Growing UP!

A lot of changes are taking place in our house. Let us not forget, in the excitement of Baby #2 on the way that Baby #1 (Lucas) is GROWING UP! Wow! We are approaching the 18 month mark (4-4-11) and I just can't believe the changes he's making!! Lucas LOVES to dance! He loves music and just being active. He is like his mother (as my nickname from about his age was SQUIRT because I never walked anywhere, I went from crawling to running and that is what he does too) always on the go! He loves Veggie Tales and I am pretty certain that he said Bob yesterday! LOL

Here's a little video of him dancing.

He is also into doing EVERYTHING that we do, himself! He is so big and loves to help out. He wants to get his own milk out, eat his own food, he tries to put on his own socks (although still unsuccessful) and he wants to vacuum when I do! Here he is helping daddy nail some loose nails down on our balcony.

He has also FINALLY learned how to drink out of a regular sippy cup. He was a champ at the straw cup so early on, however we've been trying to transition him to a regular one for months now and he couldn't quite get the "Tippy High" concept! FINALLY on St. Patrick's Day he accomplished this great feat and has been rockin' the regular sippy cup every since!

For the most part, Lucas is a laid-back active little 18 month old who loves to sing and dance and ESPECIALLY splash in the tub!! He is the joy of our life and we love him so much!! Oh...and he nearly ALWAYS has a remote in his hand :)
