So today is the day. Lucas has been thrilled for the past week, looking forward to this big day. He wanted to wear his 'choo choo' train shirt and show his new friends.
His story changed a little bit when it was time to leave him at school. When I started to leave with Elliott, and I said that I would see him later, Lucas grabbed my leg and said, "Mom, I could go home with you, that's ok." He did not cry, but I wanted to!

Where have I been!??!?!?!?
Busy. You know, two kids and working can keep your hands full. Of course, whenever I say that, I think of Grandmom with 8 kids, and her immaculate house and I just check myself. Seriously.
OK, so I am about to blast you with all kinds of info to make up for me totally ignoring you for so very long. Let's see, our house got broken into and that makes me really mad. Like really, really, really, really mad. But soon I will get over it. I think.
Our cameras and computers and everything got stolen, so now I got a camera and I am ready to start with the photos again. I also broke my phone with the app to upload photos, so I couldn't post that way either. Excuses, excuses. But I'm back, I swear!!
I thought you might like a list of updates. Let's start with the little chubs, Elliott. Here we go in no particular....
Elliott is crawling, and standing, and cruising all over the place.
He is eating. A lot. So much. All the time. Anything he can grab.
Elliott sleeps all night, and has six teeth, four on the bottom, and two little vampire teeth. Which is hysterical to see, but you can rarely catch a glimpse because he is obsessed with his pacifier.
Lucas, on the other hand, has given up the pacifier!!!! It is amazing. He just decided one day that he didn't want it anymore. He has also visited the dentist and got a glowing report and has become addicted to flossing. All of his pants are getting too small and he is way to kind for words. Seriously.
Everyone says that the boys look just like each other, but I would like to illuminate how very different they are.
For one, Lucas was a snuggler cuddlebug since day one. Elliott is just now coming around to the coziness, but I am enjoying every moment of his awakening to the snuggle time.
Lucas would enter a room and just play, safely. Elliott rolls on in, finds the metal sharp objects, electrical outlets, and plastic bags and looks to see if anyone could catch him before he does something dangerous.
Lucas would eat anything, and a lot of it. Oh, ok, so does Elliott.
We've had some great visits with grandparents, and we took a trip to VA to see the bampomps and got a blizzard!! Lucas talks about it often, especially since we are reading the SIXTH Little House book. What three year old do you know who is obsessed with the prairie??? Lucas.
OK, enough talking...photos!!!

This kid!!
We just heard a house alarm blaring down the street. I looked out the window, and the alarm was super loud.
Lucas looked at me, super excited, and said, "don't worry mom, I think that's the ice cream truck!"
I wish I were 3 1/2!!!

Quick quotes
In the middle of lunch, Lucas' eyes light up.
Mom! When I get big, I can go to school AND be a barber!!! Both if those things at the same time!!!
Watching the superbowl, a player dropped the ball.
Ben and I got a little dramatic.
Lucas: oh no. He dropped it? Oh, that breaks my blood. Wait. That breaks my muscles? My bones?
Me: you mean it breaks your heart?
Lucas: yeah, it broke my blood because it was so sad for that guy.
