10 months old

Lucas is now a 10-month-old baby.  So big!  This month has brought lots of changes.  

He hung out with Grandma Donna, Grandpa Carl, and Uncle Michael, who visited Easter weekend.  
He went through our parenting transition of mama working nights...
(and started sleeping through the nights - lucky papa)
He still loves eating and will eat just about anything

  

Grandma Donna taught him "how big is Lucas? SO big!"
He plays with little farm animals and knows that the cow says "mooo"
He knows what socks are and where they go (he is not very concerned about them matching)
He is CRAWLING! and is quickly on the creep




And perhaps most exciting of all, he said his first word: "creek"

Last summer Grandpa Chuck built this bridge over a small creek that flows next to their house.  
Lucas loves visiting the creek - we visit it at least once a day. 
 Last weekend we went to the Blandford Nature Center and every time we came upon some water (a creek, stream, pond, large puddle) Lucas said "creek."  Was it our imagination or was he really communicating?  We stayed quiet to see what he would do when we saw water next.  He definitely said "keek", slowing down and speaking with intention, different from the sounds he makes for dog or anything else.  His first word!  Certainly makes papa proud.  

Morning coffee and sunshine
