Eloise the Elephant

Here's Lucas in his new chair from Grandma and Grandpa...such a big boy! And a dancing big boy at that!

P.S. You must think all the child does is watch tv...but we do MANY other activities in a day...really! These are just the ones that end up on video!

9 Months Old!

On Boxing Day I turned NINE months old!!! Wow! I am such a big boy now! My Mommy forgot to take pictures on Boxing Day, so here I am, 9 months + 1 day!

I am a happy boy!

Our Family

...and more Christmas!

Ok, so these are all in the wrong order, but at least they are from the same day...CHRISTMAS!

Cousins playing after dinner!
Sooooo cute!

Lucas adores his big cousin, Paige!

He couldn't take his eyes off of her!

Opening a BIG present with Grandma, Buddy, and Paige!

Another stocking picture from the morning...check out the cute monkey, he LOVES to suck on the nose!

What'cha lookin' for Finn?

Lucie and her new candycane!

I told he likes the nose!

Baby's First Christmas

Ahh, Luc's first Christmas! So much fun with baby! (even though Santa brought Lucas his first cold!) I can only imagine the years to come! :)

Christmas Eve...watching the tube before bed!

Luc's first Christmas tree~after Santa came...did he bring the dead dog with him? Must have been a rough day, Finnegan!

"L" for Lucas (one of his baby friends Mom's made it! So sweet!"

Baby's First STOCKING!

"What is it Daddy?"

All Tuckered Out

After a hard day's play...5:45pm

Merry Christmas to Me!

Our little backwards mover appears to have discovered there's PRESENTS under the tree!
...And so the mischief begins!

Baby Christmas Party

Today I got to go to another Christmas party! This time it was for all my baby friends! Here's some of my favourite shots!
~Lucas

My buddy Carter on the left, Talia in the middle...and ME. I was smitten for Talia today!
What's NOT to love?~look at her little face, and those big blue eyes?

Try getting all three of us to look at the same time...good luck Mommies!

Just a few of my friends! I am NOT a happy camper by this point, it was just too noisy in there! I don't LIKE loud crowds!

Talia's Mom was testing out Talia's new puppet...mmm, ostrich!

My Kitchen Assistant

Lucas is my new assistant in the kitchen....

So innocent!

Deer in the headlights look

"I'm HUNGRY!"

Post-breakdown, looking stunned, but still cute!

A Winter Stroll

Here are some pictures from todays little walk...for those of you who don't live on Vancouver Island...can you spot the snow accumulation we have from the other day?

All bundled up and ready to go!

"Uhhhh, MOM, there's a DOG on my lap!"

"Neat-o...Finnegan is riding with me!"

Back home, and content.

"I sure do love my walks!"

Me and My Dad

This morning we headed off to the Coastland (Daddy's work) Children's Christmas Party. It was a brunch, with clowns for entertainment (I thought that was pretty neat!)...and SANTA was there too. Too bad my Mommy didn't take the camera because I REALLY liked Santa and stayed on his lap longer than all the other kids! Santa liked me too! Here are some pictures of me and my Dad when we got home...booooy was I sleepy!

Gingerbread!

My sweet little niece, Paige, came over this afternoon to decorate gingerbread men, ladies, trees and baby bears! What a good little helper she was. I couldn't resist putting up these pictures of her pretty little face :)

Deep in thought with her Daddy :)

Master decorator!

Now look at that gingerbread "lady" people! Can you find a prettier dress?

The most gorgeous blue eyes I've ever seen!

Cheeeeeeeese!

A little shy with her cousin :)

On to the hot chocolate...

...and WHIPPED cream! :)

Busy Boy

Lucas has had a busy week! From meeting Santa (photos to come!), his weekly trip to baby group...and a trip to Victoria to pick up his new carseat, he hasn't stopped!

Happy boy! Maybe it's because he was up waaaay past his bedtime!

This is best picture I have so far...but it still doesn't capture the true picture of him getting up on all fours! He's getting ready to move people! So far he just pushes himself backward and ends up stuck under the ottoman, the couch, the coffee table....

Mmm, cookie.

Hmm...carrot? Or cookie?
