April 2012

I feel like in April Lucas really started to grow and devolop his personality.  He has become quite the chatterbox and is so interactive now.  It is such a fun time (but then again I've said that about every month!)

When I first started putting him in his exersaucer he looked at me like, "So...you want me to play with this stuff or what?"

He loves to hang out in dad's big leather chair.

Of course Hutch is by his side 24/7.  They will be best friends in a few years.

Reading with Grandma Fellman

I love this outfit...thank you Auntie Julie!

Lucas and Sophie have become very close friends...mostly because he realized she was chewable.

He really wanted to see himself in the mirror.

Practicing rolling over.  It's always more fun in a diaper and socks!  And if you'll notice how he has decided to use the blanket as an assistive device...smartie pants:)

Future Twins fan?  I think so!

Pre-bathtime with dad:)

Luke loves bathtime.  I remember when we first brought him home and he screamed when we bathed him...now he gets mad when we take him out.

Playing with soft blocks while mom makes dinner is a daily thing.

Enjoying some tummy time

Snuggling with Grandpa Schmeets

He also loves snuggling and going on a house tour with Grandma Schmeets.  So many new things to see.

We spent our first weekend of the season at the lake.  It was a little rainy but we made the most of it with a huge BBQ rib dinner.  Luke supervised the grilling in the garage.

John's boss's daughter loved taking care of Lucas the night of the rib dinner.  She read to him and sat in the nursery room the entire time while he fell asleep.  She is such as sweet girl.

Waking up and checking email with Grandpa Fellman at the cabin.

Falling alseep in Grandma Schmeets's arms.  What a wonderful place to be.
