Where does the time go??

Alex and I were talking the other night about how incredibly fast time goes by. We recently celebrated another wedding anniversary, Lucas hit his 9 month birthday mark, and the holidays seem to be right around the corner once again!

Over the weekend, we enjoyed a wonderful and spiritually fulfilling few days of General Conference. Lucas napped the first session on each day, and played quietly (most of the time lol) during the second sessions. Each time the choir would sing, he would seem almost transfixed by their beautiful sound. He would sit there and listen & you could tell he felt the happiness and peace from their songs. Lucas is changing so fast, I almost can't keep up! He has 5 teeth, 2 on top and 3 on the bottom, and another on the bottom is cutting through. He says "Dadda" nonstop, loves to play with kitchen 'toys' such as measuring cups and serving spoons, and can sit up and play all on his own. He really, REALLY loves books! A family member recently gave him a "Touch and Feel Noah's Ark" book that has swatches of different animal textures. He especially loves the soft bunny one. He's weighing almost 22 pounds and counting! He's a healthy, active, and happy little boy!




We went to visit a sister of mine in college, and she took us to this beautiful river filled with ducks! Lucas absolutely loved it! We dipped his feet into the river & he actually handled it pretty well. We only dipped his feet in it for a few moments because the water was pretty cold, but he really loves being outdoors.
