Father's Day

A little look back at Father's Day '09...

"Just Me And My Dad"

Mr. Pudge himself. And check out that BLACK hair! Boy has it ever lightened!

Hahahahahahaha.

"Happy Father's Day, Daddy! Here's your card"

Tissue paper tickles!!!

Time for the park! "Hmm, what's this?"

(He thoroughly enjoyed pulling all the heads off the dandelions)

Mommy hugs

Daddy hugs....and whisker tickles. Lucas really gets giggling when the whiskers come near!
I need to get it on video!

"Look, I know where my belly-button is!"

"Wait for me, guys!"

(The grass phobia has finally ceased)

"Whooooa, this is some deep grass"

Not liking the long journey to get to Daddy!

Rathtrevor Beach

Firstly, you may have noticed the blog "scenery" has changed again. I like a change now and again in my colours/fonts and this brand new template is nice and 'fresh'. What do you think of it? Better than the black?

This afternoon we headed of to Parksville for a visit with family and some beach playtime. It was a big hit with Lucas! He looooved playing in the sand. He had so much fun!

"Here's a rock for you, Daddy!"

He's got that 'you've got to be kidding me' look going on!

Miss Madisyn!

Watching the sand fall out of the shovel.

"...and here's a little sand for your shirt Madisyn!"

Allan and Paige :)

Ok, so nobody is looking, but this picture was to show how much Lucas loves his (Great)Uncle Gary. He's just like one of the kids!

This one explains itself. Yikes!

Paige...in the hole that Uncle Gary dug!

Beban Park

Yesterday was a gorgeous afternoon, so Lucas and I decided to hit the park, while Pat.......dug holes for fence posts. Yuck!

"Do we need any cookbooks for the park, Mom?"

"I've got my shoes on, are you ready?"
(He really does try to put his shoes on...and socks too. Is he anywhere near successful? No. But he gets the concept.)
Right before I took this photo, I sprayed sunscreen on him and rubbed it in. Once he watched me do that, he rubbed his legs, then his hair, legs, then hair. Sigh. To start out the day, he put peanut butter toast in his hair!


First time at Beban Park...I think he liked it!

Cool car Lucas!

Welcome Home!

Welcome home Auntie Mel and Uncle Carlo!!!

We can't believe 3 months has come and gone already, you must feel the same!

Happy 10 loads of laundry :)

"I'm so sad I can't see you right now!"

Ok, so I know he's not looking at the camera...but have any of you tried to take pictures of a moving target like this one? :)

Blurry...but that's what you get when you have a speed demon on your hands!

A Rare Sight

NEWSFLASH: Our child actually had an afternoon nap today...and it was without a fight. 2:15, lights out. After 2.5 hours, I decided it was time to wake that boy up..it was nearly 5pm!
Rarely do we get to see this...

So peaceful, so sweet.

Sigh. How do you wake that sweet boy when he's so peaceful?

With difficulty. He was so groggy!

Buds

Remember these boys?

Carter (and his Mom, of course!) came over again today. The boys mostly play on their own, but did play together a few times, which was cute! Just hangin' out

"Sooo, what'cha wanna do today Lucas?"


Hmm...

"How about a kiss?"

"We can't sit still anymore!"

Wrestle time

"Waa, he's sitting on me!"

"That's it, we're OUTTA' here!"

Another Haircut

The time has come again for another haircut, so that's just what we did today! The poor, poor hairdresser. This time Lucas screamed the entire time and I'm sure the entire mall could hear him too! Yikes.

Pre-haircut chase around the kitchen with Mommy.

2 ? Is that how old he'll be when he stops screaming for haircuts?

"C'mon Mom, stop taking my piiiiicture"

He sure loooves his ball popper!

...except when the balls don't come out fast enough!

"What do you think of my new cut?"
