Juat a cute shot

I took this on the 30th so i guess i'll make it his official last picture of the year. I was actually taking pictures for my other blog "true to you" and lucas was ust hammin it up wanting in on the camera action!

Lucas being Lucas ...

We spent our evening over at our friends house with there family. They have been so kind as to adopt us in as family inviting us for Thanksgiving and now Christmas. I again forgot to get my camera out (I'm getting really bad at remembering to take pic's) But here is a video of Lucas being a goof for everyone. He doesn't not mind meeting new people he just goes for it all out.

Christmas morning

We had a great Christmas this year. It was sooo much fun watching Lucas get so excited with every little thing. He actually looks very serious in most of the pictures I took, I guess he felt the need to get down to business and open all the gifts. He was spoiled by all! He got Lots of duck gear, which he loves to wear. Some super stylin other outfits, some Chuck Taylors, books, puzzles, crayons and coloring books, lots of toys all kinds, a basket ball hoop, two wooden trains from his great grandparents (I thought that was funny), and a drum set. He has so many new things to play with! He keeps momma busy picking it all up! He loves the drums. I keep them put away because they are for older kids, but He usually gets to play them a little every day. The video has a bunch of him playing the drums. He just took right to it and loves them. I even got one picture that is great, I figure i better hang on to it in case he becomes a drummer!

12 days of Christmas

Lucas's Papa and Nana sent him 12 days of Christmas this year. It was really neat to have something for him to open every day. This was such a great and thoughtful idea! I don't have it all on video or pictures, but i do have this video of one of the gifts. He loves this guitar and is constantly walking around with it just dancing up a storm. Day one Lucas got a tube on M&M's and was so excited I think it may still be his favorite gift! He screams and dances when i give him 1 M&M. it cracks me up! Plus for probably a week after that everything he opened he would say "mmmmmmm" thinking he was getting something yummy. I am not sure of the order of all the other gifts but there was a rose bowl duck shirt, duck pj's a duck blanket, several books, a phonics bus with frogs, whoppers, and an Oregon duck call, I feel like I'm forgetting something but i guess thats what i get for slacking and not posting until now. anyway It was a very neat idea and Lucas loved every second of it!

ole' Santa at his post

That was the title of the news paper article that was in the hutch news paper along with a photo of Lucas and myself visiting with Santa. Our neighbor dresses up every year and sits out side every night passing out candy canes to kids as they come by to look at the lights. I did not realize it was the news when i went down to say hello, but anyway thats what came of it. I was recognized all over town with Lucas that day ... that there tells me i live in way to small of a town!

Aunt Taylor and Uncle john's Visit

I did not take any pictures while tate and john were here, shame on me. but Taylor did take a few. We had a great time while they were here, I guess maybe thats why we didn't think to snap a few shots. anyway here is what we do have.

The Thizzle

One thing that Lucas loves to do is dance. and while aunt Taylor and uncle John were out Taylor discovered that Lucas dances just like this one dance called the "thizzle" I had not ever heard the song and I did not post the video due to content, how ever if you want to look it up you can find it in youtube under thizzle. I had told Taylor, even thought I don't really go out dancing anymore If i did go I'd have to be careful not to just go bust out Lucas's moves. At least now I know if i do it's a west coast dance and it has a name so it's all good .... right??

Talking to Papa

Lucas loves talking to his family on skype, this is a lil video of him chatting with his papa. pretty sweet.
