Next came Lucas. He is a little roly-poly and loves to roll over while getting his diaper changed. He honestly cannot sit still for more than 5 seconds. I bent down to grab a one-sie, and he rolled right off the changing table and landing on all fours. It was like slow motion, I just couldn't get to him fast enough. He seemed fine and so we went about our day. After his second nap I realized he wouldn't walk or stand on his right leg. I made an appointment with our pediatrician, who then sent us to an orthopedic doctor, who then put on a full leg cast. He has a buckle fracture in his tibia. The doctor said it would heal on its own in 4-6 weeks, but Lucas couldn't crawl. Yeah right. Lucas not crawl? I don't think so. We opted for a cast for 3 weeks. And just for the record, white was the only color they had in the baby size. Now everyone will know how dirty our floors really are!
Moving on, we had a robbery next door. I am already scared of the dark and the crazies of the world, but right next door? Yikes. We have an alarm, but it just isn't enough for our peace of mind. So we now have an additional member of our family:
His name is yet to be decided. My vote is Harry. Lucas LOVE LOVE LOVES him. And in a few weeks he will have the scariest bark around!
Wish us luck as begin Puppy Training!

What a week indeed! "Harry" is adorable!!! Good idea to get a guard dog too! Poor little Lucas...isn't it nice though that babies heal so fast...if you had that fracture my dad would be putting you in a cast for 2 months or more! Good luck and if you need any help don't hesitate to call!
Oh that is a cute puppy. I hope he gives you some piece of mind.
Lucas is such a trooper for not complaining with his broken leg. What a tough boy.
Poor Lucas! Just when he got that stupid helmet off. Grace is a mover too, her and Lucas would have some serious fun together. I hope the little man heals quickly. He does look mighty cute with that cast though.
Okay, Your dog is so cute! I need details, woman. How much was he? Is he hypoallergenic? When can I come visit you? Oops, thats not related to the dog, it just slipped right in there. Aaron and I have talked a lot about getting a dog and I was thinking of getting some sort of doodle dog. Anyways, seeing how long this comment is, I'm thinking I should just call you. Love you!
Feel better Lucas!
