June was a big month for Lucas...he started eating solids! We noticed him watching us very closely when we were eating and he kept grabbing at our glasses and pulling them to his mouth. So one night we gave him a bit of rice cereal...and he loved it! He thinks eating is a blast and has even figured out how to drink out of a cup. The quickly found out that the down side to all of this is that no cup, glass, can, or mug is safe if Lucas is within grabbing distance.
Another milestone Luke learned this month was sitting up unassisted. I have to say it is so nice to be able to set him down and watch him play without having to prop him up with so many pillows. I guess the laundry basket training really does work! He was pretty much sitting unassisted within two weeks of starting it!
A little light reading in bed...
Week one of basket training:)
Hanging out with Dad and Hutch
6 Month Soup Can Pictures!
Playing at Grandpa & Grandma Schmeets's cabin during moving week.
Bathtime!
Getting a little sun with Grandpa Fellman
Leanring lots of tricks from older cousin Thomas (9 month)
We were able to attend a family reunion for Kathy's family. Luke had fun meeting everyone and relaxing in the hot sun! Here he is relaxing with Auntie Jill.
We spend the week of the 4th at the lake and Lucas really enjoyed the sun and water. Here he is hanging out on the deck.
And enjoying a book with Dad.
Enjoying some time with Uncle Kevin.
These next three pictures make me laugh because it really shows the stages these two are in. Watch as Lucas slowly loses the red wheel he's chewing on...and appears to be completely confused by what happened. Luke you'll just have to get quick like your cousin!
And I had to add this picture of Eric attempting to nap. This is a prime example of what happens when a parent of three tries to get some quiet time. If Julie had been in that hammock trying to nap it would have been even worse!
Driving the boat...take us to the sandbar Lucas!
Having a bath in Grandma Fellman's sink.
This little laundry basket was the perfect size for Lucas to sit in and play in the cool water. He loved having his very own little pool.
And every time we got him on the boat this is what happened in a matter of 5 minutes.
Getting into no good on Grandma Fellman's table.
4th of July
Lucas hanging out with the dogs. (Hutch and Chunk)
All the little kiddos...I love this picture because it is so real.
Again...falling asleep.
Having fun at Zorbaz with a family friend.
Breakfast on the deck with Grandpa Fellman
First time playing in the sand.
I think it was a hit!
In his private pool again.
And this is what happens when you play too hard at the lake...
And next week we get to spend time at the Schmeets cabin when Stuart and his family come home. Horray for summer!
(Thanks Auntie Jill for the picture!)
