Cuteness strikes again!

Who am I exactly?

I am a smiley little guy who loves baseball and fake keys...

I am a crrrrrrazy chubby dude...

I will eat the face off of any rubber mushrooms you put in my way...

I am cozy blue-eared cutie.  I am LUCAS!

I'm also very tired, enough with this post.

Model?

Apparently Lucas has been taking lessons in the Sears/JC Penny school of catalogue modeling


That, or he just like to kick it on the couch resting on one elbow, while sporting a corduroy jacket.



Ooh - a knee grab! Get this guy an agent!

powers

First Lucas used his Heros-esque power to make me pet Tank

Next?  He lures Tank with those blue eyes

aaaaaand

Gotcha!

Proof

... of a recent gang meeting between Risky and Lucas across the fence. His clenched left fist? I think it means "Stop talking while the camera is out"

Drool much?

If you have met Lucas in person, you may have noticed some drool action in the mouth/chin area.   Well, here is some proof that his drool can travel well beyond his face.

It starts slooooowly drooping down off the chin.

The drool eventually makes it way to the ground

DETOUR - drool made it to Lucas's right foot

And finally, the trail makes it way across his chest to the left arm

Stop the drool!!!!!!

Head!

We know that Lucas's head is large, but did you know it can grow within seconds???

Yikes!

A couple of milestones

Lucas continues to hit milestones.  While he isn't crawling yet, he is definitely rolling - this was his first adventure to the bathroom.  The bathroom doorway  at least.

Who is this hungry guy?  That would be Lucas's first hard food - some Baby Mum Mum.  Mmmmmmm.

What up?

Shoes!

He he.  My shoes have hippos on them...

Hippos are soooo relaxing

Ahhhhhhhh.  

Ack!  I'm just a little baby on a bench!

Rumble goes down at Galvin Park

The two champs are brought in to the rumble on separate Grandparents

Grandpa Jim says.. GO!

"Hey Sparrow, there is something awesome over your shoulder"

"Oh, you don't see it?"

"Take that!  Now your dress will be wrinkled.  BOO YAH."

Another morning with Lucas

Yup, its another morning with Lucas.  Looks like he got up a little earlier than he should have.

A little surprised by the camera, huh dude?  Tank was up playing with us too.

Lucas looks more relaxed with his favorite book

Ooooor, with his hand to chew on.

Is it nap-time yet? 

Sparrow is 1!

Cousin Sparrow is already 1!!!   

While she is about 80% older than Lucas right now, his giant head makes them look similar in age.

Of course everyone that turns 1 wants one thing - cake!

Aaaaand here it is...

Mmmmmmm

Big sister Sequoia was not to be outdone in the messy eating contest
Meanwhile, we had to employ a Gathman to restrain Lucas from leaping at the cake (well, he can roll).  Thanks, Gianna.

A quick family pic of the Richmond Faminis.  Only 5 more months before Lucas gets a cake of his own!

Doctor Gorchoff

Congrats to Auntie Sara.  Thats Doctor Auntie Sara to you!

Backpack!

Time for another hike.  Hey, whats that on my ear?

Its a sleeping Lucas!  He is finally ready for the backpack (though I wasnt quite ready for the 25lb-ish total load)
We found out that a sleeping baby's floppy head flops a lot on declines.  Luckily Lucas inherited his dad's hard noggin. 

Awake!   Yay for hikes!.
