Lucas
Sorry it has been a while. Sometimes the days just go by in a flash and then it has been almost a week.

Last week we were just getting use to the helmet. More me than him. He started 23 hours a day last Friday. He really don't mind it. The worst of it is getting the thing on and off. Not an easy task. He loves to turn his head and wants to look at it. Funny to watch him but so hard to hold him. I have it down now. Daddy has to work at little harder at it and will get a little faster.
Lucas wakes up and usually his head and helmet smells like a dirty sock. Gross. You wouldn't think a cute little guy could smell like a sock. That is the only way to describe it. So I have to wash his head and the helmet also so he doesn't offend.
We go back on Monday to get an adjustment made. The part that was making his check really red doesn't do that but I am still going to see if they can do something with that part.

Lucas is getting really vocal. He carries on his own conversations. I was noticing last night how he is slower than my other boys. It don't bother me a whole lot unless I start thinking about it. All my boys were sitting already and scooting everywhere. Maybe not crawling yet but close. They could also hold their bottles by themselves. He tries but you can see how hard it is for him. He practiced last night with daddy and even put the bottle back in his mouth a couple of times.
I do notice how tiny he is. He isn't growing as quickly now it seems. Lucas sure has a HUGE smile.
He loves to play with his feet now. I know that seems like such a small task to most but to us it is a big step.
Lucas plays on the floor a lot more and is happy about it. He will roll and play so much he will fall asleep. Very cute to see that. One minute I hear him creaking and talking and then he is out.
He loves it outside. So content when we can go outside.  Come on nicer weather.

Sat night we went to Ashton's cub scout ceremony, Ashton is now a Wolf. Graduated from a Tiger. Lucas was a good boy then we left there and went to the races to watch his daddy. He loves the races. He will watch those noisy things go by and then look up at me and grin and do it all over again. His little head just goes from side to side.

I will try and keep you updated a little more often. Hard to do on weekends when we go to Lucas' daddy's. I have no internet and no phone reception.
