Don't get me started....

I know it is so pathetic that I haven't posted in a month. Terrible. Also terrible the lack of photos that this post will have. But stories! I have stories for you!

So the other day, I was in the hallway, and Lucas was walking from his room to the living room. He almost made it past the bathroom door, but did a double take and backed up to walk into the bathroom. He pulled his little potty (which he doesn't use yet) next to the sink, pulled a cup off the sink, turned on the water, filled up the cup, and started chugging. He only stopped to look at me looking at him with water dumping all over his belly and the faucet on full blast to laugh hysterically.

Lucas is quite the puzzle fanatic, too. He dumps the pieces of the puzzle out, and compares each piece to the board and really thinks....really really hard....and then when he puts it in just right, he nods his head and moves on to the next one. So smart!!!

No big changes on the talking front. He can say mommy, loddy doddy (daddy), oh wow, hi, and no. I can't wait until his funny little babbles turn into real sentences so I know what is going on in that head!

I do know what is going on outside that head....tons of hair! Sometimes he looks a little Donald Trumpy. If only he didn't hate getting his hair cut so much, he wouldn't look like such a little ragamuffin. His hair has just about lost any red that it had, and is just straight up blonde. He is supreme. And handsome. But I digress.

No more bottles at bed-time! Our biggest little one just gets a few moments of snuggley togetherness and then I heave him over the side of the crib and he snuggles his pillow and that is it! Bedtime! I just don't advise trying this without the pillow. He really loves it.

We decorated the Christmas tree today, and Lucas still is a little concerned about having a tree inside. He keeps on picking up the needles off the floor and trying to put them in the vacuum cleaner. I love that. He keeps taking off the ornaments and then putting them up and marveling at his work. Genius!

I promise I'll try to put up some more photos.
