Slurpeeee

Today Lucas had his first Target Slurpee... and I'm sure it won't be his last. His new thing is to point and say, "It-sa". It will be interesting to see if next time we are at Target if I get a point towards the Slurpees and a "it-sa".

I tried to get a picture of him with his red mustache, but instead it is just me and my boy...

Happy Friday!

Yummy....

Sara discovered a new favorite thing... Popcorn Girl. So good, so cheap, the PERFECT snack. They have several different flavors. For instance, we had ranch and buffalo wings on Monday at our Bachelor night. Today I needed some chocolate. I am talking serious NEED here people. And who came to my rescue? Who better than Sara and The Popcorn Girl! Sara always knows when and how to swoop in and save the day. Today's combination was chocolate covered popcorn--the perfect sweet and salty combo.

So here we are:

Thanks ladies for helping me today!

Park play Date

We have been loving the beautiful spring weather! When Jude asked us to meet him at the park, how could we resist?














Jude LOVES the sand.... But Lucas only likes it at the beach










Jude and his cute mama Sara












Thanks Jude for such a fun play date!

Lakers or Suns

We have an ongoing debate in our house... Lakers or Suns. I grew up a Laker fan and Andy a Suns fan. Tonight after eating dinner at CPK we ventured over to Old Navy. They now have their basketball T Shirts in and of course I bought a Lakers shirt that I can wear during their three-peat.
(ignore my arms... No idea what's going on)


And naturally, Andy bought a Suns shirt. So the question remains... What shirt did we buy Lucas? By default Suns won because they were out of Lakers in Lucas' size. But fear not dad, once Lucas is old enough to decide he will choose the correct purple... And he'll be saying laker girlsssss in no time!







**Side note... If you ever hear us call Lucas "Sun Boy" it's because whenever we have this debate, Andy always says, "Lucas is a Sun Boy!!" referring to the Phoenix Suns. And now the name has stuck.**

Kipper Time

Lucas is a little bit obsessed with Kipper. He watched it once on Netflix and has been hooked ever since. Of course he still loves Mickey Mouse--but nothing compares to Kipper. The past few times we have watched it I have filmed Lucas because we think it is hilarious how excited Lucas gets. As soon as we turn on the Playstation and he sees the red Netflix screen he knows exactly what is about to happen and he starts gearing up... and on our iPad he knows how to touch the netflix app. Not to worry... he only gets to watch it before bedtime and when mommy showers!

Planting Day

Our seeds have been growing like crazy over the past weeks. So much so that the roots were growing out of the pots. Andy has been working around the clock to get the garden spot ready and pH balanced. So today we spent the afternoon planting (This afternoon was supposed to be spent at pre-op appointments for my tonsillectomy surgery on Friday.... But surgery was postponed. So we gardened instead!).

Placing the plants where we wanted them






Lucas LOVED playing outside... He is such a boy. He played with a crayon and a rock all afternoon.





Notice the dirt on bus lip... He liked eating it. Gag.





Helping mom and dad...
























The hard part is over.... Now we just have to cross our fingers that something actually grows! And if everything does grow, we will need some help eating all this food!

Lucas 14 Months

Tonight we tried to capture Lucas' "tricks"- but he wasn't in the mood. I thought it was cute anyway.... so here you go mom! (and anyone else still reading our blog!)
