Baby Lucas

Wednesday, May 20, 2009

Today we went to Down Town Los Gatos to the fountains to play with other moms and their kids from MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers).  Lucas had a blast and got soaked.  I don't know why we don't go there more often.  It was a lot of fun and Lucas could run around and get out a lot energy.  Lydia pretty much sat in the stroller and fell asleep eventually.  She is having a hard time with teething/diaper rash still.  

Of course I had my camera but didn't take a single picture.  I am trying to get better about taking pictures!

I thought things were going great until we started walking to the car.  I can't tolerate it when Lucas will not stay by me when we are walking next to a busy road.  He was crawling behind benches while trying to stay on the curb next to on coming traffic.  I tell him nicely that he needs to stay by me or get on the stroller.  Well, to make a long story short I ended up carrying a crying/screaming 3 year old a couple of blocks to the car (next time I need to park closer).

Today was pretty challenging with the both of them.   Lydia was pretty uncomfortable all day long.  I think she will be getting her first tooth soon.  Lucas got his around this time.  It was really hard for me to see her like that because she is so happy usually. It just broke my heart that I couldn't do anything for her.  

Lydia is now rolling ever where.  She is getting into everything with in reaching distance.  She finally mastered going from her tummy to her back.   She also enjoys watching Lucas play.  Sometimes he will do something that will make her giggle.  When she does that Lucas will try really hard to get her to laugh again.  It is the sweetest thing.

Today Lucas and Lydia were laying on Lucas' bed and Lucas told me to go away.  I went out the door and stood there so I could see what he was doing.  She didn't have anything on but a diaper and so he continued to blow on her belly.  I made sure I got it on video.  

Lucas is starting to get the idea of going on the potty and I have my fingers crossed that this will be it.  I'm hoping that since his friends are potty training, he will think that he should too.
