Spring in New York

We have been blessed with a warmer than normal spring here in Northern New York. It has been great to be outside and feeling the warm air. Here are a few pictures to let everyone know what we've been up to these last few months.














Lucas is doing amazingly well. His language development continues to amaze me. Everything is in a complete sentence now with the incorrect word thrown in from time to time. Words like where, when, who...are still confusing to him. Pronouns are now used, though not always the correct gender, which is funny to hear. There are some phrases that we use everyday that Lucas thinks are just one single word. For example, he says "wash your hands" as "washuands". His tooth brush is his "brusher", he wears a "dress" because we tell him to to get "dressed" and he puts his pants and shirt on, so they must be his dress, right?.
He has a great imagination which might come back to haunt him, or us, someday. He will sit there and tell a story about him and daddy going hunting, getting bit by a deer and shooting it with a yellow gun as if it were 100% true. If you didn't know better you would believe it, scary! I'll have to remember how good he is a lying when he becomes a teenager.

  3. That's so funny. My little ones do the same things about getting dressed and wearing a dress. We're still working on that one.
