Changes

The weather is changing. I don't think we have a high below the 60's in the forecast for the next 10 days! This is something to celebrate. This means Kenna can get "outsi" at least once a day! This time of year is hard to dress her for, it is almost like she needs one outfit for the morning and one for the afternoon. Saturday and Sunday we spent the majority of the day outside. Kenna and Mom, or I shall say Mom, picked up the gumballs in the back yard while Matt and I cleaned the garage out and Dad tore trim off the walls and painted. Sunday while Dad and Matt were putting up trim in the house we were outside enjoying the sunshine and the water table. Kenna had a great time playing will all of her outside toys!

Bawoon...

So happy for good weather!

Our home is changing! We are so lucky to have such great parents! They are helping us improve our home even more. This weekend the kitchen and living room were on the to-do list. There is still some work to be done, since we are getting new carpet at some point and time. But for now, what is done is beautiful! I can't believe how much a couple coats of paint and new trim can change the looks! Dad put in an incredible amount of work this weekend and we are so happy with the results!

The sports we watch around the house have changed, it's Cardinals season! Although, the Cards aren't looking good so far this year we are still rooting them on! I think baseball has been on the TV the last 8 days! We had John and Charlene over for the opening day. We had fun despite their loss. 

Mckenna is changing every day! She is beginning to understand when she has to go potty. She will come to us and tell us "potty" as she is pulling up on her shirt. We don't deny her the chance to try, although most the time she doesn't go. She has gone pee-pee on the potty twice and last night she went poop! We are not pushing her, just encouraging her. I wasn't expecting this until the end of the summer but she has expressed the interest so I guess we will go with it!

Another, big change and a sad one too. Grandma Tremmel passed away on Monday. She has been battling various things and has been in the hospital for the last 3 weeks or so. She will really be missed, as many of you know she attended all of our special events and Mckenna got to see her almost every week. Here are some precious moments with Grandma Tremmel...

This is definitely a season of change. Love from the Lucas family!
