Lizards, Peacocks, and Chickens, Oh My!

Mommy's little bruiser showcasing a beautiful array of cuts and scrapes on his face.

Playing outside

We found a lizard in the backyard (sidenote: I am inexplicably terrified of lizards)

Lucas throwing a fit because I didn't let him get very close to it and I wouldn't let him catch it.

I finally gave in, so this is Lucas chasing the lizard with a container to catch it in.

He caught it and then he was talking to it and calling it Rafa (which is our turtle).

Lucas posing with Mommy's mother's day surprises!Having a snack after a lot of playing.

Las Vegas has a very small zoo, so we took Lucas on Memorial Day.
Here they are looking at the peacock that was showing off

Petting a goat
Looking at the chickens. At first he was kinda scared of them, but then he decided he liked them and spent a long time feeding them.
Lucas and Mommy feeding chickens.

Lucas loved dropping the feed for the chickens and watching them come close to him.

Lukie

Fell asleep in his carseat with his hand in the cheerios

allergic reaction to a dog, it's hard to see but it's swollen all around his eye

How Lucas plays Uno

Having a drink at one of his fave places: Cafe Rio

Playing in the tub

His new trick, not only does he climb up there, but he stands and he pulls pictures off the wall

He loved his cheesy mashed potatoes

Fell in a parking lot and really cut up his lip

Trying to climb out of his crib

Really, really sick little boy. He refused to drink his bottle, but he would hold it

Post #100

I think this is supposed to be monumental or something, so since this is Lucas's blog here are pictures of Lucas. That is what you came for isn't it?

Lucas wearing a football jersey, no pants, and his trademark necklaces.

Lucas eating graham crackers and frosting

Lucas sitting on the floor (sporting a blood blister on his lip)

Lucas saying, "Pictures are nice, but pick me up."

Carrying around his favorite thing from the kitchen: the collander that he ruined.

Jared and Lucas after the Rodney Atkins concert with this HUGE bus thing we found.

Lucas watching the concert

Lucas with Kate and Kacey. They were the opening act for Rodney Atkins and they were really good. Lucas LOVED them. He was dancing all over the place. This was after the concert and he was wiped, but we got a picture with them anyway.

This isn't zoomed in very much. We had free tickets and ended up in like the 10th row or something. It was an awesome concert.

It was windy, hence the way we are dressed.

Lucas without a shirt on, wearing his necklaces.

Phoenix Trip

We went down to Phoenix at the end of March and now that our camera and computer are friends again, I can post the very few pictures that I took. We spent a lot of time with Hans, Holly, and Kelsie and I got NO pictures. Also, Lucas's favorite part of the water park was the lazy river (we went around no less than 15 times), but I didn't get any pics of that either. This is him running around right before we left.

One of the only pictures of him looking at me

Running....

Running (mid-yell apparently)....

Standing Still (w0w!)

Running...

Running...

Pointing and Yelling. This is a Lucas classic.
(notice the leg) still running....

Daddy caught him. This is an attempt at a smile I believe.

Holding his tongue instead of smiling. At least the head tilt is oh-so-cute.Done running. He's awake and laying in all those pillows. I think we finally wore him out.

That night we went to a costume party for Jared's company. We were Pancho Villa and his mexican dancer girlfriend.

Picture from the party

It was a great weekend and it was so fun to see Hans and Holly and Kelsie. Thanks for all the fun guys!
