Reading Already

As you can see, Lucas has good literary taste. He tried a Newsweek, but the New Yorker had a more agreeable aftertaste.

Tons of new pictures (just 14)

Lucas and family are doing quite well. Here's Lucas practicing for crawling. We are terrified that he may be mobile in a month or so!




At least all that exercise gets him tired.


Finally we got a picture of his two teeth. He is currently working on some more. Needless to say, he is a little more difficult while teething.


He can now sit in his car and play.


He loves rolling around on the floor. He can now roll in all directions, which is how he gets around.



Here's Lucas hanging out on his mat sitting on his own. He's taken a few tumbles, but for the most part can sit up unassisted.


More pictures of Lucas eating.



Mia came by today to see if Lucas wanted to go for a ride with her in her new wagon. Though still in his pajamas, he couldn't refuse.



After all that fun, a nap is in order. Hope he sleeps longer than 20 minutes!

Tin Man and other photos

Hello again. It's been some time since I have updated the blog, we have been traveling, busy with baby, life, etc. Lucas is doing very well, teething and all. I still haven't been able to get a picture of his teeth, he moves too much! So instead here's a picture of him with one of his many toys.

The tin foil keeps out transmissions from outer space. He learned that from me. Actually, the foil came about while Lucas and I sat around waiting for Ellen's rehearsal to end. We were both pretty bored, so obviously we had to put the foil to good use. He eventually fell asleep (without the foil).

Lucas's eating of solids is progressing very well. He masted rice cereal and has done avocado, bananas, and will soon start sweet potatoes or peas. Here he is enjoying his avocado.

He likes grabbing the spoon, just doesn't know how to use it. I am happy to say that he loves his solids.

Like every other year, we had our end of season picnic at work. Only this year, Lucas came along. Here he is with Kate, and Shieh-Jian in the background. How can he ignore Lucas's charm?!?


That's more like it! As a side note, the building behind them is the world renowned Kleinhans Music Hall, but I am sure most of you recognized it!

This next one is a horrible picture of me, but it's a good picture of father and son bonding while watching TV. Just have to teach him how to fetch a beer.

Finally here's Lucas in his car seat. I think he is getting a little too big for his infant car seat. He doesn't really like being in it too much. We just bought him a new one, just have to get around to putting it in the car. He better like the new one because it is good up to 65 pounds, which for Ellen and me was sometime in high school!!

Getting Big

I recently refloored Lucas's room. The old floor was painted and not in good shape. Hopefully we can move him into his room soon!

For the past few weeks Lucas has been putting EVERYTHING into his mouth.

We figured he was telling us he was ready for solids. So we tried some rice cereal.

He didn't really care for it, so we'll hold off on the solids for a little longer. Turns out he is chewing on everything in sight because he has a tooth coming out!! Explains all the drooling and fussiness. I'll try to get a picture of his tooth later.

So to ease the pain he's turned to beer. Takes the edge off, but makes him sleepy.


Here he is looking cute in his red parka.

In other developmental news, he can now sit up on his own as long as he puts his arms down.


But the moment the hands come off the ground... down he goes!

He likes his Kat. Sometimes she likes him too.

Weather too nice to post!!

Okay, sorry for the lack of updates. Been trying to spend time with my son rather than admiring his blog! But I wont send you off empty handed. Here are some pictures from the past few weeks.


Abuela Lourdes came to Buffalo last month. She had not seen Lucas since he was a few hours old.


He now likes hanging out in his Bumbo, playing with his toys.

And finally, he is big enough for his jumper!! (thanks Shieh-Jian)


Lucas quit smoking a few months ago, but he still gets the cravings.


He has been getting lots of floor time lately, not because we are lazy parents but because he loves it.
