Happy Belated 9 month Post!

We went to the doctor last week for Lucas's nine month old check up and we have a chunky monkey on our hands...

Mr. Man is 20.5 pounds and 76cm long

He has just starting wiggling, there really is no other words to describe how he crawls, just sort of army crawl wiggles to get where he wants to go... although the only motivation we can use to get him to move is our cell phones and the remote controls!  He is truely his father's son!

A pro at eating dry products on his own- cheerios and toast are his favorites... Lucas only loses one in ten now as opposed to when he first started which was only getting one in ten to his mouth!

Loves to drink water out of the cup like a big boy, and thinks its absolutely hilarious.

Still likes to fake laugh, which in turn makes him laugh for real... so funny!

Has really started to interact with Bella, although she has learned to sit just outside his reach! 

Is getting his two top teeth, which will bring us up to four.  The past week has been rough on Lucas and I, as they were really bothering him, and Joon was under some tight deadlines at work so it was just L and I struggling though!  Poor guy would wake up crying and go to sleep crying!  I think he has cried more this week than he has since he was born!

Loves to "walk" on our fingers everywhere, and has mastered going up the stairs if we are holding his hands...

Has learned to pull all his toys out of the toy basket, play with each one for a bit before checking out the next one.  In turn, he is also pulling himself up on said toy basket... I am waiting for the day when he face plants into the edge! 

Lucas also has learned how to pull out his little blocks out of the block containers one by one, and its so great to see him figure out how to pull them out, pass them from hand to hand, put the block down and then on to the next one...

Very inconsistent with waving bye bye and clap clap... totally random at this point but so cute when he does

Has started to show how attached to mommy he is;  if I leave a room or he can't see me, he cries and cries until I come back... I am not thrilled with this, but we are working through it!

Learning to drink from a sippy cup... still not quite sure on the concept of sucking from the sippy, and instead is content to chew on the end!

That's all I can think of, but he is certainly changing each and every day!  Every day is an adventure!

Trouble with a capital T!!!

I think we have a mischevious little charmer on our hands!  Lucas always looks like he is trying to figure things out- how they work, what it is, where it comes from... doesn't matter what we are doing, he is thinking!  This is pre-bath time and he was desperate to see what was going happening on the other side of the tub! 

Fun on the swings!!

Here are a few pictures of Lucas when we went to the park the first time... He LOVED the swings, as you can see by the cute creeper expressions he has on his face! These are from a while ago... Father's Day to be exact!

We had a low key day of breakfast at home, walk through the park with Bella and the fam, and ended up at the park for a swing! Although we got rained out and high tailed it to starbucks for an afternoon coffee-cap! All around great day, and a belated Father's Day to the new dad! Happy father's day babe!

The L-Man is crawling in a weird tadpole kind of way!

So Lucas is finally starting to be mobile, but not in the traditional sense!  He does this weird army crawl/ tadpole swim where he uses a lot of energy but doesn't get particularily far fast.  However, he gets an A+++ for effort and cuteness, because it is definitely hilarious!!

Here are a few videos of him in the last few!

Fabulous Friday!

Yup it's finally the weekend again! And we had some big news this week... We bought a new house!! We are building a new place that should be ready in May-ish of next year... Only downside is that our deposit with the builder left things a bit tight! So we are looking for fun free ways to enjoy the weekend! A few brunch dates ( at home to save $$) and a few walks with the fan to enjoy what little we have left of summer!

Joon is off next week, and we are having a wonderful little staycation!!

Happy Friday!!

Marvelous Monday!!

Today was definitely far from a marvelous day, as Lucas had a very rough day. We are in the midst of teething, getting his top two teeth, and has been pretty inconsolable. Little man didn't want to be out of my arms for very long, and when he was, he was crying like the world had just ended.

Let's hope tomorrow is a better day!!

Happy 39 weeks!!

It's official! Lucas is officially 39 weeks old, which means he has been "out" for as long as he was "in"! Everyone always says you don't remember what life was like before your little one was born, and it's totally true!!

I can't imagine not having Lucas in our lives, and it has been so much fun since he was born! Happy 39 weeks buddy!

We've gone from a little newbie baby...

To our big guy at 9 months!

I can't believe how fast this is going!  Stay little and cute and innocent and my wee baby for ever!!!
