Just a few more pictures

Saturday Lucas helped Papa pack the car with donations for the Veterans Home. He's a little stinker!

Lucas also enjoys painting. Hopefully he will get Daddy's

artistic genes. Mommy can only draw stick people.

Off to School

That's right, Lucas is already off to high school. Where has the time gone? Actually, Lucas will be going to Toddler Time at the high school next month. He will be helping out the students enrolled in the Child Development class. The students will lead activities for Lucas and the other toddlers. I'm excited about this experience, because I remember doing this when I was in Child Development, 11 years ago! Geez, where has the time gone?!

'Tis the season...

Few words, lots of pictures aka Chicago 2009!

Such a Stinker: Second Edition

Remember this? Well, I am currently sitting in the office checking my email and asked Lucas to feed Pacey. I start hearing similar sounds as before. I yell at Lucas to stop and the response I get is "Noooooo, Mommy I playing!" He really is a stinker. Now off to clean up the kitchen.

LeAvEs....

Our backyard is leaf heaven. Brian did some raking on Thursday, but by today it was covered again. Lucas and I headed outside to rake and play this morning. Here are a few shots of him jumping in the leaves.

Trick or Treat!

A group of us meet at a friends house to trick or treat. The dads stayed home passed out candy and drank some beers. The moms and the kids went door to door gathering candy. It was a nice night except for a cold wind. Lucas did "okay." He had a few meltdowns, nothing a sucker couldn't fix though. He become frustrated when he couldn't go inside someones house, especially if they had a dog. He loved watching all the big kids in costumes and riding in the wagon.
