Great weekend


We had a wonderful holiday weekend with family and friends.

Saturday morning we participated in a 5k walk to raise money for Haiti. Sam ran while I walked with Donna and Ash.

Lucas was all ready in his Kstate track suit but due to rain, he decided to stay home with Papa.


This is the only way I can take a walk outside lately..

For some reason Lucas hates his stroller. No matter what mood he's in, the second his butt hits the seat he starts to cry.
Lets hope that changes soon!


Today we headed to Lawrence to visit with Brian and Sammie before they flew back to Texas.
It was wonderful to see the whole family and visit with the guys.

We also seem to have a big homebody on our hands.
Lucas is a very happy baby but if we are gone from the house too long he turns into a crank.
Without fail... the second we get home he's is coo'ing and talking to us again. Poor Jacob and Kelsi were the victims of one of his screaming fits.

Lets hope its just a stage!

Two years & Two months


Two years ago we were doing this...


And two months ago we had this...


It's been the best two years of my life and I can't wait to see what the future holds.

Little Traveler

Had a great time in Dallas..hopefully he will stay just like this for the flight home.


Free Dog

Lets just say Riley is spending the afternoon on the deck. And I will look the other way if you decide to take her.


My boys

(I know.. all my pictures/posts are of Lucas!! I will work on more diverse topics to blog about soon :-) He is just our world right now)

Saying that.. here are my two favorite people hanging out in bed watching basketball.

I love the grin

Sleepy Baby

Nap time in his big boy crib.

After some cuddle time with dad over lunch he passed out.

Mom is a little sad he's growing up so fast.

6 weeks

Fun stuff at 6 weeks:

You love to be changed..which is a good thing because you go through lots and lots of diapers.


You always sneeze and burp in twos.. it's pretty cute.

You make this face every time you poop...which is often.

Those chubby cheeks make for some really funny faces.



I'm sure you will sleep fine in the crib but mom here isn't ready for that..

You usually go to bed around 9:30pm and we don't hear a peep from you until 4am.

You love the binkie..without it you would be eating 24/7.
