hiccups. with the new found ability to walk, there also comes some bumps in the road. or, on his head. lucas keeps knocking himself in the same spot on his forehead :(.
and this is also lucas's first time being sick. he's had a cold since friday. its mostly just a stuffy nose, but when you're 11 months old and can't blow your nose, that really sucks.
this morning he woke up pretty crabby. we were eating breakfast when all of a sudden he sneezed mid-bite. i was expecting him to be upset afterward, but he got a big grin on his face because he had sneezed out the snot that was making it hard to breathe. and, when i say sneezed it out, i mean he sneezed it ALL out:
i was laughing so hard when this happened - and lucas was happy too. all that pressure that was building up was finally alleviated! his nose is still runny, but i hope it's getting better.
