Update 6/30/09

Well, Lucas is growing like a weed! I haven't had him weighed in a month, but he was 9 lbs 5 oz way back then, so I think it's safe to say that he's up over 10 lbs now! :) His 8-wk appointment will be in two weeks - can you believe that he's 6 weeks old already? This mama can't! Wow. He is really starting to express himself, which is so fun. He tracks our movement now with his eyes and moves his head to follow us around the room, and also has started smiling and cooing at us (which the big boys just love!) The big boys like to 'interpret' for me and tell me what he's really saying - too cute!

Caleb and I have been hanging out since Noah is at camp this week Mon-Wed. It's amazing how easy Caleb is and how fun he is when Noah is not around!! He actually gets to talk and express himself, and can play with any toy he wants to without a "Hey, that's mine!" fight over it. I'm loving that!

Haven't heard a peep from the camp, so I'm assuming Noah is having a great time with the other three children from our church. He went to camp last year, but that camp has gotten too expensive for us/our church family ($200 for three days?!?!) so they went to a different camp this year. I visisted the camp with our director of Children & Family ministries way back before I had Lucas and it's a GREAT camp, just smaller (and better, in my opinion!) We'll see what Noah says when he gets home later today.

Jeff is working hard at church, although a few less hours now that summer is here and we take a break with our Wednesday night programming. He had last Sunday off because we were hanging out with his sister Christy and her family and his parents. Todd and Christy and the girls were in town from Long Island, NY. We went down to his parents' last week Sunday evening through Wednesday - had a great time! We went to the MN Zoo on Monday - it's a huge zoo and took most of the day; then to Lego Land at the Mall of America so Noah could spend some birthday money that evening. Then Tuesday we went to the Water Park of America - largest water park in America; then Wednesday we came home and crashed until Friday when Jeff's family came up to Duluth for Friday/Saturday. :) We went to Gooseberry falls on Friday, then hung out on Saturday. Needless to say, we all crashed on Sunday/Monday. :) Even Lucas slept a lot both of those days!

That's it for this update! Hope everyone is having a great summer!
