It's been busy around here lately, both boys were sick for most of the week. Last Tuesday was supposed to be Ryan's first day of school, but we postponed it so that he could start school on the right foot.
So, Thursday was the big day. Ryan was so excited. He started off with his breakfast of choice (Fruit Loops and a yogurt) and then got dressed. He was incredibly proud that he got to wear big boy underpants on his first day of school. He is completely potty trained now, he even keeps his diaper dry during nap and through the night. We're going accident free for 3 weeks now.
Anyway, I was a wreck and cried when we dropped him off. He, on the other hand, waved bye to me as he ran off to greet his teacher with a hug! Talk about breaking my heart! It was the longest three hours of my life, but he loved it. I think it'll be good for both of us (once I can drop him off without crying).
We were in a rush so we wouldn't be late on the first day so here's my best shot. Pardon the ugly bag, all the kids have to use this bag that they were given.
When Ryan got home from school we had another reason to celebrate. Lucas turned 6 months old! Already! We baked him a "halfy" birthday cake (an idea I stole from Deanna) and had Auntie & Gavin over for dinner.
Little Lucas isn't so little anymore. He weighed in at a hefty 18 lbs at his last appointment. Yes, you read that right, 18 lbs! He is rolling over now and he is just figuring out how to get around in his walker. Before I know it we'll be planning a first birthday.

On Saturday, we decided to check out the new Tellus Science Museum since they have a dinosaur exhibit. Ryan was in heaven of course. Dave and I have been wondering lately how much longer this dinosaur thing is going to last, but it's still going strong.
