We had a nice surprise on Saturday when Uncle Taylor and Grandmama came over. To add to the excitement, Uncle Taylor drove his new truck that Lucas has not stopped talking about! We all went to Chepe's for dinner where Lucas devoured a cheese dip and Grandmama and I devoured some mango margaritas!
On Sunday, we went to the mall to get Lucas some outfits from Gymboree. While I shopped, Daddy took Lucas for a train ride around the mall and then stopped off so Lucas could get on a few of the toys.
We had a very busy and fun Tuesday this week. First, in the morning where we had playgroup over at Mrs. Alisha and Tyler's house. Lucas and Olivia had a great time running around with play golf clubs and Sam and I had a fun time chasing after them before the clubs became a weapon! We then headed down to GiGi's house while Lucas took a short nap in the car. GiGi jumped in our car (Mrs. Kathy followed in her "Hon...Da" as Lucas calls it) and went to watch a softball game at Kennesaw State University where we got to watch cousin Brianna pitch for mommy's favorite school, Georgia Southern!! Lucas was thrilled to see Uncle Sonny, Aunt Janet and Mrs. Lisa from Winder. We haven't seen them in so long and Lucas really got used to hanging out with them while Trinity had her chemo at UGA a few months ago. Lucas did absolutely amazing during the two games and charmed everyone around him. I couldn't believe how well-behaved he was! During the second game, Grandmama arrived to see everyone and then we all went to dinner at Fudruckers.
Gymboree was special this week because Daddy surprised us and took off work to come play. I don't know who was more excited, Lucas or Olivia?! She was so happy that he was there, she followed him around yelling out "Hi, Hi." Both children did great joining in this week's activities; however, Lucas was a little quiet for some reason. I'm so glad that you got to join us this week Daddy!
We also had a special surprise Thursday afternoon when Grandmama stopped by our house after a work event. Lucas loved seeing her when he woke up from his nap! After a failed attempt to get him to eat a snack, we gave in and headed outside. Lucas was pampered and enjoyed full attention from Grandmama who let him do whatever he wanted.
It also happened to be Earth Day and Lucas showed off his shirt to everyone who would look at him. He would randomly tell people to "Re-dI-dol" which means "Recycle". So Happy Earth Day everyone!
The rainy Saturday postponed our plans to go to another Touch-A-Truck event, but we did get to enjoy a nice birthday party instead. Some friends from our old small group had a very special First birthday party for baby Emma. I will never forget when Michelle found out she was pregnant because it was on the day that Lucas was born!Lucas enjoyed the party and got to play with some of the children that he has not seen since we were in small group with the parents. Lucas played with Joshua, who is a few months older, and the boys had a great time pushing all of Emma's new push toys around the house. He also finally got to meet baby Joseph who is 7 months old and has beautiful blue eyes and an adorable smile. Before we left the party, Michelle and I thought it would be cute to get all of the children together on the couch for our traditional kid's picture. I was really surprised at how well all of the children did, especially with that many and of different ages! For some reason, Lucas found one little boy to sit next to and lean on. As a mom, I found it absolutely adorable; however, the little boy was not quite sure what to think of Lucas all over him!
We had a wonderful time at the party Justin and Michelle! Happy Birthday Emma!
