It's been awhile

The weather has been so nice in Jeff City that we've been going to the park a few times a week. Lucas loves to play on the swings and go up and down the steps to the slide. He doesn't go down the slide unless Jon or I send him down. After a day at the park I thought Lucas needed a popsicle. So I took his shirt off, put on a bib and he went to town. He ate the whole thing and Loved it!!

He also got to stay home 3 days this week because the Baby sitter's kids were sick. So, I stayed home Monday, Jon on Tuesday and then on Thursday Lucas got to spend the day with Gramma and Daddy. Lucas was very upset to see Gramma and Grandad leave. He kept watching out the window and crying hoping they would come back in.

Jon and I were so fortunate to find a girl that would babysit Lucas for us for a couple of hours so we could go out. Her name is Gabby, and her Mom works with Jon. So around 6:00 last night we dropped him off and we headed to TG's, a bar and restaurant. We met Stacy and Pat for supper and drinks. I work with Stacy and Pat is a policeman for Jeff City. We had a really good time and it was nice to have a kids free night. We picked Lucas up around 9 and Gabby said he had the best time. He was so good for her. Gabby's twin sisters were having their b-day party with their friends so he was flirting with all the girls. They made a circle around him on the trampoline as he jumped. Gabby said all he could say was "jump, jump, jump". He also had cake and ice cream which he liked.

Lucas is also working on saying and pointing to certain body parts. He knows head, eyes, nose, mouth, feet and ears. His talking is a constant thing. We also have his saying "Bubba". I will try and get video of that for everyone to hear.

Happy Mother's Day!!
