So I have been informed by a friend that I have yet to write an updated blog (thanks britt) so here one is......
Lucas is 7 1/2 months old and he is just growing and getting bigger all the time. He is becoming quite the chunk. Its cute. He now has his 2 bottom teeth. They are quite cute now when he smiles! He loves to be the center of attention and he loves to make us laugh. He hasn't crawled yet but he is starting to become more interested in moving around more but he is still my cuddle bug. This past month he had his first real sickness he had a pretty bad ear infection and now that it is over I NEVER want it to come back. I had never been so tired in my life and lucas was so sick and helpless it was just so sad to watch him be sick. Well I had woken up in the middle of the night to him running a fever and we gave him some tylenol and he still had one in the morning so we took him to the er and she said she couldn't see his whole ear but what she could see was a little infected so she gave us some antibiotics which made him poop like crazy btw...and so he had his fever off and on from a thursday night to a saturday night...and we were doing medicine pretty much around the clock we had to give him his antibiotics every 12 hours tylenol every 4 and motrin every 6 hours and let me tell you each time was horrible b/c lucas did not like it at all...but anyway we went to the doctor that monday to make sure everything was healing up ok and found out the his ear infection was just horrible and we would have to extend his antibiotics some more but after another week of torture we went to the doctor and he was all cleared up! So hopefully we won't see another one of them anytime soon.
Stephen and I have just been working on house projects we cleaned out the basement of the trash we did some more decorating in our room we are working on some outside yard stuff. We have just been trying to incorporate more family time in our busy schedule.
We have a new niece she was born Aug. 17. She was 6 lbs 13 oz and she was 19 in. long. She is a little thing and super cute. Michelle only had to do 2 pushes and the baby was out. I feel like she had it pretty lucky! She is just so little she seems like she has no meat on her bones she legs are like little toothpicks. I guess I'm just not used to such a little baby b/c lucas was just a big boy when he was born.
Not much else is going on right now school starts next week here and so youth group and such should start to pick up so we will keep ourselves busy with that. That is pretty miuch it for now. Oh and on the book race me and stephen are having as of right this second we are tied but i should be finishing a book today so..
