Happy 2nd Birthday Lucas!

Could TWO whole years have passed already?

Lucas, when he was just a few wee days young.

Lucky on his first birthday, chocolate bliss.

Grover in January. (Must do 2 year portraits soon!)

two random facts about Lucas right now~

1. The boy loves shoes. He hugged my red ballet flats the other day. While I was wearing them. He tried on Sugar's teeny moc-crocs from Target last night. Of course they didn't fit, but he didn't care.

2. He is starting to repeat phrases. The funniest phrase of his right now is "What'd you say?!!?" Especially while holding a plastic pirate sword at you.

What today's Birthday looks like~

• Monkey Bread for breakfast
• Nana & Abuelo come over in the early afternoon for presents and cake
• Chuck E. Cheese for pizza and rides
• lots of hugs and kisses

Here are some pics from Lucas' first night in the Big Boy Bed. He kind of cried pitifully for a couple minutes, but he's done pretty well!




Seth has also made the jump and is sleeping on the top bunk. He just started a few nights ago. We've made him promise to call us if he needs help for the bathroom and such. I'm still nervous, but so far, so great!

The Photo Challenge at TDC is "Something Old." Here's mine.... They say "All Old Things are New Again," right?


This side table was my great-grandfather's side table. (it was stained dark mahogany) After I got married my grandmother gave it to me for us to use in our bedroom. A couple years ago we re-did our bedroom and got 2 new side tables, so this one went in the basement. Now we are setting up our little girl's nursery, and we decided to use it, and paint it white, and replace the old metal knob with a vintage clear glass knob.

I'm so embarrassed at how messy that background is.... but I know ya'll realize it's b/c the nursery is all torn apart, moving Lucas from one room to the other, and painting, and.....
