Cookie Day

The boys & I went to my moms to make cutout cookies. That was a tradition when I was little & I want to carry it on with my boys (nothing wrong with boys baking!). Keldan liked mixing it and Lucas enjoyed trying to eat it. We made them before naps then they were ready to ice when they woke up. Keldan would ice one then he would eat it...glad he got bored after the 3rd one. My grandma came down & helped too.

Randomness

Thanks to one of my awesome sis-in-laws I was able to get more storage without paying, lets just say I'm excited! These are random photos that I took the beginning of December. I downloaded them wrong so they go backwards.





He brought the bear (he calls him yogi bear) and the blanket & wanted it wrapped up like a baby. He carried it around & would rock him.

They climbed in to Grammies cupboard...yes Lucas did this himself too.

They were quiet and I thought they were getting in to trouble only to find them reading :)


Keldan climbed in this one day and was driving around. Shocked me because he usually doesn't climb in to things.


Lucas loves to tackle & wrestle with Keldan



Keldan loves the snow..Lucas not so much. He was crawling as fast as he could up the steps to get back in the house.




My parents new puppy, Princess.




Baby Jesus say cheese (he wanted me to take a picture of jesus in his hand)



Lucas & the spegg face

Our dramatic story teller :)

They love to look out the window



So I have many MANY more pictures to share but I have run out of picture space in the blog. We are trying to decide whether $5 a yr is worth it... So there won't be any updates for awhile. Happy New Years to everyone!

12 Months

Happy 12 months Lucas! So amazing how much those little chubbers & marshmallows melt my heart! I can't believe he is 1 year & Keldan is 2.5 yrs. Just a quick update on Lucas...

*25lbs; 31in long

*Completely off bottles :) In a way I'm so excited and then in another I'm not because its just another reminder he is no longer a baby.

*Eats everything & anything! Loves food.

*Walking everywhere, getting better at the running thing. Loves to be chased. Stands up really good without holding on to anything, can squat and stand back up. 

*Tackling more of the climbing. Can climb on kid chairs, has learned to push toys close to couch or table and climb on that to get up (he's no dumby thats for sure!)

*Only have to show him things once and he knows what to do.

*I saying quite a few words now. He often will repeat something Keldan says, but then he won't say it again so I'm not sure if I can say those words are in his vocabulary yet. Definitely says dada, mama, baba (bottle- if he sees a pic of one he will say it), puppy, bubye (and waves), al do (all done), uhoh, papa, ball, aha. He has learned to smack his lips if he wants more, point and say ehh if he wants something, makes car noise, and says huh if you ask him something. 

*Gets very proud of himself if he does something. Loves to show you what hes playing with.

*Extremely ornery. Listens fairly well now, but when that silly streak hits him, he will stare at me, while slowly doing something he knows he shouldn't (sometimes hard not to laugh at that).

*Torments Keldan! They get along so well, love to play with each other. Sometimes he likes to take Keldan's car or something that he is playing with and will laugh (so ornery!)

*His absolute favorite thing is dancing & music. Loves to play the guitar & hit things like drums.
