I have been horrible about keeping up this blog. I've been so busy I actually forgot about it. It is now November and this year is almost over and I have NO idea where this year went to. It has gone by so fast I can't quite believe it.
Lucas is now 10 months old. He has 4 teeth with another 2 pushing their way through. He is crawling ALL over the place. I have to watch him way more closely now because even though I think I have baby proofed my house good enough he always finds something he shouldn't have. Or something mommy didn't clean up good enough. He also is learning to entertain himself more and more which is nice. We have to revamp his toys b/c I think he is getting bored with his baby toys. He still doesn't sleep through the night but I have already decided I probably will never sleep through the night again so it is ok. He is learning new stuff everyday and makes mommy and daddy laugh all the time with his silliness. Right now both Lucas and Daddy are sick with a cold so this momma has been busy taking care of her boys.
Me and Stephen are doing good. Just keeping ourselves busy. I started taking care of my nice a couple times a week so I now watch 2 babies and Lucas. Luckily I usually don't watch them at the same time.
We went to vacation in September. Stephens dad came and visited. It was the first time he met Lucas. We just hung out around Lewistown and enjoyed each others company. Then we went to Fargo and visited Stephens sister. We shopped around Fargo and hung out with his sister. Then off to Detroit Lakes we went. We went to Stephens old church and talked with some of his old friends. We hung around Detroit Lakes and it was so nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of life in Lewistown. We were able to relax and enjoy family time. Even though it stinks living out of a car for a couple days! Then we went up to Grand Rapids and visited friends that used to live in Lewistown. It was so nice to see Jason, Mandy, Miriam, and Danny and Chels. We still miss them very much but it was nice to catch up in person!
Then we had Halloween. Which was great! Brittany came down for the weekend so we got to hang out with her which is always wonderful. Then Lucas was a monkey for Halloween and he was the cutest monkey ever. We went to the nursing home and took him around and then just went to a couple houses trick or treating. It was fun he liked holding his candy basket. We also had a fun night with my nieces Emma and Jordan. We carved pumpkins make cupcakes played with toys and watched silly and not so scary Halloween movies.
That is all that has happened over this way. Staying busy with youth group which has been going great. It was great watching the youth group grow and hopefully it will just keep growing. It is just so fulfilling being able to pour our hearts and lives into these teens.
Getting excited for the holiday seasons! Can't wait to post more on that!
