Busy Day at the Office

Lucas is very quickly building up his vocabulary, he has lots of sounds (especially animal sounds - snake is my favourite right now, buzz is pretty good too) here is a list of some of his favourite words, they go pretty much in order of the amount of times I hear them in a day

• No
• Mom
• Go
• Door
• Car
• Mad (Aunt Elissa gave him a book "I Was So Mad" and he loves to repeat that word)
• Boo
• Bye
• Hi
• Yeah
• Nana

A few we are working on

• Lucas "ts"
• Banana "B"
• Bath "Ba"
• Nose "No"
• Pants "P"
• Cracker "CuCu"
• Dad still "G"
• Water "G"
• Socks "G"
• Shoes "G"
• Drink "G"
• Lights "G"
• Do you see a patern here?

Lucas got all dressed up for church on Sunday in a vest from Uncle Sean. Unfortunately Church did not go so well, Lucas was not a happy camper.


After looking at these photos, taken after church, he had a lot of work to do so couldn't concentrate at church and needed to get home to take care of business. Little man taking after his "G" already - future accountant

Bumps, Bruises and Tears

Little Lucas has been walking everywhere but he thinks he can go faster than he can, which means a lot of falling. The poor kid just can't get it through his head that he needs to learn to walk before he can run.

We have had a lot of rain lately which means trying to find things inside to do - Lucas gets a little antcy when he can't go outside so I am thinking making more use of the rain coat and maybe investing in some gumboots so he can actually take advantage of being out in the rain, not sure I want to be out in the rain though. We have been spending some time in the library, Lucas loves the beads on the wire toy there. He insists on sitting on the seats and using the table.

Elissa and Sean came over to visit with Lucas. Elissa is Lucas's best friend, he gets so excited to see her and shows her everything he has, new or old. He loves playing with her hair and having her read stories to him. The other weekend Elissa took Lucas to Kelly Tarlton's to see the fish - sounded like he had a great time. He made sure to let Elissa know what a penquin says - he made it up himself so only he knows.

Lucas has started to take after me, he hates getting out of bed!!!

Peter had a new injury in hockey the other night, his chin split open again, so he has a nice new scar to add to his collection.

We are still working on selling the house and have signed on with a new agent, hoping for some better luck this time, fingers crossed. It is unfortunate that we bought in the top of the market and are now selling in the bottom.
